OutlineBackground
− Carbon nanotubes
− Novel antimicrobial properties of CNTs
Novel CNT Filters for Water Treatment
− Point-of-Use application
− Novel application for organic removal
Conclusion
……Research and technology to controlor develop at the atomic, molecular or macromolecular levels, in the length scale
National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI)
Nanotechnology?
macromolecular levels, in the length scale of 1 - 100 nanometer range…….
There is plenty of room at the bottom………All things will not simply scale down in proportion.
