nanotechnology (manipulation of living or inert matter, at the nanoscale, ie atoms and molecules) emerges as a pivotal technology in key areas such as water purification and desalination.
Mark Modzelewski, director of Lux Research, nanotechnology industry analyst said on March 22, 2005 at UPI that the main aquifer suffered a process of increasing salinization due to agriculture, while is expected that the demand for fresh water grows 70% in the next 25 years. Face salinity and industrial pollution problems and fecal Modzelewski believes that only nanotechnology can address these problems simultaneously.
nanotechnology development:
1) KX Industries, Connecticut, has developed nano-membrane filters based on antiviral and antibacterial. The basic principle is that the pores of the membranes are so small that they can filter up to the smaller agencies.
2) Stanford Argonide The company makes aluminum nanofibers, whose positive charge attracts microbes loaded negatively. Other constructions include materials that undergo fotocatalicos filtered water to ultraviolet light, potentially destroying industrial solvents, pesticides and germs.
3) WATER TREATMENT:
Another discovery is produced in Singapore nanometers of a material that could help the costs of a water flotation were not so expensive. The new material uses a nanotechnology able to control matter on a smaller scale to a micrometer, using tiny crystals whose small size allows them to capture a greater amount of unwanted matter in the water.
4) NANOTUBES WATER, WATER NOT FREEZE:
: On the other hand, scientists from the Department Intense Pulsed Neutron Source at Argonne have found a new form of water called water of nanotubes. This water is formed by hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom but does not become ice, even at temperatures approaching absolute zero. The nanotube is composed of copper-colored amill representing carbon nanotubes, measuring approximately 1.4 nanometers. A red and white tube which is an icy layer with permanent hydrogen bonds and oxygen in red on white. The interior chain is constantly moving and yellow balls represent hydrogen within the chain. Instead of ice forms, the lower the temperature to 8 degrees scale as l Kelvin within a monolayer of carbon tube, the water forms an icy layer, but not frozen water molecules with a chain of liquid molecules flowing through the center. When you get the temperature to room temperature, the nanotube ice water gradually becomes liquid.
