500			_aNano materials unique properties offer revolutionary means to optimize a variety of products, including electronics, textiles, paintings and coatings, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products. However, these same properties mean that nanoscale materials can behave differently in the human body and the environment than conventional materials. Offers a fundamental understanding of the properties of nanoscale materials, their fate and transport in the environment and in wastewater, and the implications for worker safety and the environment. This book discusses the potential use of nanomaterials for environmental remediation.
