Book Description
Explore the Properties of Today's Widely Used Nanomaterials and Assess Their Potentially Harmful Effects on the Environment
Environmental Nanotechnology is the first book to assist you in both understanding the properties of new nanomaterial-centered technology and assessing the potentially harmful effects these materials may have on the environment.
Written by a team of 29 leading experts from around the world, this comprehensive book presents cutting-edge coverage of the fabrication, characterization, and measurement of nanomaterials emerging markets for nanomaterials nanotechnologies in the energy industry nanotechnologies for environmental quality nanotechnology transport and fate in the environment toxicological impacts of nanomaterials and much more. Filled with detailed illustrations, Environmental Nanotechnology features:
State-of-the-art techniques for the characterization and measurement of nanomaterials
The latest findings on the transport and fate of nanomaterials in the environment
Nanotechnologies for energy production, storage, and distribution
In-depth analyses of the ecotoxicological impacts of nanomaterials
New methods for developing nanomaterials with less environmental risk

Mark Wiesner
Mark Wiesner, the James B. Duke Professor and chair of civil and environmental engineering at Duke University, has been appointed to the Science Advisory Board of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
With eight new board members appointed to three-year terms, the Science Advisory Board will have a total membership of 45 in FY2019. Their role is to review the quality and relevance of the scientific and technical information being used by the EPA, review EPA research programs and plans, provide science advice as requested by the EPA Administrator, and advise the agency on broad scientific matters.
“In a fair, open, and transparent fashion, EPA reviewed hundreds of qualified applicants nominated for this committee,” said EPA Acting Administrator Andrew Wheeler. “Members who will be appointed or reappointed include experts from a wide variety of scientific disciplines who reflect the geographic diversity needed to represent all ten EPA regions.” was tapped for his expertise in engineering, drinking water, water quality, and water quantity for reuse. For the past decade, he has led the Center for the Environmental Implications of NanoTechnology (CEINT) at Duke, which has been a lynchpin in the global effort to understand how nanoparticles are transported through the environment and their potential toxicity to ecosystems.
