Environmental Aspects of Nanomaterials

Monday, March 22, 2010: 8:00 AM

Presidio B (Grand Hyatt San Antonio)

Description:

This session is intended to present technical information and regulatory overviews pertaining to environmental health and safety (EHS) apsects of nanomaterials. Presentations pertaining to three specific topics are included: (a) fate and transport of nanomaterials in the environment (b) environmental application of nanomaterials (e.g. remediation) and (c) environmental regulation of nanomaterials.
