The 14th International Conference on Environmental Effects of Nanoparticles and Nanomaterials - ICEENN 2019, is the leading international conference on environmental nanoscience. ICEENN brings together researchers, industry and regulators to discuss recent advances in our understanding of the fate and behavior of nanomaterials, their applications and possible effects in the environment and the key issues relating to maintaining the economic and social benefits of nanotechnology.

Abstract submission opens on March 1st, 2019 and close on May 10

This year ICEENN will be held back to back with the concluding conference of the EU Horizon 2020 project NanoFASE. This offers participants a whole week of fascinating research, applications and training on topics spanning from basic research to application, modeling and regulatory aspects. 

We invite contributions to the following topics: 

A - Eco-Toxicology of Nanomaterials 
B - Nano-Bio Interactions and Uptake 
C - Analytical Methods and Instrumentation 
D - Release, Behavior and Fate in the Environment 
E - Applications in the Environment 
F - Modeling, Data Repositories and Nano-Informatics 
G - Nano and Microplastics in the Aquatic Environment 

The Department of Environmental Geosciences at the University of Vienna is organizing this event together with NanoFASE. Please visit the related homepage of the NanoFASE Concluding Conference for more information (will open in March)

The conference venue is the University of Vienna's 9th district campus, located closely to the city center with all the opportunities offered by this vibrant city. World class museums, operas and theaters as well as shopping areas, restaurants, clubs and bars are at your fingertips or only a short tram ride away.

Addition of titanium dioxide (TiO2) (nano)particles into photocatalytic paints represents a promising alternative aiming to mineralize gaseous pollutants, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into innocuous species (H2O and CO2). Despite important industrial and economic benefits, some concerns were raised regarding the risks associated with nano-objects and their human and environmental impacts.

Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are widely used as biocides, leading to contamination of the environment and possible adverse effects on humans. Recent studies revealed that the cellular response to acute exposure to Ag-NPs differs from the response to chronic exposure, although we currently lack systematic studies comparing responses to different dosing regimens.
