Please SAVE THE DATE for the 2018 ICEENN Conference, which will be held in combination this year with the CEINT annual meeting, at Duke University, Durham, NC on Wednesday September 5ththrough Saturday September 8th.

 

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON THE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS OF NANOPARTICLES AND NANOMATERIALS (ICEENN 2018)

5-8 September, 2018

 

Duke University, Penn Pavilion
107 Union Drive
Durham, NC 27710

(Located behind the Bryan Center)

As the leading international conference on environmental nanoscience, the ICEENN 2018 is being held in partnership with CEINT. ICEENN brings together researchers, regulators and industry to discuss recent advances in our understanding of both the fate and behaviour of nanomaterials and their applications in the environmental and the key issues relating to maintaining the economic and social benefits of nanotechnology.

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.
