The anticipated increase in nanoparticle production in the next years makes exposure of the environment to these materials more and more likely. On the other hand nanomaterials hold great promise for more energy and material efficient products and processes and also for environmental clean-up or water treatment. Assessing the benefits and risks of nanomaterials in products and applications therefore requires a better understanding of their chemistry, mobility, bioavailability, and ecotoxicity in the environment.
It was the aim of this conference to gather researchers working at the forefront of nanoparticles in the environent to present, discuss and review the data existing on applications and behavior of nanoparticles in the environent.
