Nanotechnology in Manufacturing

Nanotechnology; The History, The Development, The Associated Science and Skepticism Presented by: Gathon Kellum

History of Nanotechnology *Desire to Push forward *Difference engine *Early physicists *Analytical Engine

Introduction of Nanotechnology *Manipulation of Molecules * Size of the tip of a human hair *fifty Nano meters *constantly evolving

Skeptical view *Dangers of Nanotechnology *self-replicating nanobots *spontaneous release of energy *Risk of the unknown

Explanation of associated science * The Society of Scientific Exploration *a professional organization of scientists and scholars *over 800 members *watches over everything that is written or invented

Economic and Environment considerations Presented by Bradley Maynard

Current Advances *Carbon nanotubes *protective gear for soldiers *nanofluids being used as heat transfer fluids *coated aluminum being used in electronic devices

The Bulletproof Suit *suits for the financial elite *strongest fibers in the world *Lighter than Kevlar stronger than steel

Whats left to come? *development of new medicines *manipulate viruses and proteins *obtain and store solar energy better *advancements in alternative energies

The environment *cleaner alternative energies *more affordable *more efficient *environmentally friendly

*Improving standard of living *Countries racing to be “first” *Dictates speed of development

*No clear definition *Vague laws with many loopholes *Need for proper regulations

* Nanoenhanced foods *Rich and Poor country gaps *Genetic Pollution *Less human jobs (http: //www. foodrenegade. com/pics/cornpharma. J PG)

*Too “God-Like” *Nanotechnology as weapons *Nanotechnology uncontrollable

Nanotechnology and the Media *Magazines engage youth *Youtube videos teaching Nano *Mainstream media lacking in coverage. *Higher Education Pushing for Nanotechnology

Current context of Nanotechnology *Cleaner fuel *New Drugs *Molecular disease detection *Smaller Faster Computers

Psychological considerations *Lack of Education *Fear of Unknown *Hollywood feeds Fears *Cloning Debates and Fears

Sociological Effects *Public Advisory Boards *Unknowable Long Term Effects *Improved Regulatory Controls Advancing What is Needed and Profitable
