Evaluation of impacts and developments of nanotechnology During the past quarter of century nanotechnology is one of most commonly known and developing science in the world. Sobolev (2005 p. 14) asserts that nanotechnology is the next industrial revolutionary science‚ which leads physics‚ chemistry and biology scientist to control and manipulate matter at extremely small scale‚ even at the level of molecules and atoms. Sahoo (2006 p. 21) defines nanotechnology as a science of manipulation‚ characterization

Title: The use of plasma treatment in Textile Finishing. Plasma technology is explored in the field of textile processing as an unconventional process. It is a “dry” technology and is intrinsically ecological and environment friendly. The conventional wet treatments applied in textile processing for fibre surface modification and others are associated with many constraints. These treatments mainly concern with energy‚ cost and environmental issues. Application of Plasma technology at low temperature

The Risen Empire and Nanotechnology Science fiction carries a vast majority of imagination that most of the time becomes a reality. Throughout history‚ science fiction books were made and became popular. One of these books was chosen and in it was a vast majority of science fiction topics. That chosen book was called The Risen Empire and was written by Scott Westerfeld. His imagination in this book set great options for choosing a science fiction topic. Some of these options were cybernetic

Abstract Nanotechnology and the use of Nanobots is an innovative‚ up and coming technology. When used in the human body it is acting as a major enhancement to the human immune system and modern day medicine. Many studies suggest the acceleration of the curing of widespread diseases such as AIDS‚ Malaria‚ Cancer‚ etc. This technology also makes it possible to easily transport blood and scientific testing samples without the lack of refrigeration becoming a problem. Knowing this‚ the use of nanotechnology

Four categories of goods Goods can be categorised on the basis of whether they are excludable and rival in consumption. • Excludable: other people can be prevented from using the good. • Rival in consumption: one person’s use of the good diminishes other people’s use. There are four categories of goods: private; public; club; and common resources. Four categories of goods GKM Figure 11.1 Rival in consumption? Yes No Private goods • Ice creams Yes • Clothing • Congested toll roads

NANOTECHNOLOGY AND SOME USAGE AREAS OF IT The nanometer is a unit length which equals 10-9 meters‚ in other words‚ billionth of a meter. In basic‚ logical perspective‚ the definition: the science‚ which studies the matter in nano dimensions for the term “nanoscience” is quite perceptible. However‚ to deeper understanding‚ it is useful to take a look at a wide definition of the nanotechnolocy‚ provided by U.S. National Nanotechnology Initiative. According to the initiative‚ “Nanotechnology is the

Substance Use and Treatment My use of Ritalin never occurred to me as substance abuse. I had been pretending to be suffering from Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) for some time as an excuse for my low grades in school and Ritalin was prescribed to me. I never took the medication since I knew I was not sick so I hid them. Until A friend of mine came visiting and saw them and informed me that‚ that was what he used to help him study. He told me that the pills helped one stay awake for hours which I
