Abstract

Editorial: Environmental Impact of Nanotechnology: Analyzing the Present for Building the Future

Highlights

  • Specialty section: This article was submitted to Green and Sustainable Chemistry, a section of the journal Frontiers in Environmental Science

  • It becomes relevant to evaluate the potential impact of these engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) on the environment and human health; since ENMs could interact with organisms and environmental complex matrices

  • This Research Topic was intended to bring the main “bottlenecks” related to the studies of nanotechnology, their impacts on the environment, and present possible directions to be followed in several areas within the field

Summary

Introduction

Specialty section: This article was submitted to Green and Sustainable Chemistry, a section of the journal Frontiers in Environmental Science. Environmental Impact of Nanotechnology: Analyzing the Present for Building the Future Recent studies have shown that many of interactions of ENMs with environment compartments (soil, water, air) are still flawed concerning the mechanistic, methodological, and toxicological aspects, turning problematic the development of regulatory policies (Giese et al, 2018).
