Abstract
A comprehensive overview of ongoing research efforts and future scientific directions in nanotechnology to develop materials, devices, and systems for potential use in environmental pollution monitoring and mitigation; energy generation and storage; and chemical-biological-radiological-nuclear sensing is presented. Applications of nanomaterials in development of biodegradable, high performance yet light weight and eco-friendly materials are presented to minimize power consumption, green-house gas emissions, and land-fill volume. Societal implications and concerns associated with nanotechnology are addressed by studying fate and transport and development of guidelines for a risk-assessment model. A roadmap of the future of nanomaterials, in-terms of complexity, nexus of disciplines, and emerging green nanotechnologies is presented.
