This consultation will take place in the Czech Republic, therefore the following text is only available in Czech. Naše společnost čelí stále rostoucímu počtu obyvatel, a tím i tlaku na produkci dostatečného množství potravin. Dalším problémem je znečištění potravin způsobené pěstitelskými a výrobními postupy (např. pesticidy) nebo znečištění potravinových obalů (např. mikročásticemi z plastů). S … Continued
Researchers have designed a rapid nano-filter that can clean dirty water over 100 times faster than current technology. Simple to make and simple to scale up, the technology harnesses naturally occurring nano-structures that grow on liquid metals. The RMIT University and the University of New South Wales (UNSW) researchers behind the innovation have shown it … Continued
Soms hebben de kleinste dingen de grootste invloed Nanotechnologie is de technologie die in staat is om materie te veranderen op ongelooflijk kleine schaal, op het niveau van atomen en moleculen. Materialen kunnen zo compleet nieuwe eigenschappen krijgen en dat heeft invloed op de wereld om ons heen. Onderzoekers en ingenieurs werken al aan ramen … Continued
