Nano-technology is hailed as having the potential to increase the efficiency of energy consumption, help clean the environment, and solve major health problems.
It is said to be able to massively increase manufacturing production at significantly reduced costs. Nano-tech advocates claim that products of nanotechnology will be smaller, cheaper, lighter yet more functional and require less energy and fewer raw materials to manufacture.
