Nanotechnology in Chemical Engineering

Nanotechnology in chemical engineering uses materials and processes at the nanoscale to improve catalysis, separation and product performance.

It enables more efficient reactions and novel materials.

Nanocatalysts and Applications

Nanocatalysts have a very high surface-area-to-volume ratio, making chemical reactions faster and more selective while using less catalyst. Nanomaterials are also used in membranes, sensors, drug delivery and water treatment.

Precise control at the nanoscale allows engineers to design materials with tailored chemical and physical properties.
