Q: How are nanoproducts and nanomaterial recycled?A: Currently, products that contains nanomaterials are not recycled in any other way than all other products Regulations and policies for how to declare any nano-contents in a product are lacking. This means that at places (e g Sysav) where recycling is conducted, there is no way to know if there is any risk for occupational exposure of nanoparticl
Q: Is it expensive to manufacture nanoproducts?A: It depends a lot on what types of nanostructures that the product consists of, and what you mean by expensive. Nanoparticles of mixed sizes, such as zink oxide for paint, can often be manufactured in large quantities. Modern microchips, in which the smallest structures are less than 10 nm, are expensive to manufacture, but the high value of the fi

Q: Are nanoparticles/nanotechnology dangerous for humans?A: The overarching purpose of nanotechnology is to create better circumstances for humans and environment. If the nano industry can grow, it can help us to solve the energy crisis, save the environment, and diagnose and cure adverse diseases. Nanotechnology can be used for cheap and easy water purification, available and cheap energy, faster

Q: Are nanoparticle-containing sunscreens and cosmetics dangerous? Can the nanoparticles penetrate our skin?A: In 2015 it was concluded [Naess, 2015] that none of the existing studies on skin penetration of nano titanium dioxide and nano zinc oxide (both common components of sunscreen, especially nano titanium dioxide) reported any evidence of skin penetration – except for one case, in which the p

Q: Are there any general guidelines to follow, since there are no occupational exposure limits specific for nanomaterials?A: The precautionary principle should always be applied as long as the specific toxicity is not fully evaluated and as long as there are no nanospecific occupational exposure limits. This means that companies/industries that produce or handle nanomaterial should apply a high le
Q: How is nanoparticle exposure measured?A: The traditional exposure assessment is focused on wide size fractions, e.g., all particles below 10 μm (PM10) or 2.5 μm (PM2.5) in ambient measurements, or below 4 μm (respirable fraction) in workplace exposure assessment. These measurements determine the total mass concentration of the respective particle size fraction. The mass concentration scales wi
