This powerpoint presentation outlines information on the environmental concerns and opportunities of nanotechnology in relation to:applications, enhanced or new capabilities to addressexisting and future environmental problems; and,implications, create the information needed to usenanomaterials in an environmentally responsible andsustainable mannerThe CBEN Systems Goal is to developeffective water treatment systemsthat exploit engineered nanoparticles.The CBEN Societal Driver is to enableeffective risk management foremerging nanotechnologies.Topics covered include: disinfection and biofouling control; C<sub>60</sub> (buckminsterfullerene); nC<sub>60</sub>: Environmentally Relevant; nC<sub>60</sub> is Bactericidal (E. coli assay); nC<sub>60</sub> as a potent antibacterial agent; possible toxicity mechanisms; E. coli permeability using flow cytometry; factors affecting nC<sub>60</sub>'s toxicity to bacteria; dose response curve for Fullerenes; NOM reduces bioavailability and toxicity of nC<sub>60</sub>; and, reduction of biofilm formation by nC<sub>60</sub>. Includes figures.
