Environmental technologies increase through nanotechnologies



Environmental technologies increase through nanotechnologies

Press Release from hkc22.com 

Nanotechnology increases the efficiency of Environmental Technologies. 
Worldwide Launches of Government Initiatives for Clean Technologies and Clean 
Energy.

Environmental Markets reach 560 billion US Dollar in 2003 and will increase to 
744 billion US Dollar in 2010. High growth in Water and Waste Water.

Nanotechnologies and converging markets and technologies, like nanotech-biotech 
and nanotech-infotech increase efficiency and reduce costs and volume of 
environmental constructions and design. According to a new study of hkc22.com 
the world markets for environmental technologies reached 560 billion US Dollar 
in 2003 and will be 744 billion US Dollar in 2010. Water counts for 40 percent 
and waste for 35 percent. But still "end of pipe" technologies are more than 80 
percent in 2004. Zero emission technologies are only 1.5 percent. 
Nanotechnology and molecular technologies transform the environmental industry 
to a high tech industry and reduce the "end of pipe" technologies  to 60 
percent in 2010 and increase zero emission to more than 3 percent. This market 
welcome nanotechnology and molecular technology like no other market without 
any barriers and preconditions. There is a great demand for better and cheaper 
solutions worldwide and the affects are vital to the society. 

The potentials for nanotechnology until 2015 is 5 to 10 percent and for 
nanotechnology "inside" 20 to 30 percent from the total market. Molecular 
technologies will lead the development and change  the market and applications. 
For nanotech-biotech convergence the market is expected to reach 25 billion US 
Dollar. 180 applications are defined today from soil sanitation, disinfection, 
water treatment and purification, energy systems, recycling, air cleaning, 
noise reduction to new and disruptive processes.  

Depending on the country 4 to 8 percent of the R&D spending will go into 
environmental technologies. The commercialization is faster than in any other 
branch or market and the profit potentials between 3 to 20 percent. 

Asia and China may install nano related technologies and do not first overtake 
the "end of pipe" technologies first. Asia and China show today the highest 
growth rates in   water and waste related technologies. The overall study is 
called "from nanotechnology to molecular industries 2015"
