Professor Kattesh V. Katti MSc.Ed, PhD, DSC, FRSC, Director, Nanotechnology<br />
Platform, University of Missouri and Director, Center for Green Nanotechnology &<br />
Agri Nanotechnology (SHIATS), who has been recognized globally as the 'Father of<br />
Green Nanotechnology' will deliver series of guest lectures and perform live<br />
demonstrations to showcase <strong>in</strong>novations <strong>in</strong> Green Nanotechnology at the rst ever<br />
workshop on Green Nanotechnology be<strong>in</strong>g held <strong>in</strong> Goa, India from August 6-7,<br />
2013.<br />
Nanotechnology is considered to play a signicant role <strong>in</strong> major advances with<strong>in</strong> the<br />
Agriculture, Energy, Technology and Medical sectors <strong>in</strong> the 21st century.<br />
Nanotechnology must embrace green and clean technologies <strong>in</strong> order to be<br />
economically viable and environmentally susta<strong>in</strong>able. The global corporate sector is<br />
embrac<strong>in</strong>g Green Nanotechnology as the economic and societal impacts of green<br />
processes are expected to exceed one Trillion dollar market potential. As the<br />
nanotechnology revolution unfolds to unleash its power on our day to day lives, the<br />
environmental impacts of various nanotechnological production processes and<br />
nished products that are embedded with a wide spectrum of nanoparticles must be<br />
addressed right at the time of <strong>in</strong>ception.<br />
Green Nanotechnology is an <strong>in</strong>terdiscipl<strong>in</strong>ary rapidly develop<strong>in</strong>g knowledge base at<br />
the <strong>in</strong>terface of agriculture, chemistry, physics, medical sciences, eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g and<br />
biological elds. The INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON <strong>GREEN</strong><br />
<strong>NANOTECHNOLOGY</strong> hosted by the Sam Higgnbottom Institute of Agriculture,<br />
Technology and Sciences, Allahabad (SHIATS: Deemed to be University) <strong>in</strong><br />
partnership with University of Missouri is the rst one of its k<strong>in</strong>d <strong>in</strong> the Nation. This<br />
rst ever Monsoon workshop on Green Nanotechnology, <strong>in</strong> India, will be held <strong>in</strong><br />
Goa at the picturesque Bogmallo Beach Resort Hotel <strong>in</strong> Goa from August 6-7,<br />
2013. This workshop will provide a forum where group discussions, lectures and<br />
hands on live experiments and demonstrations will focus on the latest developments<br />
of novel Green Nanotechnological processes and products to help the corporate<br />
sectors the ability to design new products that are made from more eco - friendly<br />
materials <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g plants, and crops, various phytochemicals and phytoconstructs,<br />
locally available <strong>in</strong> India.<br />
Green Nanotechnology workshop will provide latest technical knowhow on us<strong>in</strong>g<br />
green processes that use less energy and generate less waste throughout the<br />
product life cycle. Discussions at this workshop will cover applications of 100%<br />
'Green' Nanotechnologies for the design and development of nanoparticles which <strong>in</strong><br />
turn make their way <strong>in</strong>to the production of fertilizers, smart electronic materials,<br />
lifesav<strong>in</strong>g nanopharmaceuticals, environmental restoration technologies and <strong>in</strong><br />
alternate green energy production devices.
The scope of this workshop <strong>in</strong>cludes:<br />
How Green Nanotechnology connects Agricultural Economy with<br />
Nanotechnology;<br />
Eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g and sciences as they relate to chemistry, and physics of green<br />
nanoparticles production lead<strong>in</strong>g to green nanotechnology-based products;<br />
New green nanotechnological synthetic processes and their feasibilities at<br />
laboratory, pilot scales and <strong>in</strong>dustrial scale mass manufactur<strong>in</strong>g;<br />
Use of phytochemical processes and phyto-mediated technologies for the<br />
production of green nanotechnology-based products <strong>in</strong> the agricultural,<br />
energy, medical, smart electronic materials and environmental sectors;<br />
Who Can Attend:<br />
Corporate executives, policy makers, <strong>edu</strong>cators, University and College Teachers,<br />
