European Centre for Risk Management and Safe Innovation in Nanomaterials Nanotechnologies (EC4SafeNano)
Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2019,
A significant challenge to ensuring sustainable production and use of nanotechnologies is to understand safety and health risks of the technology and its end-products, and to implement practical strategies to manage these risks. Knowledge is growing rapidly, but effective use of this knowledge for risk management is lagging behind. We therefore need to bridge the gap between knowledge on hazard an ...

Nanomaterial FAte and Speciation in the Environment (NanoFASE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2019,
Concept: NanoFASE will deliver an integrated Exposure Assessment Framework, including methods, parameter values, model and guidance that will allow Industry to assess the full diversity of industrial nano-enabled products to a standard acceptable in regulatory registrations. Methods to assess how use phases, waste streams and environmental compartments (air, soil, water biota) act as “reactors” in ...

Smart Resilience Indicators for Smart Critical Infrastructures (SmartResilience)
Start date: May 1, 2016, End date: Apr 30, 2019,
.... (#4) By developing the interactive “SCI Dashboard” tool. (#5) By applying the methodology/tools in 8 case studies, integrated under one virtual, smart-city-like, European case study. The SCIs considered (in 8 European countries!) deal with energy, transportation, health, water…Results #2, #3, #4 and #5 are a breakthrough innovation.This approach will allow benchmarking the best-practice solution ...

Development and implementation of Grouping and Safe-by-Design approaches within regulatory frameworks (NanoREG II)
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2018,
One of the greatest challenges facing regulators in the ever changing landscape of novel nano-materials is how to design and implement a regulatory process which is robust enough to deal with a rapidly diversifying system of manufactured nanomaterials (MNM) over time. Not only does the complexity of the MNM present a problem for regulators, the validity of data decreases with time, so that the wel ...
