Nano Tech West is a company that develops nanotechnology products to address environmental issues. Its flagship product, Nano Sand Shield, is a programmable substance that can strongly and reversibly bind to elements like oil, arsenic, and gold. It aims to use Nano Sand Shield to help clean up oil spills, remediate contaminated mining and oil sites, and enhance recovery in the oil, gas, and mining industries. Nano Tech West was formed to distribute products created by Nano Zentrum Berlin and has offices in the US and Canada.
Introducing nano tech west
- 1. Introducing Nano Tech West, Inc. A Company that is focusing on the environmental issues of today Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 2. Who are We • Nano Tech West (NTW) was formed to act as the corporate entity as the primary distributor for all products developed by Nano Zentrum Berlin (NZB). • Nano Tech West Inc. is a Nevada State incorporated company which has offices and representative agents in the U.S.A. and Canada. • Nano Sand Shield is the flagship offering that is a highly effective technology that acts as the foundation in achieving these goals. Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 3. The Product • The product is programmable and will bind with targeted elements. • The binding process is strong and can remain ‘bound’ for periods extending into years. • The process is reversible. The element bound can be released at a later time. • Ongoing testing will expand the range of elements that can be captured. • Nano Sand Shield successfully developed to bind with: – Oil – Arsenic – Gold Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 4. Nanotechnology: Overview • The International System of Units, the prefix "nano" means one-billionth; One nanometer is one-billionth of a meter. • Nanotechnology is also known as molecular manufacturing , is a branch of engineering that deals with the design and manufacture of extremely small particles for an engineered use. Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 5. Applications • Environmental • Tailings Management • Decontamination of Water Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 6. Disaster Response • Oil spills, on land, Rail, pipeline or truck. • Product is effective in water and can be applied in lakes, rivers or an oceans. • Economic upside in that the oil is contained, removed from the environment and later released when the nano process is reversed. Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 7. The Oil & Gas Sector • Tailings remediation • Enhanced recovery • Cleanup of waste water • Spill containment • Oil sands produce millions of barrels of tailings each day. • Estimated that 7% – 10% of the tailings contain oil that has not been recovered. • Remediation of contaminated soils that result from conventional production. • Application of process to drill cuttings. • Exploring applications in the effective transportation of heavy oil Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 8. The Mining Sector • Enhanced metals recovery • Removal of arsenic from the finished product and tailings • Cleanup of existing environmental problems at a very economic cost Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 9. Environmental Sector • Remediation and reclamation projects • Rapid inexpensive cleanup of oil spills on both water and land Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 10. Pipeline • Nano Sand Shield is perfectly suited for pipeline operations with a focus on areas where the transport lines are exposed to, or in the vicinity of bodies of water. • 830,000 kilometers is the estimated length of the underground pipeline network in use to transport natural gas and liquids throughout Canada. • As of 2003, the United States of America had 2,307,981 miles of pipelines. • Transportation of oil is in excess of 12 billion barrels of petroleum each year in North America. Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 11. Rail • 140,000 miles of rail In the USA. • Canada maintains approximately 48,000 kilometers of track across the nation. • The transportation of crude oil has grown substantially in the last years and is poised to increase further with numerous oil transloading facilities are in various stages of development throughout the Americas. • Nano Sand Shield is easily transportable and well suited for storage in select locations. Nano Tech West, Inc.
- 12. Truck Transportation • There are no reliable estimates on the movement of oil products by truck, however there are daily deliveries of Gasoline and diesel fuel across Canada supplying the daily needs of Canadians Nano Tech West, Inc.
