Perera Research Group for Advanced Sustainable Nanomaterials
at Kingston University London
Why sustainable nanomaterials?
The harmful impacts of man-made technologies is leading to disastrous consequences for the planet and its inhabitants. As scientists strive to achieve harmony between nature and technology, the importance of developing recyclable, green and cost-effective materials that are also robust and efficient, is paramount. Advanced nanomaterials are immerging in the fields of energy, catalysis and biomedicine, as solutions to these challenges. Our vision is to contribute towards the growth of this field, through research and innovation.
