A concerted effort is being made to insert Prevention through Design principles into discussions of sustainability, occupational safety and health, and green chemistry related to nanotechnology. Prevention through Design is a set of principles that includes solutions to design out potential hazards in nanomanufacturing including the design of nanomaterials, and strategies to eliminate exposures and minimize risks that may be related to the manufacturing processes and equipment at various stages of the lifecycle of an engineered nanomaterial.
各方正在共同努力,将“通过设计进行预防”原则纳入与纳米技术相关的可持续性、职业安全与健康以及绿色化学的讨论中。“通过设计进行预防”是一套原则,其中包括在纳米制造过程中设计消除潜在危害的解决方案,包括纳米材料的设计,以及在工程纳米材料生命周期的各个阶段消除暴露并将与制造过程和设备相关的风险降至最低的策略。
