Science and technology don’t solve all the problems of unindustrialized countries but they have a major part in doing that component of development. Nanotechnology is a comparatively novel field that will soon be providing essential and reasonably inexpensive solutions to serious developmental problems in those areas.
Nanotechnology is the study, creation, design, synthesis, application, and manipulation of practical materials, devices, and systems through control of matter at the nanometer scale and the misuse of novel occurrences and properties of matter at that scale. When the matter is manipulated at the miniature scale of atoms and molecules, it displays novel wonders and properties. Thus, scientists are harnessing nanotechnology to create new, inexpensive materials, devices, and systems with unique properties.

The top 10 nanotechnology applications are:
Ø  Water treatment and remediation
Ø  Disease diagnosis and screening
Ø  Air pollution and remediation
Ø  Construction
Ø  Health monitoring
Ø  Energy storage, production, and conversion
Ø  Vector and pest detection and control.
Ø   Drug delivery systems
Ø  Food processing and storage
Ø  Agricultural productivity enhancement


With a high grade of agreement, panelists nominated energy production, conversion, and storage, along with the creation of other fuels, as the area where nanotechnology applications are most likely to profit developing countries. "Economic development and energy consumption are inextricably linked," says Singer. "If nanotechnology can help developing countries to move towards energy independence, then the benefits of financial growth will become that much more accessible."
