Patent application protects intellectual property relating to the innovative method for counting nanoparticles by an impact of particles into dielectric field of a condensator. The method was tested and presented at meeting of European project Nanosafe 2 in Saarbucken, Germany. Among other partners there was also Dekati, Finland, one of three the largest producers of commercial detectors. The patent application covers also the proposed electronics and protects geometry of the capacitive sensor. The international patent application is in PCT phase. The Search Report was already received.
F.06 Development of a new product
COBISS.SI-ID: 22399783Description of the innovation: New method of detection of nanoparticles in aerosol is presented. One of the biggest manufacturers of these devices has confirmed that our method was innovative. The advantage if the method is in a low cost of the device, easy use, lower power consumption and simple construction. The prototype of several sensors and of the whole device have already been tested. For calibration needs the system must be combined with a commercial nanoparticle detector.

D.10 Educational activities
COBISS.SI-ID: 248708352In cooperation with Ministry for Health, Rep. Slovenia and Rep. Austria we organized an international conference on nanosafety, where we discussed risks produced by nanoparticles in air for human health. The main conclusion of the conference was a need for regulations and caution recommendations for dealing with nanoparticles.
B.01 Organiser of a scientific meeting
COBISS.SI-ID: 23290407Invited talk for the course of safety at work for staff of Faculty for Chenistry and Chemiacl Technology. The Faculty educated safety engineers. This is important for dissemination of guidance for safe work with nanoparticles and for knowledge of their detection.
