nano-scavengers



In the last few years, nanotechnology has become an important technique that has been invest in so many different fields. One of them is the food industry, they even have their own name Nano-food. In this business, the nano-particles can be used in different aspects, from the beginning to the end of the process. They are used in cultivation, in production, even in packaging. 


One of the most useful investigations uses nano-particles to clean the water. They introduced micro-particles, like titanium dioxide that works as cleaners. This nano-scavengers (how they are called) can destroy or adhere to the contaminant agent and make them disappear. But this technology has a problem, and is how to eliminate this nano-scavengers, cause in this condition, the water is not suitable for human consumption. Not long ago, scientists from Stanford University developed a method that eliminates all the nano-particles present in the water. With this system, they eliminated the E-Coli, a bacterium present in the non-potable water.


The challenges for food engineers and for all the scientists are find new particles that can clean other contaminant agent in water, to make it 100% potable. And, why not, find new procedures with nanotechnology that  can help us to clan all the food.

If this new techniques prosper, can benefit many people, especially those who don’t have accesses to potable water. And in the future, this technology can help us to survive, cause water shortage is a problem that we are already living. 






All this, if the nano-particles don't dominate us first.

Best concert

Image
Some years ago, I enjoyed the best concert ever,  ever.  I saw One Direction, an english-irish boy band that was formed in 2010, in the tv show  the x factor . They gave two concerts at the Estadio Nacional in May 2014, but I could not buy tickets, so I was really sad. But three days before the first concert, i participated in a contest, and the day before the concert i found out that I won the contest. I was really happy, cause I had never won anything. I went with my friend Valentina, and we felt really awkward, cause we were the oldest.  Most of the fans were little girls with their parents. But we had a good time, even with all the girls screaming.  We sang all the song, and the day after we could not talk.   One of the members lefts the band after that tour, and the rest took a hiatus in 2015. I am glad that I had the opportunity to saw them before the split, but at the same time, I am  still waiting they reunites again, so I can have another extraordinary day.

English Language Challenges...

My experience learning English at university has been quite interesting. The truth is that this is my first semester studying at university and I did not know what I expected. I have memories of my school classes where everything was very monotonous and boring, but in general so far this semester, I had a good experience. The classes are entertaining and dynamic, with games that make learning more fun. I think the use of blogs also helps a lot, since it is also a dynamic way to improve our skills in written communication. Besides, blogs allowing us to express our opinions and thoughts on various issues and know what others think about it. I think I have to improve my English in all aspects, mostly in terms of pronunciation. I still have a hard time communicating. I would love to travel to an English-speaking country to learn English directly with natives, be cause I think the best way to learn is being surrounded by people who speak English, because you s
