About

The “Synthesis of Carbon Dots from Kitchen Waste” program offers a unique blend of environmental science and nanotechnology, teaching participants how to convert organic waste into carbon dots. These carbon dots have applications in fields ranging from bio-imaging to heavy metal adsorption, making this skillset increasingly valuable. Over the course of one month, participants will engage with both theoretical underpinnings and practical methodologies, including hands-on experiments and project-based learning.

Aim

This program seeks to explore innovative methods of converting everyday kitchen waste into valuable carbon dots, demonstrating a sustainable approach to nanotechnology. Participants will learn to synthesize and apply these nanomaterials in various industrial and environmental contexts, aiming to reduce waste and enhance product functionality across sectors.
