BEIJING, June 21, 2013 \/PRNewswire\/ -- In the last few days, Czech nanotechnology pioneers have been presenting possible ways of utilizing Czech nanotechnology with specific examples taken from the Clean Air Nanosolution and Clean Water Nanosolution projects to representatives of the most significant Chinese companies at the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Beijing. There is a lot of interest in the new technology because it solves fundamental problems in air and water cleaning. At the same time the Czech Republic is the world leader in the field of nanofibers and has much to offer China, from cooperation in research and development to putting specific innovative approaches into practice. Cooperation in this field could become an important new branch of mutual trade and scientific and technological exchanges and bring qualitative changes in the life of Chinese society, said H. E. Mr. Libor Secka, Ambassador of the Czech Republic to the Peoples Republic of China. <\/p>\n
The signing of the Letter of Intent between NAFIGATE China (a subsidiary of the Czech company NAFIGATE Corporation( http:\/\/www.nafigate.com<\/a> ) JSC) and their Chinese partner Guodian Technology & Environment Group Corporation Limited (a subsidiary of one of the most prominent Chinese energy companies) is a significant milestone in Czech-Chinese cooperation in nanotechnology sector. Since January 2013 both companies have been preparing the foundation of the NANODEC (Nanofiber Development Center) project for the development of final applications for water and air cleaning. <\/p>\n The establishment of the center will be a major breakthrough with a global impact in the field of nanofiber applications. The aim of this initiative is to build a center of excellence which will utilize the best available worldwide know-how, the technological and infrastructural potential of one of the most significant Chinese companies and the potential of the market for new low carbon and green technologies. The Letter of Intent specifies the steps required to open the center according to the schedule in the last quarter of 2013. <\/p>\n We have been working intensively on the preparation of the whole project for months. As a result we expect the center to yield its first final applications just 6 months after opening, declared Ladislav Mares, CEO of NAFIGATE China. The project is divided into 3 phases. The first focuses on materials that already exist on the market, the second on equipping the center with the latest technologies and starting development of new filtering materials and the third stage will be the preparation and optimization of applications for industrial production. <\/p>\n Overall almost one hundred representatives from two dozens of Chinese companies attended the presentations of Czech nanotechnology. Both events, like previous NAFIGATE presentations at the Embassy, were met with great enthusiasm and interest from the Chinese side, which illustrates the good timing, interesting products and extraordinary potential that nanotechnology brings. We are delighted that the Embassy has been able to cooperate with Czech entrepreneurs and, with the financial support of the Czech Ministry for Foreign Affairs, prepare a suitable environment for specific business collaborations within the framework of economic diplomacy, said Petr Vavra, Economic Counsellor of the Embassy, in evaluating the event. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Read the original here: <\/p>\n Czech Nanotechnology Offers China Solutions for the Future<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" BEIJING, June 21, 2013 \/PRNewswire\/ -- In the last few days, Czech nanotechnology pioneers have been presenting possible ways of utilizing Czech nanotechnology with specific examples taken from the Clean Air Nanosolution and Clean Water Nanosolution projects to representatives of the most significant Chinese companies at the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Beijing.
