The authors of this article review thestate of nanotech applications for water treatment in Mexico. To this purpose, they follow the trajectory of the nanotech package; from researchand development to its commercialization. The study encompassed several stages: a bibliometric analysis (publications), a database with all theresearch groups looking at this issue, a catalog of all related patents and, finally, an overview of Mexican nano-companies in the water sector.Read More
