Abstract

Nanomaterials' unique features and uses have garnered interest in many sectors. However, effective nanomaterial processing and production need novel methodologies. In recent years, the combination of IoT and AI has shown promise in revolutionising nanomaterials processing. In nanomaterials processing, IoT and AI integration presents potential and problems. IoT allows real-time monitoring, data collecting, and analysis of nano materials production parameters. Sensors in industrial equipment and materials continuously stream data, optimising processing parameters and improving quality and efficiency. Machine learning and deep learning can analyse data for process optimisation, fault identification, and predictive maintenance. This integration provides nanomaterial processing options. First, it optimises process control, improving material quality, waste reduction, and efficiency. Second, IoT-AI connection allows real-time monitoring and analysis of defects and quality. Thirdly, predictive maintenance reduces downtime and improves equipment efficiency. Finally, integration allows the creation of intelligent nanomaterials with customizable characteristics for particular applications. This integration presents various obstacles. IoT devices create massive amounts of data that need strong infrastructure and secure connection methods. Data training and validation are needed to create accurate nanomaterials processing AI models. Collecting and using sensitive data raises ethical and privacy problems. In conclusion, IoT and AI in nanomaterials processing might revolutionise the area. Process control, fault identification, and predictive maintenance increase material quality and productivity. IoT-AI integration in nano materials processing requires solving data management, model creation, and privacy issues.
