ASINA trainings

This is a list of all recordings from webinars offered by ASINA.

Webinar on Value Chain 1 - Description and regulatory context 14 March 2024
Incorporation of nanomaterials in nano-enabled products: filters, textiles. Monitoring campaigns in worker exposure assessment. Legal requirements and regulatory context through lifecycle.

Webinar on Value Chain 2 - Description and regulatory context 23 Feb. 2024
This webinar has been though to provide an overview of the value chain 2 regarding the use of nanomaterials in cosmetic products. In fact different nano technologies developed through the Asina Safe-by-Design approach have been included in different cosmetic formulation. The aim of this webinar is to show a real case study focusing on the specific need of the cosmetic sector both from technical point of view and regulatory point of view.

A digital approach to implement SSbD in manufacturing processes 23 Feb. 2024
Nanotechnological manufacturing processes, beyond the singularity of incorporating nanoforms, do not show any additional distinctive characteristics that differentiate them from other industrial manufacturing processes. Its safe (re) design is governed by the same principles, methodologies and best practices traditionally used in engineering for the design of safe processes, which considers safety from the design stage and integrates it into the whole life cycle of the process. This safe-by-design (SbD) approach seeks to anticipate and prevent the risks of the process as well as the potential negative impacts that could arise on human health and safety, the environment, and the industrial facility itself. Digital technologies, such as advanced sensors, IoT, data analysis or artificial intelligence, are key technologies identified by the European Commission to achieve the green and digital transitions of European industry, and attain the new paradigm of Industry 5.0 with sustainable, resilient, and human-centred production processes. Digitalization can be applied in the (re)design of industrial processes to achieve more competitive and also safer and more sustainable manufacturing processes, fully aligned with Recommendation C (2022) 8854 establishing a European assessment framework for “Safe and Sustainable by Design” (SSbD) chemicals and materials.

Safe by design – ASINA decisional tool for validation 23 Feb. 2024
The use of ASINA Expert System is contextualised within the general SSbD workflow, by highlighting requirements, the leveraged potential and limitations. Application examples are considered by addressing different design case studies.

Toxicological aspects of nanomaterials according REACH regulation – risk assessment 23 Feb. 2024
This webinar talked about nanomaterials as chemical entity, requirements for chemical substances in Europe, specific evaluation for nanomaterials, risk assessment for chemicals and specific topic for nanomaterials.
