Learning Outcome 1: Compare & contrast developing bio-nanomaterials for healthcare applications from leading edge research including smart, bio and nano targeting antimicrobial & antiviral engineering.
Learning Outcome 2: Explore advanced manufacturing technology in terms of healthcare engineering, select and justify their application(s).
Title:
Novel manufacturing technology for bio-nanomaterials for tackling urgent healthcare needs.
Your contribution must address the following:
Design, manufacture and cost-competitiveness of a new bio-functional product; proposal and description of the manufacturing technology to develop a new product for fighting infectious diseases such as Covid-19.
Background:
The emergence of COVID-19 has resulted in profound global health challenges. As a future engineer in mechanical and manufacturing technology, you need to think and develop a strategy in your practice to engineer a technology to tackle the pandemic.
Assignment Brief:
Assume that you are working for a companythat manufactures one of the following:
i) ventilation/filtration systems for hospitals;
ii) tools and biomedical instruments for hospital ICU services;
iii) cellulose papers and plastic films for food and medical product packages.
Your position:
You are one of the Assistants to the Research Director in the chosen topic from above and you are responsible for developing new products for tackling the current pandemic. You are asked by your director to prepare a concise report of not more than 4 pages to elucidate your new product idea. Your report must considerthe following points:
i) background and introduction to your product idea setting the scene and providing potential justification for your proposed direction;
ii) identification of the new product and proposal and description of how it will be manufactured;
iii) evaluation of the performance of the new product that may block the transmission of the disease (you may consider a case study);
iv) analysis of manufacturing costs (aim for cost-effectiveness);
v) conclusions and recommendations
You will need to present a list of referenceson an additional page.
