Ikibazo cy’umwanda w’ibidukikije cyabaye ikibazo gishyushye ku isi ya none.Kwangiza ibidukikije, ahanini biterwa n’imiti y’ubumara, harimo umwuka, amazi, n’ubutaka.Uyu mwanda ntuvamo gusa kwangiza urusobe rw'ibinyabuzima gusa, ahubwo unangiza ubuzima bw'abantu.Urwego rwanduye rwiyongera umunsi kumunsi rukeneye iterambere ryiza cyangwa kuvumbura ikoranabuhanga ako kanya.Nanotehnologiya itanga ibyiza byinshi byo kunoza ikoranabuhanga ryibidukikije no gukora ikoranabuhanga rishya ryiza kuruta ikoranabuhanga rigezweho.Ni muri urwo rwego, nanotehnologiya ifite ubushobozi butatu bw’ingenzi bushobora gukoreshwa mu bijyanye n’ibidukikije, harimo gusukura (gukosora) no kweza, gutahura umwanda (sensing and detection), no gukumira umwanda.

Mw'isi ya none aho inganda zavuguruwe kandi zigatera imbere, ibidukikije byuzuyemo ubwoko butandukanye bw’imyanda ihumanya ituruka mu bikorwa by’abantu cyangwa mu nganda.Ingero z’ibi bihumanya ni monoxide ya karubone (CO), chlorofluorocarbone (CFCs), ibyuma biremereye (arsenic, chromium, gurş, kadmium, mercure na zinc), hydrocarbone, okiside ya azote, ibinyabuzima (ibinyabuzima bihindagurika na dioxyde), dioxyde de sulfure na ibice.Ibikorwa byabantu, nka peteroli, amakara na gaze, bifite imbaraga zikomeye zo guhindura imyuka iva mumasoko.Usibye guhumana kw’ikirere, hari n’umwanda w’amazi uterwa n’impamvu zitandukanye zirimo guta imyanda, isuka rya peteroli, kumena ifumbire, imiti yica udukoko n’udukoko twangiza udukoko, ibikomoka ku nganda zikomoka ku nganda no gutwika no gucukura ibicanwa.

Ibihumanya usanga ahanini bivanze mu kirere, amazi n'ubutaka.Rero, dukeneye tekinoloji ishoboye gukurikirana, gutahura kandi, niba bishoboka, yoza umwanda mwuka, amazi nubutaka.Ni muri urwo rwego, nanotehnologiya itanga ubushobozi butandukanye n’ikoranabuhanga mu kuzamura ireme ry’ibidukikije bihari.

Nanotehnologiya itanga ubushobozi bwo kugenzura ibintu kuri nanoscale no gukora ibikoresho bifite ibintu byihariye nibikorwa byihariye.Ubushakashatsi bwakorewe mu bitangazamakuru by’ubumwe bw’ibihugu by’Uburayi (EU) bwerekana ko hari icyizere cyo hejuru ku bijyanye n’amahirwe / ingaruka ziterwa na nanotehnologiya, aho usanga inyinshi muri zo zatewe n’icyizere cyo kuzamura imibereho n’ubuzima.
