Michael, Last I heard researchers had developed wheels and gears a few molecules across, but other than that I have not heard too much about nanotech lately. Another application would be for superfund cleanup sites, or for water pollution control systems. Imagine filtering for dioxin or other complex organic chemicals. Think of it, no more New Jersey River burning to the ground.
