INTRODUCTION
The improper disposal of municipal waste has a serious and
dangerous impact on a wide range of areas. Garbage thrown in the
street or in open spaces creates a public health hazard, while waste
dumped near rivers, lakes and streams contaminates the water
supply. Rubbish that is burned in the open rather than disposed of
properly creates pollution and releases toxic fumes into the
environment. Non- biodegradable materials thrown into open drains
make their way into the sewerage system, clogging pipelines and
damaging infrastructure. The hazards posed by the dumping of
untreated hospital and industrial waste are even greater, with the
release of pathogens and toxic compounds posing a grave threat not
just to human life but also to plants and animals. Garbage dumped in
the countryside is not simply an eyesore; entire landscapes are
ruined and unique habitats for flora and fauna are lost. All of these
problems are common in India, where vast quantities of solid waste
remain uncollected in the streets, along major roads, in empty plots
of land downhill slopes and in illegal dumps.

2. HISTORY
Blood vessels play an important role in supply a blood to all parts of the
body. Due to the fatty deposition on the walls of blood vessels blood will
not move freely to all parts of the body these leads to heart attacks and
damage the vital organs.
In general, the most common methods of surgery used for heart attacks
is:
By-Pass surgery
Angioplasty

CORONARY BYPASS SRGERY
Coronary bypass surgery redirects blood around a section of a blocked or
partially blocked artery in your heart. The procedure involves taking a
healthy blood vessel from your leg, arm or chest and connecting it below
and above the blocked arteries in your heart. With a new pathway, blood
flow to the heart muscle improves.
Coronary bypass surgery doesn't cure the heart disease that caused
the blockages, such as atherosclerosis or coronary artery disease.
However, it can ease symptoms, such as chest pain and shortness of
breath. For some people, this procedure can improve heart function and
reduce the risk of dying of heart disease
ANGIOPLASTY
Angioplasty is a procedure used to open blocked coronary arteries caused
by coronary artery disease. It restores blood flow to the heart muscle
without open-heart surgery. Angioplasty can be done in an emergency
setting such as a heart attack. Or it can be done as elective surgery if your
healthcare provider strongly suspects you have heart disease. Angioplasty
is also called percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
For angioplasty, a long, thin tube (catheter) is put into a blood vessel and
guided to the blocked coronary artery. The catheter has a tiny balloon at its
tip. Once the catheter is in place, the balloon is inflated at the narrowed
area of the heart artery. This presses the plaque or blood clot against the
sides of the artery, making more room for blood flow .
Both of the above methods are risky and number of side effects. As a
result, patient becomes very weak.
But a surgery-using nanorobot is very simple one. Doctors do their
treatment even without touching the body.

4. STRUCTURE OF NANO ROBOT
Manufacturing approaches
Manufacturing nanomachines assembled from molecular components is a
very challenging task. Because of the level of difficulty, many engineers and
scientists continue working cooperatively across multidisciplinary
approaches to achieve breakthroughs in this new area of development.
3D printing
3D printing is the process by which a three-dimensional structure is built
through the various processes of additive manufacturing. Nanoscale 3D
printing involves many of the same process, incorporated at a much smaller
scale. To print a structure in the 5-400 µm scale, the precision of the 3D
printing machine needs to be improved greatly. A two-step process of 3D
printing, using a 3D printing and laser etched plates method was
incorporated as an improvement technique. To be more precise at a
nanoscale, the 3D printing process uses a laser etching machine, which
etches the details needed for the segments of nanorobots into each plate.
The plate is then transferred to the 3D printer, which fills the etched regions
with the desired nanoparticle. The 3D printing process is repeated until the
nanorobot is built from the bottom up. This 3D printing process has many
benefits. First, it increases the overall accuracy of the printing process.
Second, it has the potential to create functional segments of a nanorobot

Nanobots can be produced using organic materials such as proteins and
polynucleotides, or inorganic materials such as metals or diamond. In the
case of diamond, this stands out for its high strength and high performance.
Metals could have double purposes, for example silver. It can be the base of
a nanobot and to have an antibacterial effect. In some cases, they can act
as a virus causing irreversible cell damage. The surface properties of the
nanobots are a key factor to define the solubility and interactions with other
macromolecules or cell surfaces. Size or shape of a nanobot will affect
directly their motion, permeabilization and reactivity .
Types of Sensors
1.Chemical sensors : To find the fatty deposit.
2.MicroWave generated sensing : To generate movement.
3.Chemotactic sensors : To find cancer cells.
4.Acoustic sensors : To guide the nanorobots
Payload:
It is a void section which holds the drug. Nanorobot when inside the
body releases the drug through payload on the site of action
7
Micro-camera:
It helps the controller to navigate the path of nanorobot in the circulatory
system. It helps in monitoring the working of nanorobots.
Electrodes:
Electrodes could have the ability to make battery with ions present in the
biological fluid. This control may be protruding which can be used to kill
tumour by producing electric current and inflaming the surface control can be
obtain which can be used to kill tumour.
Laser:
Laser embedded nanorobots are used in the case of destruction of plaques
in arteries and blood clots.
Ultra-sonic signal generator:
Ultrasonic sounds are often utilized with the help of nanorobots which would
irradicate kidney stones.
Swimming tail:
Function to provide mean of propulsion to travel inside the body against the
flow of blood.
Nano computers:
For the efficient activity nanorobots essentially requires onboard computers.
This is a helpful tool to control nanorobot for the physicians . For activity,
nanorobots are embedded with the swarm intelligence. Swarm intelligence is
a technique embedded for the artificial intelligence. The three types of
swarm intelligence are ant colony optimization (ACO), artificial bee colony
(ABC) and swarm optimization (PSO).
Production of power is very important for every operation to most efficient one
in magnetic induction. Our body is full of magnetic field. Rotation of
nanorobots cuts this magnetic field, produce power based on faraday’s law
11
Recovery from the body
After the nanorobot is done with its activity, it is supposed to be removed
from the body. For this purpose, the nanorobot is guided to such blood
vessel which is easily accessible from outside. These can be removed by
performing small surgery.
In Emergency conditions
In some emergency condition where surgeon has to stop the nanobot
system, the magnetic switch is given. This magnetic switch serves as an on-
off system. When the magnet is slid over the nanobot for 1st time, the
system will be switched on i.e., nanorobots activates. This movement of the
magnet in one direction only switch on the system. If in the operation of
removing plaque one has to stop the working of nanorobot, shutting down of
the system is the only option by moving the magnet bar. This will terminate
all the running functions of this nanomachine.
7.Characteristics of Nanorobots
The size of nanorobot is approximately 2µm. Hence the nanorobots are free
to move in blood circulation. The nanorobot design includes integrated
nanoelectronics. Nanosensors can be useful for therapeutic treatments and
medical instrumentation. The nanorobot is not attacked by the white blood
cells as it is biocompatible with the system. The outer structure is made up of
diamondoid material which is covered with the glycocalyx surface.
Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor as nano-bioelectronics protocol
is used in the system. Chemo sensors incorporated in the system is required
for the modification of hSGLT3 protein gluco-sensing activity. The system
can indicate if a person needs any injection (insulin) or any other medication.
The image obtained from NCD shows inside view of blood capillaries, BBC’s
and nanobots. Nanorobots flows with the RBCs through the bloodstream and
detect the glucose levels
12
At a typical glucose concentration, the nanorobots try to keep the glucose
levels ranging approximately 130mg/dl as a target for the Blood Glucose
Levels (BGLs). A variation of 30mg/dl can be adopted as a displacement
range. If the significant change in glucose level is detected by nanorobots,
the collected information is transmitted to cell phones using RF signals.
Nanorobot transmit the signal and gives alarm when the patient’s blood
glucose level reaches the critical value. Nanobots enables a more effective
diabetes treatment and helping patients to achieve a healthier and more
comfortable lifestyle.

9.CHALLENGES
The major challenge in manufacturing of this is the size of nano-device and the
physics at the nano scale. As the size is reduced, the surrounding environment
and forces will affect the activity of nanorobot. These nanorobots behaves like
pseudo molecules as they are as small as molecules. The surrounding like fluid
effect, viscosity and some electrostatic forces would affect the activity. The
motion of nanorobots may get affected by the thermally triggered collision in
Brownian motion. The forces acting on nanorobots may lead to the deformation
of device. This changes the characteristics of a nanorobot. Also inserting the
artificial intelligence in such a small system is a difficult task. For this the
nanodevice should be enough rigid. The self-assembly of the parts overcome
this problem and make the system rigid. Another challenge associated with
manufacturing of nanorobots is power generation and power storage.
10.CONCLUSION
As per our aim we have proposed the usage in heart surgery. Due
to this, number of risks and side effects are reduced. The same
technique is used in various treatments like cancer, breaking kidney
stones, breaking liver stones, parasite removal only with slight
modification. Automated robots used in medicine delivery has
evolutionary characteristics such as mutation, crossover,
chromosome selection and combination of these automated robots
with genetic engineering takes over world to new revolution. Within
ten years several advancement technologies should be made by
researchers from this nanorobotics.
