The storing, handling, and processing of bulk solid materials is fundamental to nearly every manufacturing and processing industry, from the food industry and agribusiness, to the plastics industry, to the mining and cement industries, to coal-fired electric utilities. Automating the handling and processing of solids is rapidly growing, but little has been published on the use of radar, especially for applications with highly dusty solids encountered in silos and other bulk storage facilities.

The market of chemical sensors continues to grow at a rapid rate, reflecting the wide range of possibilities in improvement in technological processes in industry and agriculture and conditions of our life that can be enhanced by the use of chemical sensors. The military, medicine, airspace, and security markets also continue to drive the research and development in this area. At present it is hard to imagine the area, where chemical sensors would be useless.

The field of solid state chemical sensor design is a research field with an increasing interest due to the demands of reliable, inexpensive and portable systems for environmental monitoring, indoor air quality, food quality control, military and many other applications. Many solid state chemical sensors are now commercially available and researchers are making efforts to develop next-generation solid state sensors, having all the necessary requirements, such as small size, low production costs and low power consumption.

Nanomaterials and nanotechnology are new fields of science and technology. Nanotechnology is still in its infancy, because nanotechnology has become a hot area globally since a few years ago. However, it is expected that nanotechnology will dramatically change operating characteristics of chemical sensors and will probably gain in importance in all fields of sensor application over the next ten to twenty years. It was found that with reduction in size, novel electrical, mechanical, chemical, catalytic and optical properties can be introduced.
