It transcends their physical and chemical structure to the identification of the need for large-scale production of carbon nanotubes in enhancing manufacturing industrial processes, and potential frame work for commercialization. Solution potential with reference to the research and manufacturing industry, particularly in electronic device was x-rayed and evaluated estimating production capacity of the CNT process plant and the processes involved. The cost of manufacturing Nano-emission display (NED) device with CNTs was highlighted showing great commercial potential in this specified area. Furthermore, the viability of CNTs for possible large-scale industrial productions and commercialization was critically examined using PEST analysis.&#13;
Finally, it was concluded that, there are huge potentials for large scale industrial productions of CNTs investment both by the governments or private sectors.&#13;
