Earth is actually full of these nanites, and they appear in the form of a black powder that can be used both as a fuel source, and as a means rejuvenate the soil. They're mentioned somewhat off-handedly as the mysterious black power that the old woman Anis references to in episode 20.
I'm assuming these nanites would be the same ones used by the Turn A when it destroyed all the worlds technology with the Moonlight Butterfly.
