Synopsis
Green chemistry, also known as sustainable chemistry, refers to environmentally friendly chemicals and processes that result in: reduced waste, eliminating costly end-of-the-pipe treatments; safer products; and reduced use of energy and resources—all improving the competitiveness of chemical manufacturers and their customers. *chemicals that are less hazardous to human health and the environment are:
- Less toxic to organisms and ecosystems
- Not persistent or bioaccumulative in organisms or the environment
- Inherently safer with respect to handling and use
Topics & Application Areas
