Green Chemistry. New Avenues in Chemical Research 12+

📖 Green chemistry is not a new branch of science. It is a new philosophical approach that through application and extension of the principles of green chemistry can contribute to sustainable development. Presently it is easy to find in the literature many interesting examples of the use of green chemistry rules. They are applied not only in synthesis, processing and using of chemical compounds. Many new analytical methodologies are also described which are realized according to green chemistry rules. They are useful in conducting chemical processes and in evaluation of their effects on the environment. Great efforts are still undertaken to design an ideal process that starts from non-polluting initial materials, leads to no secondary products and requires no solvents to carry out the chemical conversion or to isolate and purify the product.
