Definition
Green chemistry, also known as sustainable chemistry, is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the generation of hazardous substances. It emphasizes environmental sustainability and human health protection.
Context
Green chemistry represents a paradigm shift in chemical research and industry, focusing on preventing pollution at the molecular level rather than treating it after it occurs. This approach promotes sustainability across the entire chemical lifecycle.
Applications
Applications include development of biodegradable plastics, environmentally friendly solvents, renewable feedstocks, energy-efficient processes, and safer pharmaceutical manufacturing methods.
