What does it take for chemistry to become ‘green’? About two decades ago, the concept of green chemistry, as a paradigm reformation of the chemistry and chemical processes in practice was put forth by Paul Anastas and John Warner. As its name suggests, the overarching objective here was to make chemical processes environmentally friendly and overcome their notorious inefficiencies.
The concept of green chemistry is guided by the 12 principles explained by Anastas and Warner, and these principles are a walk-through for achieving green chemistry.
Marking the beginning of a series of resources and materials that will be showcased on Techemol, equip yourself today with high resolution, downloadable and printable posters for each of the 12 principles.
