Green Chemistry: A Path to Sustainable Development

Green Chemistry: A Path to Sustainable Development provides updated information and knowledge on green chemistry, analyzes greener solutions for environmental sustainability, and includes principles and practices, metrics, green chemical technologies, and real-world applications. Chapters explore interdisciplinary approaches to green chemistry, as well as value added through by-products, conversion of waste to value added products, remodeling from a conventional approach to a greener approach, and the challenges, opportunities, and future scope of green chemistry. Finally, this book discusses green methodologies, processes, and new chemical development. Evaluates greener approaches and methodologies for sustainabilityDiscusses new chemical processes and methodologies, recycling, and zero waste technologiesExplains broad spectrum utilization of greener products and processes in multi-product synthesis industriesProvides new insights for environmental sustainability, job opportunities, and economic development INDICE: I.
