Sustainable Chemistry

Sustainable chemistry focuses on designing chemical processes that minimize environmental impact, reduce waste, and optimize energy use. It aims to create products and materials with minimal harm to ecosystems, while promoting resource efficiency and the use of renewable feedstocks. Key principles include green chemistry, which advocates for non-toxic, biodegradable chemicals, and processes that are energy-efficient. Sustainable chemistry also emphasizes the importance of recycling, reusing, and repurposing chemical products.
