Green Chemistry

Information resources on green and sustainable chemistry.

 

Green chemistry - or: sustainable chemistry - is the application of environmentally friendly chemicals and processes to protect the environment from hazardous substances.

At the same time, the compounds are again fully returned to the material cycle. And there are chemical processes used with low energy expenditure.

The principles of green chemistry should be in our time for self-understanding and to be present at any time during the planning of new processes, systems and manufacturing processes.

The following internet resources for sustainable chemistry are listed thematically.
