Exploring Opportunities in Green Chemistry and Engineering Education
- Share to:
hot new topic in both chemistry and chemical engineering is green. Green chemistry is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances.1 Green engineering is the development and commercialization of industrial processes that are economically feasible and reduce the risk to human health and the environment. At the forefront of the green chemistry and engineer- ing movement is Dr. Paul Anastas, director of the American Chemical Society (ACS) Green Chemistry Institute (GCI). Ac- cording to the GCI, the overall goal of green chemistry and green engineering is to unleash “the creativity and innovation of our scientists and engineers in designing and discovering the next generation of chemicals and materials so that the chemicals and materials provide increased performance and value while meeting all goals to protect and enhance human health and the environment.”
