Green Chemistry aims to design and develop chemical processes and products that minimize the use and generation of hazardous substances, reduce energy consumption, and prevent pollution.

Green Chemistry emphasizes the prevention of waste, atom economy, and the use of renewable feedstocks. Increased energy consumption is not a principle of Green Chemistry.

Atom-efficient reactions are chemical reactions that maximize the incorporation of atoms from the reactants into the final product, resulting in minimal or no waste.

Biomass, derived from plant and animal materials, is a renewable feedstock that can be used to produce fuels, chemicals, and materials.

Catalytic reactions in Green Chemistry offer several advantages, including reduced reaction conditions, increased product yield, and minimized byproduct formation.

Water is a green solvent due to its non-toxicity, abundance, and low environmental impact.

Biodegradability, recyclability, and compostability are all terms used to describe the design of chemical products that can be easily broken down or reused.

The production of biofuels using renewable feedstocks is an example of a green chemical process due to its use of sustainable feedstocks and minimal environmental impact.

Green Chemistry promotes sustainability by reducing the use of hazardous chemicals, minimizing waste and pollution, and conserving natural resources.

Green Chemistry contributes to the development of more environmentally friendly products by using renewable feedstocks, designing products that are easily degraded or recycled, and minimizing the use of toxic chemicals.

Implementing Green Chemistry principles typically leads to reduced environmental impact, improved human health, and enhanced energy efficiency. Increased production costs are not a benefit of Green Chemistry.

Life cycle assessment, environmental impact assessment, and sustainability assessment are all terms used to describe the evaluation of the environmental impact of a chemical process or product.

Green Chemistry contributes to the circular economy by designing products that are easily recycled or reused, minimizing waste and pollution, and using renewable feedstocks.

Solar energy, wind energy, and hydropower are all examples of green technologies due to their renewable nature and minimal environmental impact.

Green Chemistry promotes pollution prevention by designing chemical processes that minimize waste and pollution, using renewable feedstocks, and developing more efficient and selective catalysts.
