GREEN CHEMESTRY IN CHEMICAL LABORATORY

1. GREEN CHEMISTRY DEFINITION

• The Invention, design and application of chemical products and processes to reduce or to eliminate the use and generation of hazardous subtances to human health ang the enviroment (Initial definition),
• Involves the fundamental anf inovative chemical methods that accomplished pollution prevention thrugh source reduction and that have broad application in industry (US EPA)

2. SUTAINABLE CHEMISTRY DEFINITION

• The design, manufacture and use of efficien, effective, safe and more enviromentally benign chemical products and process (Organization for economic Cooperation an Development, OECD)

3. PRINCIPLES OF GREEN CHEMISTRY

1. - PREVENT WASTE
2. - Design safer chemical products
3. - Design less hazardous synthesis
4. - Use renewable feedstocks
5. - Use catalysts, not stoichiometric reagents
6. - Maximize atom economy
7. - Use safer solvents and reaction conditions
8. - Increase energy efficiency
9. - Design chemical produts to degrade after use
10. - Subtances after use so that they don't accumulate in the environment
11. - Analyze in real time to prevent pollution.
12. - Minimize accident potential
