Green Chemistry Education

The "greening" of industry processes, i.e. making them more sustainable, is a popular and often lucrative trend which has emerged over recent years. The 4th volume of Green Chemical Processing considers sustainable chemistry in the context of education and explores didactic approached. The American Chemical Society's 12 Principles of Green Chemistry are woven throughout this text as well as the series to which this book belongs.

Résumé

Green Chemical Processing provides an overview of the aims and challenges of sustainable chemistry and highlights recent developments in what has become a highly active area of research. While the American Chemical Society's 12 Principles of Green Chemistry are used as guidelines throughout the series, Green Chemical Processing also looks to the future and considers the potential of this dynamic field beyond the established tenets of sustainability. The volumes of this series will combine to a reference on Green Chemical Processing for Chemists, Chemical Process Engineers, Chemical Engineers, Materials Scientists as well as beginners and students in the field.
