About this book
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.
- Explores topics in Green Chemistry from an educational perspective.
- Considers the ecological and economical costs and benefits of chemistry research.
- Written by internationally renowned experts from both industry and academia.
