Abstract

Green Chemistry, also called Benign Chemistry or clean chemistry refers to the field of chemistry which refers to the synthesis i.e. the path of making chemicals, processing i.e. the actual making of chemicals and use of chemicals that minimize the hazards to humans and impact on the environment. A traditional concept in process chemistry has been the optimization of the time-space yield. From our modern perspective, this limited viewpoint must be enlarged, as for example toxic wastes can destroy natural resources and especially the means of livelihood for future generations. In addition, many feedstocks for the production of chemicals are based on petroleum, which is not a renewable resource. The key question to address is: what alternatives can be developed and used? In addition, we must ensure that future generations can also use these new alternatives. "Sustainability" is a concept that is used to distinguish methods and processes that can ensure the long-term productivity of the environment, so that even subsequent generations of humans can live on this planet. Sustainability has environmental, economic, and social dimensions.
