Sustainable Green Chemistry in Green Technology Environment

Abstract

Green Technology is the development and application of concepts of green chemistry through different technological processes. This “Green” approach involves use of renewable raw material, create economic efficiency, identify, and use alternative chemical reactions and use of non-conventional solvents to achieve economic and environmental benefits. To be green substitute for hazardous organic solvent, the alternative green chemistry solvent should be non-volatile, non-flammable, stable, non-toxic, biodegradable and made with environment friendly processes. Such solvents can be used in big manufacturing industries for various purposes and bring down the pollution effect on environment through sustainability and re-use, recycle aspects. “Ecotoxicology” is the method to determine the toxic impact of newly synthesized chemicals by monitoring the greenness of the processes.
