Green chemistry.
Gilbert's chemistry sets, those that many of today's practicing chemists received as children, proved to be the spark that ignited many a lifelong exploration of the wonders of chemistry. While DuPont was espousing its contributions to the world with its motto, "Better living through chemistry," children were using the popular Gilbert's chemistry sets to perform the simplest experiments and vie...
متن کاملGreen chemistry
Since their initial appearance in the scientific literature, the terms "green" and "sustainable" have been increasingly used and are nowadays ubiquitously present in the terminology of several research areas. The seminal origin of what is considered “green chemistry” today might be ascribed to the launch of the Responsible Care® initiative by the American Chemistry Council (ACC) [1] and to the ...
متن کاملGreen Chemistry Metrics with Special Reference to Green Analytical Chemistry.
The concept of green chemistry is widely recognized in chemical laboratories. To properly measure an environmental impact of chemical processes, dedicated assessment tools are required. This paper summarizes the current state of knowledge in the field of development of green chemistry and green analytical chemistry metrics. The diverse methods used for evaluation of the greenness of organic syn...
متن کاملGreen Chemistry CRITICAL REVIEW
In this paper both the mechanistic and kinetic aspects of furfural formation from pentoses in aqueous acidic media have been reviewed. Based on the reviewed literature, a comprehensive reaction mechanism has been proposed consisting of more than one route, all starting from acyclic xylose, and involving alternately 1,2-enolization, β-elimination or isomerization via 1,2-hydride shift as key ste...
متن کاملGreen Chemistry CRITICAL REVIEW
Biofuels and -chemicals can be produced from carbohydrates in lignocellulosic biomass. For an efficient total enzymatic hydrolysis of the plant cell wall polysaccharides, a pretreatment step is required. Ionic liquids (ILs) have recently gained considerable interest as solvents for cellulose and lignocellulosic biomass and pretreatment of lignocellulose with ILs is currently an extensively stud...
