چکیده
The increasingly apparent negative impact of human activities on the environment has heightened urgency for chemistry community to adopt greener and more sustainable practices. E-factor can still be considered a valuable tool in this drive, particularly because its broad acceptance familiarity amongst both industrial academic chemists. An important factor broadening adoption green principles is ensuring that academics responsible training next generation chemists prioritise practices their undergraduate post graduate laboratories. Green metrics must easy use motivate broader develop syntheses. For maximum achieved detail exact applied are less than by chemical community. Of growing importance replacement fossil resources with renewable alternatives reduce greenhouse gas emission significant driver climate change.

The EAHWM was developed to help Army decision makers find and evaluate viable minimization alternatives to current hazardous waste management practices. This tool has been widely accepted throughout the Army and is being assessed by the US. Navy and the Department of Defense General Supply Center. Law and policy makers in the government and private industry can also use the model to compare min...
