Abstract:
Chemistry is associated with concepts such as products, industry, employment, trade, development, and environmental hazards. Preserving the environment and natural resources is one of the major challenges that mankind faces on the eve of the twenty-first century, while the need to improve standards of living in developing countries has not lost its importance. The chemical, health and pharmaceutical industries have created employment for many people, so they play a key role in the social and economic life of societies. Industrial production most products are based on chemical interactions, some of which are toxic and dangerous. Undoubtedly, as much as we can avoid the use of chemicals in our lives or prevent the release of these substances in nature, we have helped ourselves and the environment. But in these preventive strategies, which have not been prominent so far, it seems that we also need to consider more effective ways to change the way chemicals are used to reduce their harm to humans and the environment is one of those ways. Today, this new approach is called Green Chemistry, which is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and production of harmful substances to human health and the environment. Green chemistry is not one of the oldest green washing methods, but is a key component of new technologies that are better off, cheap, and require less energy. In a complete period of production, from raw material to the final product, it produces less pollution. In fact, the green technology revolution is equivalent to the industrial revolution. This paper reviews the achievements of green chemistry in protecting the environment and preventing pollution.
Machine summary:
Today, this new approach is called Green Chemistry, which is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and production of harmful substances to human health and the environment.
Green chemistry, also called sustainable chemistry, is the research philosophy of chemistry and chemical engineering that aims to design products and processes that are environmentally compatible and minimize the risks of chemicals [2].
While environmental chemistry is natural and contributes to contaminating chemicals in nature, green chemistry seeks to reduce and prevent pollution in the environment [3].
The goals of green chemistry include the use of renewable resources, reducing the number of process steps, increasing energy efficiency, designing healthier chemical products and materials, increasing the efficiency or efficiency of chemical processes, using low-grade raw materials.
2. Green chemistry and its History New processes in laboratories can prevent industrial pollutants and produce new products that are environmentally friendly.
The term green chemistry relates to the design of products and processes that reduce or completely eliminate the production and use of hazardous materials, and it is based on twelve foundations that are designed or redesigned by molecules, materials, and chemical transformations to make them healthier for humans and the environment.
Green Chemistry and Environmental Protection Over the years, researchers have taken raw materials from nature, which are highly adaptable to human health and environmental conditions, and have transformed them into substances that challenge human health and the environment.
