Green Chemistry and Engineering

This book bridges the divide between bench chemistry, process design, engineering, environment, health, safety and life cycle considerations. The authors use a systems-oriented and integrated approach to evolve Green Chemistry and Green Engineering as disciplines in the broader context of sustainability. Many of the concepts associated with greenness metrics, greener chemistry and engineering require cognitive skills such as evaluation, synthesis, analysis and application. To meet this need, the book provides examples and practical exercises that help the student or advanced practitioner use understand these concepts as applied to the industrial setting and to use the material in direct and indirect applications. The exercises make the book suitable for self-study or as a textbook. von Jimenez-Gonzale;Constable;
