What Role Does Green Chemistry Play in Reducing Chemical Risks?
Green chemistry focuses on designing chemical products and processes that minimize or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances. In catalysis, this approach can involve using non-toxic, renewable, or biodegradable catalysts, optimizing reaction conditions to reduce waste, and developing safer alternatives to hazardous chemicals. By integrating green chemistry principles, the overall chemical risks associated with catalytic processes can be significantly reduced.
