Special Issue on Green Chemical Industry

The last few decades of the 20th century witnessed growing concerns over the impact of industry on the global environment. However, in spite of an enormous investment over the last 50 years to ensure that the production of chemicals does not have a malign effect on the environment, many of the public, the very consumers of the products, still associate the chemical industry with the worst sorts of pollution.There is no doubt that there are still mistakes and these are generally well publicised in the media but overall there have been significant changes in the operation of the chemical industry that are designed to reduce the impact on the environment. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in the area of green chemical industry.

In this special issue, we invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles that explore green chemical industry. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Prevention
• Atom economy
• Less hazardous chemical synthesis
• Designing safer chemicals
• Safer solvents and auxiliaries
• Design for energy efficiency
• Design for degradation
• Real-time analysis for pollution prevention

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Green Chemical Industry” should be selected during your submission.
