Green Chemistry: A Path to Sustainable Development, in addition to providing updated information and knowledge of green chemistry, analyzes greener solutions for environmental sustainability and includes principles and practices, metrics, green chemical technologies, and real-world applications. Chapters explore interdisciplinary approaches to green chemistry, as well as value added through by-products, and conversion of waste to value added products, remodeling from a conventional approach to a greener approach, along with the challenges, opportunities, and future scope of green chemistry. Finally, this book discusses green methodologies, processes, and new chemical development.
