Green Chemical Engineering: Addressing Environmental and Social Issues

Abstract

Green chemical engineering is a field focused on developing sustainable processes and technologies that minimize environmental impact and promote social responsibility. The adoption of green chemistry principles aims to reduce hazardous waste, improve resource efficiency, and promote the use of renewable resources. This article explores how green chemical engineering addresses critical environmental and social challenges, such as climate change, pollution, resource depletion, and social equity. The paper discusses innovative solutions in waste management, energy efficiency, renewable resources, and social responsibility in the context of chemical engineering, with a focus on creating a more sustainable future.
