Abstract
Chemical manufacturing processes have a significant impact on the environment, contributing to air and water pollution, energy consumption, and the generation of hazardous waste. As global awareness of environmental issues increases, the chemical industry faces mounting pressure to reduce its environmental footprint. This article explores the environmental impacts of chemical manufacturing, highlighting key challenges such as resource depletion, pollution, and energy inefficiency. It also discusses innovative solutions, including the adoption of green chemistry, waste minimization, energy-efficient processes, and sustainable material sourcing. The paper aims to provide insights into how the chemical industry can reduce its environmental impact and contribute to a more sustainable future
