Summary Annotation The "greening" of industry processes, i.e. making them more sustainable, is a popular and often lucrative trend which has emerged over recent years. The 4th volume of Green Chemical Processing considers sustainable chemistry in the context of education and explores didactic approached. The American Chemical Society's 12 Principles of Green Chemistry are woven throughout this text as well as the series to which this book belongs
