Matsudo s team uses the bacterium Bacillus megaterium in supercritical carbon dioxide at temperatures of about 100°F (40°G) and 100 atmospheres of pressure to bring about carboxylation. The process illustrates yet one more way of using more than one green chemistry principle in a process the use of a safer catalyst as well as a safer solvent. (The role of supercriticial carbon dioxide as a solvent will be discussed in the next section.)... 

Chemistry of the Environment focuses on the role of chemistry in environmental issues, including air and water pollution, solid wastes, and the relatively new field of green chemistry. The term pollution refers to the release of harmful or ohjectionahle substances into the environment, most commonly as the result of human activities. Some of the most obvious examples of pollution are smoke produced by industrial operations, carbon dioxide and other gases released into the atmosphere as a by-product of burning fuels, silt and sediment washed off land by rainwater, and garbage dumped on land. 

The first exceptional system that we review is carbon dioxide [15-21], Supercritical (sc) CO2 finds numerous industrial applications as a green solvent, and this practical consideration stimulates interest in its radiation chemistry. Though the studies of sc CO2 are recent, this system is particularly interesting because of the simplicity of the solvent molecule and extensive gas phase and matrix isolation studies of the corresponding ions (see below).

This book describes green chemistry approaches that employ liquid or supercritical carbon dioxide. Supercritical fluids have been investigated for more than a century however, applications to chemical synthesis and materials processing are relatively new. Since the 1990s, we have witnessed a veritable explosion of increased research activity in the area of chemical reactions and processes in liquid or supercritical carbon dioxide with the... 

Part IV, "Sustainability" (Chapters 13 through 18), deals with the topics of sustainable development, efficiency, and sustainability in the chemical process industry and a very topical topic, carbon dioxide (C02). The sense and nonsense of green chemistry and biofuels is expounded in this part as well, followed by solar energy conversion and musings on hydrogen in the final chapter of this part. 

The importance of the interaction with photons in the natural world can hardly be overstated. It forms the basis for photosynthesis converting carbon dioxide and water into more complex plant-associated structures. This is effectively accomplished employing chlorophyll as the catalytic site (this topic will be dealt with more fully later in the chapter). Chlorophyll contains a metal atom within a polymeric matrix, so it illustrates the importance of such metal-polymer combinations. T oday, with the rebirth of green materials and green chemistry use of clean fuel—namely, sunlight—is increasing in both interest and understanding.
