The results presented here demonstrate the first successful applications of the concept of electroenzymatic synthesis. However, it is also obvious that many more systems are potentially very interesting for synthetic applications. This area is wide open for further creative research and only the tip of the iceberg has surfaced. What is especially promising is the fact that electroenzymatic synthesis is an environmentally friendly technique using the electrode as a clean reagent and the enzymes for high selectivity. Closed systems for technical applications are easier to realize than in many other areas. The author is convinced that industrial syntheses of valued small scale products will be seen in the near future. 

Photocatalysis over oxide semiconductors has been proposed as an effective, mild and environmental friendly technique for the abatement of (refractory) organic contaminants with oxygen as electron acceptor [15]. In this case the reaction is normally exoergonic, as the overall reaction (mineralization) is organics + yC>2 = xCC>2 + ZH2O. 

The characterization of support morphology in the physical state in which the support is used remains problematical. ISEC offers one solution and the provision of a commercially available instrument and associated software would be a big step forward. Again there are signs that this development is underway. Notwithstanding this there remains considerable scope for alternative user-friendly techniques to be developed and this is a challenge for physical chemists and physicists. 

The decontamination of polluted waters by photocatalytic treatment has been suggested as a viable, low-cost, and environmental friendly technique. The possibility of using solar energy as well as low-cost technology pushed to develop solar plants based on this process. The field results are very encouraging [1].

As an alternative to traditional solvent extraction methods, the extraction by supercritical (SC) fluids has been used in tocol analysis. This is an environmentally friendly technique as little or no solvents are used. Extraction parameters, e.g. temperature and fluid density, are easily optimized and managed, and as the extraction is fast it is thus suitable for routine work with many samples. SC carbon dioxide has been used to extract tocols from barley (Fratianni et al, 2002), dried bay leaves (Gomez-Coronado et al, 2004), and garden cress seeds (Diwakar et al, 2010). Extractions were carried out in single or multiple steps and with different fluid densities controlled by extraction pressures. Tocol yields from barley were 5% and 14% less than by Soxhlet and chloroform-methanol extractions (Fratianni et al, 2002), yields from garden cress seeds were 26% less than by Soxhlet extraction (Diwakar et al, 2010), and a- and y-tocopherol yields from dried bay leaves were 22% and 40% less than by acetone extraction (Gomez-Coronado et al, 2004). Despite lower recoveries of tocols, the SC carbon dioxide extraction methods were considered comparable to the classical extraction methods (Fratianni et al, 2002).

The optical propagation losses in the vacuum evaporated benzylic amide [2] catenane thin films, measured in planar waveguide configuration [47, 48] were found to be PL = 2.8 0.1 dB/cm at A = 1.32 (xm and PL = 4.0 0.1 dB/cm at A = 1.55 (xm, respectively. These values were determined by a two prism method [49]. As for polycrystalline thin films these value are significantly smaller han usually observed. It shows the ability of these molecules to form good optical quality thin films by using these technologically friendly technique. It shows also that the crystallites are very small, tens to a few hundreds of nanometers size. 

The newer extraction techniques such as SFE, MAE, and ASE are very attractive because they are a lot faster, use much smaller amounts of solvents, and are environmentally friendly techniques. For example, SFE uses carbon dioxide or modified carbon dioxide (e.g., carbon dioxide containing a small amount of an organic solvent known as modifier) for extraction. Carbon dioxide is a nontoxic, nonflammable, and environmentally friendly solvent. Furthermore, the extraction selectivity can be controlled by varying the pressure and temperature of the supercritical fluid and by the addition of modifiers. 

Acetic anhydride-pyridine on basic alumina has been used to conduct acetylations of hydroxy, thiol and amino groups under microwave irradiation conditions [35]. This rapid, safe, and eco-friendly technique can be applied for a broad variety of N, O, and S acetylations. 

Another technique is to ask if there are any alternative ways of looking at the situation which are more positive. There are usually many different alternative ways to look at any experience. The therapist helps the patient brainstorm as many alternatives as they can and review the evidence for and against each, then they try to decide objectively which alternative is most likely to be correct. There are techniques which can help the patient come up with alternatives. One such technique is called the friend technique . The patient is asked to consider how their best friend would react in this situation and what advice their best friend might give them if they were here now. 

These adverse conditions can be improved to a certain degree limiting excavation to one section of the mining area at any one time, siting of boundaries and screening banks, erection of barriers, and use of low-noise machinery fitted with effective exhaust silencers. The implementation of environmentally friendly techniques has served to establish better public relations between the mining companies and the local populace. 

I don t really feel that I learned a ton about green chemistry specifically, so I don t see how different a green course would be. However, I feel that learning about environmentally friendly techniques would be valuable. It s fun and it s important to do our part in helping preserve the environment starting with education. 

Use of internal mixers offers a direct and environment friendly technique for preparation of nanocomposites. A two-step mixing in an internal mixer followed by addition of curative on a two roll mill for preparation of elastomer-layered silicate nanocomposites [51]. In the study on the effect of processing conditions (mixer type, mixing temperature) and formulations on the properties of EPDM nanocomposites, it has been shown that open two roll mill mixing results in inadequate dispersion of the nanofiller in the elastomer matrix compared to compounding in an internal mixer. Melt compounding with layered silicates has been reported for NR [52], ENR [46], SBR [53], NBR [54], EPDM [55] and PU [56] systems. 

Heterogeneous processes are of great importance for the free-radical chain-growth polymerization of CH2=CRR monomers on an industrial scale. In comparison with bulk polymerization, they allow us to overcome the rapid viscosity increase of the reaction medium with conversion, as well as its consequences, such as the difficult heat removal and the autoacceleration phenomenon. Because in many cases the continuous phase is water, they are also more environmentally friendly techniques than solution polymerization methods, where the use of organic solvents remains hazardous and expensive. Ultimately, heterophase polymerization techniques are the original routes to polymer particles ranging from a few tens of nanometers to a few millimeters in diameter. 

In situ metal immobilization employing phosphate is a cost-effective and environmental friendly technique of less disruptive nature [24, 28, 47, 76] than other remediation techniques such as soil removal, washing or leaching. This technique was suggested by the United States Environmental Protection Agency in 1996 as an alternative to soil removal for the amendment of urban lead-contaminated soils [27]. The treatment of waters with calcium oxide or hydroxide can precipitate dissolved arsenate. To attain a total dissolved arsenic level lower than the maximum permissible concentration for total arsenic in potable water (0.010 mg/L arsenic) it is necessary to have a pH higher than 12.5, which poses other environmental problems. Under these conditions calcium carbonate wiU be the thermodynamically stable solid phase under ambient surface conditions. Transformation of calcium arsenates into calcium carbonate wiU re-release arsenic into the environment. For pH > 12... 

Most commonly used plastics are cheap to manufacture and highly available [35], and are both physically and chemically stable [36]. The durability of these materials makes them ideal for a wide variety of applications, but is also one of the primary factors leading to their accumulation in the environment [37]. Currently, there are three plastic disposal methods in widespread use, each with its own inherent drawbacks. Disposal of plastic in landfill is the simplest of these methods, however there is potential for secondary pollutants to be released into groundwater [38], Similarly, incineration of plastic waste leads to the formation and subsequent release into the atmosphere of dangerous secondary pollutants[38]. Recycling is the most environmentally friendly technique, however it a more expensive process, and often additives and impurities make it extremely difficult for some plastics to be recycled [38]. 

Electrospinning has been considered recently to be one of the most promising eco-friendly techniques to fabricate nanomateiials. It is cheap and facile technique. Besides, it is counted as an environmentally friendly technique since if aU of the solvents used during electrospinning are eco-friendly, no harm can occur to the external environment.

Pollutants from the ore-processing industries, surface and underground mines may find their way into the groundwater in a variety of ways. It can be seen from this scheme, that pollution of surface and ground waters, as well as air takes place during mining. Adsorption by low cost adsorbents, for example, provides an environmentally and economically friendly technique for removing U from wastewaters (Iakovleva and Sillanpaa, 2013).
