Green Chemistry Conference

R. Komanduri, Green Chemistry Conference, Washington, DC, June 23, 1997. 

Professional societies could provide more funding and create more interest through promotion, for example, at professional society meetings and conferences or through society-sponsored journals, to place more emphasis on green chemistry and engineering.

At the first Green Chemistry and Engineering Conference, held in August of 1997 at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, D.C., American Chemical Society President Paul S. Anderson said green chemistry looks beyond controlling waste at... 

By designing a chemical such that it will biodegrade more readily to nontoxic product, the risks posed by the chemical to human health and the environment are reduced (Boethling, 1996). For a concise development of choosing green solvents, see this author s paper from the 1998 Green Chemistry and Engineering Conference (Nelson, 2000).

The first conference highlighting green chemistry was held in Washington in 1997, since when other, similar conferences have been held on a regular basis in order to raise the awareness of and participation in this greener vision.6... 

The EPA and the American Chemical Society (ACS) have played a major role in promoting research and development, as well as education, in green chemistry. In 2000 the GCI became a partner of the ACS. Chemical societies around the globe have recognized the importance of green chemistry and promote it through journals, conferences, educational activities, and the formation of GCI chapters. There are GCI chapter affiliates all over the world.
