Green Chemistry: Theory and Practice

As described

Perfect for my niece who is doing her masters, it was on her reading list. I had a quick read. Found it explained concepts clearly, very readable.easy to read and understand

The text written on the back of the book is unreadable..You should choose other colors.

Very useful, good paper quality, nice packaging..

Trattasi di una sintesi della versione originale, tralasciando parecchi aspetti della green chemistry.

This should be the book in a class required for all chemical engineers, and they should be bound to the equivalent of an engineer's Hippocratic Oath after reading it.Do not expect detailed process diagrams on how to sustainably produce plastics and other products, but do expect short and concise guidelines and considerations for the production of things from a life cycle perspective. An engineer might be deeply interested in producing a material with some key ingredients to make it stronger and cheaper, but the last 60 years have shown us that this kind of myopic progress leaves a trail of waste and health hazards behind it. This book addresses that concern by outlining considerations for making things, achieving the purpose of their manufacture, yet also considering the lasting impact in a cradle-to-grave life cycle. The principles are sound and do not interfere with the engineering process, but instead add to it.

Thoroughly gave an accurate product description for what kind of condition it was in. It was very helpful. Great purchase!
