In this episode, we look at Mechanochemistry, an suite of chemical processing methods that have their roots in our ancient past, but which are being investigated anew for their potential to make those manufacturing systems cleaner, safer, and more efficient.
Hear how advances in green chemistry can help address environmental justice challenges.
Environmental Justice has to do, in part, with people who are regularly and unfairly exposed to the harmful waste streams and byproducts of our industrial economy. In this episode of Green Chem Essential, a look at how green chemistry can help these people by changing how industry does things. Support
The medicines we rely on may look tiny when we hold them in our hands, but the manufacturing processes that create those medicines happen at very large scale.
Dr. Alexi Lapkin and his fellow researchers are using these tools to accelerate research in green chemistry & green engineering.
If we're going to meet the demands of sustainability and climate change in the time needed, scientific advancements will have to happen faster than traditional methods of discovery can often make possible. Hear how researchers are trying to use the combined powers of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine
Whether you're new to the world of green chemistry education and research, or a seasoned veteran, the Green Chemistry Teaching and Learning Community (GCTLC) offers a terrific chance to connect with others in the field. The mission of this online community portal is summed up by their four
Schoolab is an innovation studio that pairs student teams with corporate partners to solve real-world business & design challenges. In the US, they run a program at the University of California Berkeley called "Deplastify the Planet." Recently it became clear that the sustainable design solutions they were trying
See how one student’s determination to include sustainability in her chemistry research paper inspired a once-skeptical professor to become a passionate advocate for green chemistry research and education.

Hydrogen holds tremendous promise as a medium for storing power generated by renewable sources such as wind and solar. But storing hydrogen has traditionally involved very high pressures, or very cold temperatures; methods that lead to cost and safety challenges. Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory are testing news ways
See how - and why- a handful of people at CU Boulder worked to get green chemistry into the curriculum at their school. (Stay tuned for the full interview on our YouTube channel) Resources: Green Chemistry at CU Boulder The resources they relied on to make this happen: Beyond Benign
