• Sommario/riassunto: Production-integrated environmental protection is synonymous with - reducing the amount of potential pollutants at source- reducing the consumption of resources and energy- recycling and utilization of residues and used products, and therefore a topic of considerable current interest.No chemical process exists that produces only the product desired. Therefore it is an important aim of the chemical industry to reduce the environmental effects of residues of chemical processes.This can be achieved by:- optimizing processes- applying new synthes
