Dicks, Andrei Hent1st ed. 2015.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2015.1 online resource (95 p.)SpringerBriefs in Green Chemistry for Sustainability,2212-9898Description based upon print version of record.3-319-10499-3 Includes bibliographical references.Green Chemistry and Associated Metrics -- Atom Economy and Reaction Mass Efficiency -- The E Factor and Process Mass Intensity -- Selected Qualitative Green Metrics -- An Introduction to Life Cycle Assessment.This contribution to SpringerBriefs in Green Chemistry outlines and discusses the four major green chemistry metrics (atom economy, reaction mass efficiency, E factor and process mass intensity), at a level that is comprehensible by upper-level undergraduates. Such students have previously received fundamental training in organic chemistry basics, and are ideally positioned to learn about green chemistry principles, of which metrics is one foundational pillar. Following this, other green metrics in common use are discussed, along with applications that allow important calculations to be easily undertaken. Finally, an introduction to metrics in the context of life cycle analyses is presented. It should be noted that no other available publication teaches green chemistry metrics in detail with an emphasis on educating undergraduates, whilst simultaneously providing a contemporary industrial flavour to the material.SpringerBriefs in Green Chemistry for Sustainability,2212-9898Chemical engineeringScience educationOrganic chemistryIndustrial Chemistry/Chemical Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C27000Science Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O27000Organic Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C19007Chemical engineering.Science education.Organic chemistry.Industrial Chemistry/Chemical Engineering.Science Education.Organic Chemistry.546.34P.
