  1. 2. The amount of waste produced can be decreased by minimizing the number of these in a reaction.
  2. 6. Prevention and minimization of these types of products is important.
  3. 7. The amount of this used in a reaction can be lowered by choosing more efficient chemical routes.
  4. 8. Using less dangerous chemicals in this type of reaction ensures it is less hazardous.
  5. 10. Ensuring this is high results in more reactant atoms forming products and less waste.
  6. 11. Doing this in real time, as a chemical reaction progresses, will prevent the formation of hazardous or polluting substances and waste.

  1. 1. The use of these in a reaction can lower the energy required and decrease reaction time.
  2. 2. Reduce the overall amount of these used especially those that are organic.
  3. 3. When designing chemical processes it is important to consider this a priority, it can be done by assessing and minimizing risks, consequentially lowering the chance of accidents occurring.
  4. 4. Renewable forms of this are more sustainable as they deplete less natural resources.
  5. 5. Products should be designed with this in mind, once released into the environment they will be able to break down harmlessly.
  6. 9. Predict the properties of these to reduce their toxicity by designing chemical processes accordingly.
