Future Trends in Environmentally Safe Chemicals
Driven by increasing consumer awareness and regulatory pressure to reduce the use of hazardous substances, the chemicals industry is shifting to greener, environmentally safer chemicals and replacing traditional ones. As a result, new, non-toxic chemicals are being developed. Environmentally safe chemicals present several advantages over their traditional counterparts. They reduce the risk of toxic exposure, minimize air and water pollution, and often result in lower greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, these safer chemicals often leave behind fewer harmful residues once they degrade. Key market categories driving this initiative include: Bio-Based Chemicals Bio-based chemicals replace traditional fossil fuel-based stocks with biologically sourced…
