=**__ Green Chemistry in Industry __**=

__ What is Green Chemistry? __ Green Chemistry is the people who want to protect our environment by producing a product that doesn't affect our environment. Most of the people don't even care about our environment and doesn't even know about our environment. But people who loves our environment, knows a lot about it. For example, people drink from the plastic bottles and that end up in a pile of garbage that most of the birds take it as their food. That affects them a lot and us. We don't like to see those animals suffering by themselves because of us. We need to be greener and it's a design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use or generation of hazardous substances.

__ Principle 1: Use Renewable Resources as Starting Materials __

Using renewable resources is a natural substance that replenishes itself as it is used. I know it's hard to look for a renewable resource to replace some ingredients that affects our environment. We should use raw materials that is renewable resources rather than economic practicable. A lot of scientist is looking for renewable resources like Nylon (a synthetic fibre) its manufacture uses chemicals derived from oil and we already know that oil affects our environment because it creates pollution into the air. Biocatalysts are helping to find renewable alternatives to oil-based raw materials. Another material that companies are looking for are plastic. Adipic acid is a key ingredient in the production of certain plastics including nylon and polyurethane. Benzene is a compound that is anything but green. It is a known carcinogen. It's from oil a non-renewable resource.

Glucose is another substitute for benzene. We know that glucose is the sugar that is the body's main source of energy. Glucose is used in food crop. The catalyst make possible substitution of glucose for benzene is a modified version of the E, coli bacteria. Some people say that we should use less plastic and that is the best way to "Go Green". We would carfully change materials into renewable resources to produce with the green chemistry.

If we look between renewable resources and non-renewable resources, there is a lot of different between them. Like for example, for non-renewable is plastic, this plastic is made out of oil and that produce pollution. For renewable resources is water, plants,the sun and more. Renewable is saving our environment and protecting them. Non- renewable is destroying the environment by producing chemical pollution and products. Therefore, green chemistry in industry is the way to find raw materials to produce some product that use renewable resources and that doesn't affect our environment.

3 things that i learned


 * 1) In bioremediation, there is 3 types of them and one of them is Intrinsic bioremediation and it's when micro-organisms naturally degrade the contaminants in the soil and water
 * 2) Scotchgard is made out of florochemicals.
 * 3) Stomach acid is hydrochloric acid that is a digestive fluid in your stomach that helps with the digestion of the food that you eat.
