GREEN CHEMISTRY

In the year 1987, the World Environment Commission published

a report. Our Environment that emphasized the need for sustainable

development. Sustainable development means development to fulfill

the needs of the present generation without endangering the needs

of the future generation. The concept includes many aspects of which

utilization of renewable resources and protection of the environment is

This has brought the concept of GREEN CHEMISTRY – producing

chemicals

With minimum damage to the environment

STOPS EXTERNAL BLEEDING

BINDS RADIO ACTIVE COMPOUNDS

REDUCES MUSCLE PAIN FROM LACTIC

ACID

REDUCES FUNGAL FOOD INFECTIONS

STABILIZES AND REGULATES IMMUNE

REDUCES SIDE EFFECT OF

CHEMOTHERAPY\RADIATION

BUILDING INDUSTRY ZEOLITE HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE AN

EXCELLENT POZZOLAN (PORTALAND

CEMENT SUBSTITUTE)IN CONCRETE

ZEOSTORE ZEOLITE IS 50% LIGHTER THAN

SAND, THERE BY ZEOLITE SPREAD EASIER

AND PROVIDES A SMOOTHER CONCRETE

SURFACE WITH NO CLUMPING

IMPROVED RESISTANCE TO CHEMICAL

ATTACKES BY SALT ON CONCRETES USED

IN DESERT SOIL,GREATER RESISTANCE TO

CORROSION BY SOIL HIGH IN SULPHATE

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

USES OF ZEOLITE

THEY CAN INTERACT WITH WATER OR WATER TO ABSORB OR RELEASE IONS (ION EXCHANGE)

THEY CAN HOLD LARGE MOLECULES AND HELP THEM BREAK INTO SMALL PIECES (CATALITIC CRACKING)

WATER SOFTNERS,TO REMOVE CALCIUM IONS,WHICH REACT WITH SOAP TO FORM SCUM

TO CLEAN RADIO ACTIVE WASTE FROM THE THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR POWER PLANT SITE

Conclusion

All chemicals not destroying our nature

It depends on the activity of humans withthese chemicals

We can use these chemicals for thedevelopment of environment

So we don’t want to see chemicals as akilling agent
