Abstract
Green chemistry is the design of chemical products and processes which reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances. in the last decade, green chemistry has been recognized as a new approach to scientifically based environmental protection. Catalysis has manifested its role as a fundamental tool in pollution prevention. While catalysis has long been utilized in increasing efficiency, yield, and selectivity, it is now also recognized as accomplishing a wide range of green chemistry goals.
