In the 21st century, Jiangxi Chemical Chemicals and Green Chemicals Zhou Yi (Jiangxi Chemical Technology School) are particularly eye-catching. All countries in the world have introduced a series of relevant policies to support green chemical products and pay attention to the human living environment. After all, humans have only one earth.
From the point of view of most people, green chemical products and chemical industry are not irrelevant or even somewhat antagonistic, but long-term strategic sustainable development practices of some large foreign companies are worthy of learning and learning from Chinese companies.
The sustainable development of chemical companies In the early days, the chemical industry often caused harm to the environment, or hidden dangers. The chemical companies must not only survive but also pay attention to protecting the environment. This problem seems to be not easy to solve.
The world's multinational corporations generally use 5%-10% of the total annual sales for research and development, hoping to continue to develop high-quality, environmentally-friendly fine chemical products and these new products also support the general view of companies that sustainable development of the company There are two important points.
First of all, for the internal staff of an enterprise, formulating humane rules and regulations helps employees to integrate into the company. In these international multinational companies, the health of employees ranked first. Each employee participates in health-related activities. If the individual spends $100, the company will also provide $100 for free. The purpose is to remind and encourage employees to care about their own health. The relevant measures are detailed and specific among these multinational companies. For the company to create a good internal environment for sustainable development.
In addition, to maintain the sustainable development of enterprises, we must also pay attention to the relationship with the external environment. In the European and American developed countries, in the judging system, corporate profits and sales are no longer the only criteria, and how much the company's contribution to society has been included in the scope of assessment. There are a number of funds in the US stock market, including the famous Dow Jones index, which has a sustainable development index. Investors are not only concerned about the returns of enterprises, but also are concerned about whether they are doing charity activities for the society. This encourages some ambitious companies to adapt to change, actively participate in the beautification of the surrounding environment, promote the construction of civilization in the surrounding communities, and bring closer distances with nearby residents.
Compared with Western developed countries, chemical companies in China have not paid enough attention to the inextricable link between sustainable development and environmental protection. Although we are aware of the importance of this issue, because many chemical companies in China are small in scale and technologically low, they are still in the start-up phase of a business. Many companies are not on the right track, and the issue of sustainable development has not been put on the agenda. schedule. When the company develops to a certain scale, the reputation of the enterprise and the trademark will play a decisive role in the development of the enterprise. At that time, the concept of environmental protection and sustainable development will gradually enter the hearts of the people.
The chemical industry was once considered a sunset industry, but the experience of developed countries in Europe and America tells us that the old industry can also be a new life.
Green Chemicals Green Chemistry is the forefront of international chemical science research today. It absorbs the latest theories and technologies in contemporary chemistry, physics, biology, materials, and information science. From a scientific point of view, green chemistry is the renewal of the basic content of chemical science; the concept of sustainable development from the perspective of environmental protection has been deeply rooted. From the economic point of view, society sees the elimination of pollution from the source; from the economic point of view, it sees chemical and green chemical products in September 2003. 71 It reasonably uses resources and energy, reduces production costs, and meets the requirements of sustainable development.
A color that symbolizes nature, life, health, comfort, and vitality, which brings people back to nature. In the face of environmental pollution, it is synonymous with pollution-free, pollution-free, and environmental protection. Its general meaning does not need to be explained in any more way. The public knows and accepts.
So, what kind of chemical products is considered to be green chemical products, or what characteristics do green chemical products have? Generally green chemical products should have two characteristics: 1 The product itself must not cause environmental pollution or health problems, including Damage to wildlife, beneficial insects, or plants 2 When the product is used, it should be recycled or easily degraded into harmless material in the environment.
The above two characteristics have imposed requirements on the nature of the green chemical product itself and the final product after use. First of all, the product itself should not be harmful to human health and the environment. This is the minimum requirement for a green chemical product. Second, when the original function of a product is completed, it should not be left intact in the environment. In the form of degradation products, either as raw materials for the product cycle, or as non-toxic substances left in the environment, which requires the product itself must have degradation properties.
In the design of traditional functional chemical products, only the design of functions is emphasized, and considerations for the environment and human hazards are neglected. However, in the design of green chemicals, both product functions and environmental impacts are required.
In fact, with regard to the pollution of some of the earliest chemical products that have been exposed, solutions have been found through people’s efforts. For example, in order to deal with the "white pollution" of plastics, people have studied biodegradable plastics; in order to eliminate the harm of pesticides to society and humans, people have studied highly selective, chlorine-free new insecticides.
The developed countries, led by the United States, attach great importance to the research and development of green chemical products, have invested a lot of manpower and material resources, and have taken the lead in the world in solving pollution research of chemical products. They have conducted research on the pollution of many chemical products and have found a solution to the problem to some extent. The United States' "Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge Award" is a more complete chemical design award, and it also reflects the latest achievements in this field.
Green Chemical Success Illustration 1 A new member of the chemical pesticide family, Confirm*Confhm*, is a breakthrough in caterpillar control that provides farmers and social consumers a safer and more efficient control of grassland and winter crops The technology of insects, while there is no significant danger to users, consumers, and ecosystems, it will replace many of the old, less potent and dangerous insecticides and have been classified as hazardous by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Insecticide.
2 A New Antibacterial Agent THPS Biocide THPS Biocide is a new antibacterial agent that combines excellent antibacterial activity with a relatively friendly toxicological feature. The benefits of THPS include low toxicity, low recommended treatment standards, rapid decomposition in the environment, and no bioaccumulation. THPS fungicides reduce the harm to human health and the environment when replacing the more toxic fungicides.
