The place of Green Analytical Chemistry in the future of our laboratories
Making our analytical methodologies greener is something of interest not only for the future but also for the
present [38]. The experiments presented above are green schemes for already existing conventional materials.
The green analytical experiments are concerned with the design, development and implementation of products
and chemical processes that include elimination of toxic organic solvents/reagents, solventless synthesis, less
waste generation, reuse, facile methods of preparation at low temperature range, shorter reaction time, high
yields and so on. Use of on-line determination helps the students to learn various instrumentation methods of
analysis for example, UV/Vis and IR spectroscopy, AAS to name a few. Green chemistry experiments are
introduced not to drastically replace the conventional ones; rather they are considered complementary to the
existing protocols. This not only provides a wider view of various techniques but also imbibes inquest in
innovative minds for future development and growth of the subject in general with due emphasis to green
chemistry context.
