The theme, Environment and Green Chemistry, focuses upon all aspects of sustainable Chemistry. It includes the development and translation of molecular tools and technologies to improve the efficiency of resources and yields, to impact upon challenges within the agri-sciences & agrochemistry, green synthesis & processes, efficient recycling & degradation, and studying the influence of chemistry upon the environment.
The coordinator for this theme is Dr Laura Barter. For general enquiries about this theme please contact her at l.barter@imperial.ac.uk or feel free to contact any members of the theme listed below for more specific enquiries.
