| Abstract | ||
| According to the twelve principals of eco-friendly modern science which names “Green Chemistry” along with their practical environmental metrics which necessary to be used in order to develop, achieve, and perform the sustainability of the chemical safety and security, through an application of these practical metrics in both of academia and industry. These metrics are includes: e-Factor, Atom Economy, Atom Efficiency, Effective Mass Yield, Carbon Efficiency, Reaction Mass Efficiency, and Environmental Quotient. While, there are many issues not addressed by these metrics such as energy concerns (Process–interior and exterior), life cycle analysis, renewable feedstock (starting materials), reaction types (safety or stoichiometric vs. catalysts reagents), and environmental quotient as well. However, the practical metrics and measurements have been discussed separately. | ||
