उत्तर

Prevention of waste or by products:

  1. According to this principle of green chemistry, priority is given for the prevention of waste rather than cleaning up and treating waste after it has been generated.
  2. Illustration: To develop zero waste technology (ZWT).
    As per ZWT, in chemical synthesis, the waste products should be zero or minimum.
  3. It also aims to use the waste product of one system as the raw material for other systems.
    For example:
    a. Bottom ash of thermal power station can be used as a raw material for cement and brick industry.
    b. Effluent coming out from cleansing of machinery parts may be used as coolant water in a thermal power station.
