Natural resources are under huge pressure due to human population growth and societal change. As a result, rational use of resources and efficient reduction of pollutants have become critical. Chemistry occupies a key position in improving efficiency and reducing pollution. Efficient and environmentally-friendly chemical processes to exploit resources are in demand.
