Overview

Evaluating the environmental impacts of chemical processes and improving the environmental performance of chemical process designs are complex tasks involving a wide variety of analysis tools. To systematically present these tools, the group of chapters that follows is organized into a framework commonly employed in the design of chemical processes. The key steps in this framework are listed below.

1. Specify the product to be manufactured and evaluate potential environmental fate (Chapter 5), releases, and exposures (Chapter 6).
