Principal Investigator Development in Sustainability Grant
Purpose
This award will provide funding to early or mid-career investigators (Associate+) to spend 6-12 months in the laboratory of a private company, a national laboratory, or an academic laboratory in a different institution, with the goal of establishing robust collaborations across industry-academia or across disciplines and taking advantage of the mentorship of a faculty member distinct from their prior mentors.
Heh-Won Chang, PhD Fellowship in Green Chemistry
The Heh-Won Chang, Ph.D. Fellowships provide financial support to full-time graduate students conducting research in green chemistry and/or engineering.
Description:
Early Career Postdoctoral-Faculty Bridge Grant
This award provides a post-doctoral fellow/associate or faculty in first 9 months of appointment who plans to launch an independent research career in academia, funds to support a post-doctoral associate/fellow for two years once their new research group is launched.
DOZN™ Quantitative Green Chemistry Evaluator
Tool Owner
The DOZN™ tool is a quantitative, industry-first tool that uses the 12 principles of green chemistry for comparing the relative greenness of similar chemicals, synthetic routes, and chemical processes. We distill these 12 Principles of Green Chemistry into three major categories: improving resource use, more efficient use of energy, and minimizing human and environmental hazards.
Innovative Approaches for the Sound Management of Chemicals and Chemical Waste (IAMC) Toolkit
Tool Owner
The toolkit “Innovative Approaches for the Sound Management of Chemicals and Chemical Waste” (IAMC), developed in a framework of the UNIDO project*, aims to facilitate the implementation of innovations in the production and application of chemicals in order to reduce the consumption of chemicals, energy and water while improving the sound management of chemicals and reducing risks related to chemical accidents.
Applying green chemistry to raw material selection and product formulation at The Estée Lauder Companies
Advances in green chemistry over the past 25 years have improved sustainability in the development of new cosmetic and personal care products. Product formulators benefit from an expanding palette of “greener” natural and synthetic ingredients but need clear guidance on how to choose among options to optimize formula sustainability while also evaluating for performance. As greener can have a variety of meanings, for the purpose of this article, we define greener as being aligned with green chemistry principles.
