green chemistry tools

CleanScreen

Tool Owner

ChemFORWARD is a leader in creating broad access to chemical hazard assessments and safer alternatives. Formulation Ingredient Intelligence Reports (FIIRs) are specifically designed for formulators of cleaners and degreasers to quickly screen, optimize, and pre-qualify their products for certification. 

ChemFORWARD leverages a shared, globally harmonized repository of chemical hazard assessments (CHAs), to quickly and cost-effectively provide an assessment of a formulation and suggest safer alternatives where needed.

ChemFORWARD Chemical Hazard Data Trust

Tool Owner

Managed by ChemFORWARD, the data trust is designed to simplify access to chemical hazard data from dozens of credible sources, curate, maintain and continuously improve the data, and harmonize the information for actionable decision support that will accelerate the global transition to safer chemistry. 

The data trust is populated and continually updated by licensed toxicologists using a comprehensive, globally accepted methodology. Each CHA is peer reviewed by independent toxicologists before being posted.

Green Chemistry and Engineering Learning Platform (GChELP)

A range of free, shareable, and interactive educational and training materials created to promote the uptake of green and sustainable methodologies in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. More than thirty multimedia modules cover topics in six core skill areas: Foundations of Green Chemistry and Engineering, Guides and Metrics, Solvents, Synthetic Toolbox, Process Design, and Life Cycle Impacts. 

Practical Green Chemistry Tools and Techniques for Research & Development Scientists

This free workshop offered at the ACS Spring 2024 meeting in New Orleans will equip industry-based R&D chemists and engineers, as well as graduate students, with practical green chemistry tools, methods, and metrics. The content of this workshop will cover green chemistry basics through to the most recent innovative tools and metrics widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. The workshop will be tailored toward scientists and engineers working in batch chemical operations in common use within the pharma industry, but the tools may be applied to other allied chemical industries (e.g.
