The development of materials and processes that respect the environment is a major challenge for companies that seek to innovate.
The research focus “Green Chemistry and Processes” of the CBC Carnot Institute addresses this R&D challenge by the elaboration and use of materials and compounds obtained from renewable resources as substitutes for dangerous compounds. Our research teams are also recognised for their work in catalysis, intensification of processes and treatment of waste effluents.
Green Chemistry:
Alternative solvents — Substitutes for dangerous chemicals — Solvent-free synthesis of organics, peptides, organometallics — Mechanochemistry
