Green chemistry is defined as a set of principles that reduce or prevent the use or generation of hazardous substances during the design, production, and utilization of chemical products. The vision of such a paradigm shift in the chemical sciences is that the concept of being green is directly introduced to the molecular design process and is centered on atom economy and the prevention of waste. This review examines the principles of green chemistry in relation to agro-industrial waste valorization, with specific reference to the ecological and economic conditions of India, where approximately 350 million metric tons of annual agro-residues have become a source of serious environmental management issues, such as greenhouse gas emissions through open burning, leachate waste generation through landfills, and effects on the health of the population through poor disposal practices. The analysis summarizes the latest developments in nanotechnology-based catalytic systems, new solvent platforms (ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, and supercritical fluids), and integrated biorefineries, and critically reviews the scalability limitations and commercial feasibility. It also discusses more recent developments, such as systems based on nanotechnology, catalyst transformations (homogeneous, heterogeneous, and biocatalysts), and the creation of alternative solvents, such as ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, and supercritical fluids. The virtues of agri-industrial residues and biomass-based feeds are given particular attention in terms of their role in models of the circular economy and the generation of value-added chemicals, fuels, and materials. By illustrating how green chemistry can minimize the environmental footprint of traditional processes and create safer and more economically viable alternatives, this review makes it clear why green chemistry has become a revolution in the field of industrial practice. Lastly, the paper addresses contemporary issues of scalability, economic competitiveness, and regulatory integration and outlines opportunities that will make green chemistry the foundation of sustainable, resource-efficient, and environmentally responsible chemical companies.

Altuner, Elif Esra; Tatli, Havva Nur; Aldoori, Bakr; Dar, Umar Ali
This chapter discusses how photocatalytic processes using nanotechnology can counteract the harm done to the environment by waste dyestuffs from industry combining with water, soil, and the environment. When waste dyestuffs from the business mingle with soil and drinking water, they pose a serious hazard to life. For this reason, it is of great importance to remove and neutralize waste dyes with the photocatalyst effect of sunlight and the synergistic effect of nanocatalysts synthesized through nanotechnological means. The photocatalysis process is both environmentally friendly and of great importance to living things. This chapter is also informative about photocatalysis research carried out by nanoparticles under the influence of sunlight.

Purpose: To evaluate retrobulbar adipose tissue of patients with active and inactive Graves’ orbitopathy (GO) by shear-wave ultrasound elastography (SWE). Methods: Followed-up in our ophthalmology clinic due to GO, 72 eyes of 36 patients and 38 eyes of 19 healthy controls were included in this cross-sectional case–control study. Graves’ patients were divided into two subgroups under clinical activity score (CAS): active Graves’ orbitopathy (AGO) (CAS ≥ 3) and inactive Graves’ orbitopathy (IGO) (CAS < 3). SWE measurement values of retrobulbar adipose tissue of all participants were recorded in meters/second, and the intergroup comparisons were performed. Results: Thirty-four eyes of 17 patients in AGO, 38 eyes of 19 patients in IGO, and 38 eyes of 19 participants in the control group were included in the study. Mean values measured from retrobulbar adipose tissue through SWE were 1.00 ± 0.01 m/sec in AGO, 1.16 ± 0.01 m/sec in IGO, and 0.94 ± 0.01 m/sec in the control groups. Even so, the mean SWE value was significantly higher in the IGO group than in the other groups (p < 0.001). Mean SWE values were significantly higher in the AGO group than in the controls (p = 0.008). In the correlation analysis performed, a significant positive correlation was found between SWE and Hertel exophthalmometer measurement values (p = 0.026, r = 0.212), and thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TSHR-Ab) levels (p = 0.018, r = 0.224). Conclusion: We detected SWE values of retrobulbar adipose tissue high in GO, especially in the IGO group. Such a situation, which we associated with the development of fibrosis, may be an indicator of unresponsiveness to immunomodulatory treatments.
