Green chemistry is considered one of the most important scientific approaches aimed at reducing environmental pollution, increasing resource efficiency, and ensuring sustainable industrial development. The concept of green chemistry focuses on designing chemical products and processes that minimize or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances. This article analyzes the scientific foundations of green chemistry principles and evaluates their role in developing environmentally safe chemical processes. The study discusses the twelve principles of green chemistry proposed by Paul Anastas and John Warner and examines their practical implementation in modern industries such as pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, polymer production, agriculture, and energy systems. Scientific data related to catalytic technologies, renewable raw materials, solvent-free synthesis, atom economy, waste minimization, and energy-efficient processes are analyzed based on published literature. The article also highlights the ecological and economic advantages of green chemistry technologies and identifies major challenges associated with industrial implementation. The findings demonstrate that green chemistry significantly contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, minimizing toxic waste formation, conserving natural resources, and supporting sustainable development goals.
