Green chemistry, also called sustainable chemistry, is a chemical philosophy encouraging the design of products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances. Whereas environmental chemistry is the chemistry of the natural environment, and of pollutant chemicals in nature, green chemistry seeks to reduce and prevent pollution at its source. 3, record 10, English, - green%20chemistry

The concept of Sustainable Chemistry represents an area of innovation, which not only preserves resources, but also stands for a development process in the chemical industry. Sustainable Chemistry aspirates to raise the stake of less dangerous chemicals as well as production of environmentally high-quality products from preferable renewable resources. This obviates emissions and excessive consumption of resources like energy and materials. The principle of Sustainable Chemistry comprises important elements in areas like environment, economy and society. Sustainable Chemistry deals with the whole life of intrinsic safe chemicals and products, including their production, processing, use and disposal. Intrinsic safe chemicals and products are characterised by low toxicity to environment and human health and low persistence and accumulation potential. Thereby environment and human health are protected in the first place in the life of chemicals and socio-economic follow-up costs are avoided. Additionally, production of sustainable chemicals and products contributes to economic profit for innovative enterprises and thereby affords an opportunity for competitive advantage compared to production and marketing in old-fashioned concepts. This includes innovative concepts like chemical leasing and operation of (Quantitative) Structure-Activity Relationship [Q)SAR). 4, record 10, English, - green%20chemistry

Le concept de chimie verte est défini en 1998 par les chimistes américains Paul Anastas et John C. Warner, appartenant à l'EPA, Environmental Protection Agency. La chimie verte prévoit l'utilisation de principes pour réduire et éliminer l'usage ou la génération de substances néfastes pour l'environnement, par de nouveaux procédés chimiques et des voies de synthèses « propres », c'est-à-dire respectueuses de l'environnement. 5, record 10, French, - chimie%20verte

The boilers are fed wood fuel from the main fuel bin located adjacent to the boiler house. The boilers are the "pile burner" type, which burn wood in a large pile on the floor of a refractory lined furnace box. Combustion efficiency with this type of boiler is generally low but pile burners are simple and therefore relatively inexpensive. Low combustion efficiency also means that emissions such as particulates and carbon monoxide are relatively high. One notable advantage to these systems is that high moisture content fuels can be burned as well as "dirty" fuels containing debris. 3, record 11, English, - pile%20burner
Record number: 11, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Pile burner : Boilers incorporating a pile burning design find applications where the anticipated wood fuel has a high(up to 65%) relative moisture content, as is found in whole green tree chips, bark, and green mill residue. Grates serve to support the fuel, and underfire air flowing up through the grates provides oxygen for combustion, cools the grates, promotes turbulence in the fuel bed, and dries the fuel. The most common form of pile burning is the Dutch oven, which was used almost exclusively during the early part of the century(Guinn and Turner 1990). 4, record 11, English, - pile%20burner

Canada Centre for Mineral and Energy Technology(CANMET), the research and development arm of Natural Resources Canada, is working in partnership with the Canadian Home Builders’ Association to champion the design and construction of more environmentally appropriate, energy-efficient housing. The Advanced Houses Program, an initiative under Canada's Green Plan to reduce global warming, provides industry with the opportunity to develop and field test new products and technologies. Under the Advanced Houses Program, ten prototype homes, all winners of a national design competition, are being constructed across Canada. Each Advanced House is designed to minimize its impact on the external environment by consuming less than one-quarter the energy and one-half the water of a conventional canadian home and has a significantly better level of comfort and indoor air quality. 1, record 15, English, - Advanced%20Houses%20Program

Le Centre canadien de la technologie des minéraux et de l'énergie (CANMET), l'organisme de recherche-développement de Ressources naturelles Canada, s'est joint à l'Association canadienne des constructeurs d'habitations pour promouvoir des concepts et des techniques de construction plus écologiques et plus éconergétiques. Pour donner suite aux recommandations du Plan vert relatives au réchauffement planétaire, on a lancé le Programme de la maison performante, qui fournit à l'industrie les moyens d'essayer en conditions réelles de nouveaux produits et technologies. Dans le cadre du Programme de la maison performante, on a construit dix maisons prototypes réparties à travers le Canada. Tous ces projets ont été sélectionnés par un concours national. On a conçu chacune de ces maisons pour réduire à un strict minimum son impact sur l'environnement. Elles consomment moins d'un quart de l'énergie et la moitié de l'eau utilisées dans une maisons ordinaire canadienne et les niveaux de confort et de qualité de l'air y sont bien plus élevés. 1, record 15, French, - Programme%20de%20la%20maison%20performante
