SUMMARY:Sustainable Preparation of World Health Organization (WHO) Essential Medicines by Mechanochemistry
DESCRIPTION:Although significant efforts have been made to reduce the environmental impact of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) production\, the use of organic solvents—responsible for about 75% of the total energy consumption—remains a critical step in many processes. Solvent-free synthesis through mechanochemistry aligns with several of the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry\, offering a more environmentally responsible alternative for chemical synthesis.  \nJoin us for a free webinar on December 9th from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. EST to hear from Dr. Evelina Colacino\, Associate Professor at the University of Montpellier\, who will discuss the application of mechanochemical methods to the preparation of World Health Organization essential medicines at various scales. Using green chemistry metrics\, we evaluate the environmental and economic benefits of mechanochemistry\, demonstrating its potential to advance greener and more sustainable pharmaceutical manufacturing.  \n🌎 This webinar is part of the “Promoting Chemistry Applied to World Needs” series\, hosted by Beyond Benign and the IUPAC Committee on Chemical Research Applied to World Needs (CHEMRAWN).

SUMMARY:Catalyzing a Sustainable Future: Radical Redesign of Chemistry for Circularity
DESCRIPTION:Our popular Promoting Chemistry Applied to World Needs webinar series\, hosted in collaboration with IUPAC CHEMRAWN\, is back for its second year! Each webinar features experts who connect chemistry to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and IUPAC’s Top 10 Emerging Technologies.\n\nJoin us on April 9th at 10 a.m. EDT for the first session of 2026! In this session\, Professor Chris Slootweg of the University of Amsterdam will introduce circular chemistry as a framework for redesigning chemical production around reuse\, recovery\, and the conservation of critical raw materials. Through examples such as phosphate recycling\, safer and more sustainable phosphate flame retardants\, and liquid organic hydrogen carriers for large-scale hydrogen transport\, Chris will demonstrate how chemistry can serve as a practical tool for addressing waste\, resource depletion\, and the demands of the energy transition. \nRegister for the series and meet us online on April 9th. You’ll receive the Zoom link and access to the full series upon registration.
