Abstract
Background
The substantially operated analytical instruments dealing in the area of analytical chemistry are traditional methods like high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC). Since they use solvents, produce trash, and require energy, these methods seriously compromise the natural milieu. The excessive consumption of an enormous number of organic solvents, along with the trash created from it, can contaminate the environment. As a result, researchers are now creating novel Green Analytical Chemistry approaches to address these environmental problems and create an ecologically preferable replacement.
Main body of the abstract
Ecologically preferable replacement can be accomplished by using a green solvent, such as ethanol or water, in place of harmful solvents. Additionally, the need for solvent can be decreased by omitting the sample preparation stage wherever possible or by utilising alternate green extraction methods. Adoption of compact methods like ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) may also result in a decrease in the amount of energy used and trash produced during analysis.
Short conclusion
This review features information on using sustainable practises in analytical chemistry as well as details on using green solvents and sample preparation methods such as Solid Phase Extraction (SPE), Qucheers. It also provides information related of application of green analytical techniques such UHPLC, High-Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC), and Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC).
