绿色化学是当今化学研究的一个新兴领域，它涉及对环境友好、经济和污染少的化学过程的研究和应用。绿色化学基于某些原则，强调在化学合成或过程的所有步骤中减少或消除有害物质的使用和产生。化学家和科学家正在努力通过遵循绿色化学的所有宝贵原则，将对人类健康和环境的风险降至最低。绿色化学是指在各种分子的合成和研究过程中，必须使用环境友好、无害、可再生、高效的溶剂、催化剂和化学品。酶是绿色化学中的重要工具，因为它们作为催化剂，加速化学反应，不使用苛刻的条件和化学品，并且可重复使用。
Green chemistry is rapidly emerging area of chemical research today which is associated with research and applications of chemical processes which are environmental benign, economical and less polluting. Green chemistry is based on certain principles emphasising on the reduction or elimination the use and generation of hazardous substances in all steps of chemical synthesis or process. Chemists and scientists are working to minimizing the risk for human health and the environment by following all the valuable principles of green chemistry. The green chemistry insists to utilize eco-friendly, nonhazardous, reproducible and efficient solvents and catalysts and chemicals in synthesis of various molecules and in researches. Enzymes are important tools in green chemistry as they act as catalysts which accelerate the chemical reactions, works without using harsh conditions and chemicals and are reusable.
