Design chemical syntheses to prevent waste. Leave no waste to treat or clean up.
Prevent waste
HYDROSYNTHESISTM refers to the chemical process behind the Green Chemistry of ALLE products. This innovative technology is highly robust, safe and sustainable.
Our Core Technology - HYDROSYNTHESISTM
TM
01
ALLE products undergo HYDROSYNTHESISTM by harnessing the natural energy of water, be it in the form of atmospheric moisture or liquid, to form permanent chemical bonds. As a result, ALLE products are versatile in different application temperatures, humidity, and conditions.

Products which cure via HYDROSYNTHESISTM are safe as they do not utilize hazardous chemicals, nor do they release any harmful chemicals to the environment.
Designs chemical products and processes to reduce their intrinsic hazards.
Lessens and sometimes eliminates hazard from existing products and processes.
Reduces the negative impacts of chemical products and processes on human health and the environment.
Results in source reduction because it prevents the generation of pollution.
Applies innovative scientific solutions to real-world environmental problems.
Is a philosophy that applies to all areas of chemistry, not a single discipline of chemistry.
Prevents pollution at the molecular level.
Green chemistry:
Green Chemistry is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use or generation of hazardous substances. Green chemistry applies across the life cycle of a chemical product, including its design, manufacture, use, and ultimate disposal.
Definition of Green Chemistry
If a technology reduces or eliminates the hazardous chemicals used to clean up environmental contaminants, this technology would qualify as a green chemistry technology. One example is replacing a hazardous sorbent [chemical] used to capture mercury from the air for safe disposal with an effective, but nonhazardous sorbent. Using the nonhazardous sorbent means that the hazardous sorbent is never manufactured and so the remediation technology meets the definition of green chemistry.
Remediation removes hazardous materials from the environment; on the other hand, green chemistry keeps the hazardous materials out of the environment in the first place.
Green chemistry reduces pollution at its source by minimizing or eliminating the hazards of chemical feedstocks, reagents, solvents and products. This is unlike cleaning up pollution (also called remediation), which involves treating waste streams (end-of-the-pipe treatment) or cleanup of environmental spills and other releases. Remediation may include separating hazardous chemicals from other materials, then treating them so they are no longer hazardous or concentrating them for safe disposal. Most remediation activities do not involve green chemistry.
How green chemistry differs from cleaning up pollution.
These principles demonstrate the breadth of the concept of green chemistry.

Chemistry's
12 principles.
Maximize atom economy
Design syntheses so that the final product contains the maximum proportion of the starting materials. Waste few or no atoms.
Design less hazardous chemical syntheses
Design syntheses to use and generate substances with little or no toxicity to either humans or the environment.
Design safer chemicals and products
Design chemical products that are fully effective yet have little or no toxicity.
Use safer solvents and reaction conditions
Avoid using solvents, separation agents, or other auxiliary chemicals. If you must use these chemicals, use safer ones.
Increase energy efficiency
Run chemical reactions at room temperature and pressure whenever possible.
Use renewable feedstocks
Use starting materials (also known as feedstocks) that are renewable rather than depletable. The source of renewable feedstocks is often agricultural products or the wastes of other processes; the source of depletable feedstocks is often fossil fuels (petroleum, natural gas, or coal) or mining operations.
Avoid chemical derivatives
Avoid using blocking or protecting groups or any temporary modifications if possible. Derivatives use additional reagents and generate waste.
Use catalysts, not stoichiometric reagents
Minimize waste by using catalytic reactions. Catalysts are effective in small amounts and can carry out a single reaction many times. They are preferable to stoichiometric reagents, which are used in excess and carry out a reaction only once.
Design chemicals and products to degrade after use
Design chemical products to break down to innocuous substances after use so that they do not accumulate in the environment.
Analyze in real time to prevent pollution
Include in-process, real-time monitoring and control during syntheses to minimize or eliminate the formation of byproducts.
Minimize the potential for accidents
Design chemicals and their physical forms (solid, liquid, or gas) to minimize the potential for chemical accidents including explosions, fires, and releases to the environment.
