V. Wiskamp, ASPECTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL-PROTECTION IN CH EMISTRY LAB COURSES - SUGGESTIONS FOR TEACHING CHEMISTRY, Journal fur praktische Chemie, Chemiker-Zeitung, 335(3), 1993, pp. 217-224
It should be a goal in chemical education to create consciousness for
the urgent necessity of environmental protection. Lab courses offer th
e opportunity to meet some aspects of environmental protection like av
oiding highly poisonous materials, reducing the amount of materials, c
ollecting harmful materials separately, recycling waste. Some starting
materials can be saved and the amount of waste be reduced significant
ly. Traditional goals of education remain intact.
