The Bridge between Green IT and Green Chemistry

The research and development organizationsat chemical, pharmaceutical and life sciences companies offer possibilities to forge links between Green IT and Green Chemistry, beginning with intelligent planning and implementation of research projects. Avoidance of dangerous chemicals and solvents, fewer test series and optimized procedures for reduced use of energy can result if internal and external research data are consistently recorded and evaluated and can be used for test design and modeling. In this area,Accelrys offers a research and development platform that also integrates an automatic registration of reactants. Osthus also has created an R&D project management solution to meetthese requirements by capturing and analyzing experimental data in real-time and controlling additional research activities.

Conclusion

The collaboration of market participants and governments leads to new standards concerning higher productivity and environmental protection. According to the Federal Government, the CO2 emissions in Germany could be reduced by up to 25 percent in the year 2020 using Green IT solutions. The business value of these standardsis estimated to be 84 billion Euro . In addition, 259 of the biggest investors worldwidedrafted a common statement to governments worldwidein November last year.Their demand is for immediate guidelines to reduceclimate warming because theeconomic risks to be expected far exceed the consequences of the latest financial crisis. When the representatives of more than a quarter of the global marketsrequest governments to support corporate sector investments in CO2 reducing technologies with guidelines, it is distinctly clear that initiatives on Green IT and Green Chemistry have trend-setting and wide-spread significance.
