Abstract
This chapter provides an introduction to Green Chemistry metrics that allow the quantitative comparison of industrial processes, and essentially guide the design of new ones. The work includes mass-, energy-, greenhouse gas emission-, and solvent-based metrics, each providing a different view on the analysis of chemical processes.
