Presentation on Green Technology which covers it Introduction, Categories, Goals and lastly three case studies about aero farms, Virtual Power Plant and Singapore Green Plan 2030.
3. In recent years, the urgency to address environmental challenges and
promote sustainability has become increasingly apparent. As we strive
to build a better future, the role of technology in fostering a sustainable
planet cannot be understated.
Green technology, also known as sustainable technology or clean
technology, has emerged as a powerful force in transforming our world
for the better.
Introduction
4. It is a technology which is environmentally friendly, developed
and used in such a way so that it doesn't disturb our
environment and conserves natural resources.
It is also known as environmental technology and clean
technology
WHAT IS GREEN TECHNOLOGY?
5. Green Technology
Enviroment friendly technology
Conserve Natural Resource and the
Enviroment-Sustainable Devlopment
Radical Thinking To change
Innovative technology
6. Green engineering is the design, commercialization, and use of
processes and products that minimize pollution, promote
sustainability, and protect human health without sacrificing
economic viability and efficiency.
Now,Let us understand PRINCIPLES OF GREEN ENGINEERING
Green Engineering
7. Holistic approach, systems thinking and
management
Precautionary and preventive approaches
Annual sustainability reporting using GRI
A.Tridimensional principles
Principles
8. B.Enviromental Principles
Circular economy, waste minimization, sustainability hierarchies .
Efficient use of resources, and increased share of renewables .
Sustainable consumption and production.
C.Social principles
Equalities within and between generations .
Engagement of communities and all stakeholders .
Corporate social responsibility and decent work .
9. D.Economic principles
Human capital, innovations, and
creativity .
Cost–benefit analysis using Life
Cycle Assessment.
Internalizing externalities—
polluters must pay
10. Categories of Green Technology
Green Chemistry
Green Nanotechnology
Green Energy
Green IT
Green Building
11. Green Chemistry
Green chemistry promotes the use of
inherently safer chemicals to minimize risks
to human health and the environment.
Design of processes to maximize the
amount of raw material that ends up in the
product.
The concept considers the entire life cycle
of a product, from raw material extraction
to disposal, to make processes more
sustainable.
12. The approach encourages energy-
efficient methods, ultimately
reducing the overall environmental
footprint.
Fosters innovation in the
development of sustainable
technologies and solutions for
chemical processes.
13. Green Nanotechnology
It will help provide clean water to
billions.
Ability to recycle after use.
Nanotechnology can also help in waste
management and environmental
remediation.
14. In , green nanotech is utilized for drug
delivery systems, diagnostics, and
imaging, aiming to enhance treatment
efficacy while minimizing side effects.
Renewable Energy Applications in solar cells
and energy storage devices
Nano-Enabled Agriculture
15. Green Energy
Green energy comes from natural sources
such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, plants,
algae and geothermal heat.
These energy resources are renewable.
Types : Solar power
Wind power
Hydro power
Geothermal energy
Biofuel
Biogas
16. Green IT
Energy-Efficient Hardware
Serverless Cloud Computing and virtulization
Remote Collaboration Tools
Renewable Energy for Data Centers
Power Management
Green IT focuses on responsible disposal and
recycling of electronic waste (e-waste) to
minimize environmental impact and encourage
the reuse of valuable materials
17. Green Building
Renewable Energy Integration.
Energy Efficiency:through the use of
advanced insulation, energy-efficient
appliances, reducing overall energy
consumption.
Smart Building Technologies
Natural Ventilation and Lighting
18. Water Conservation:implement water-
efficient technologies like low-flow
fixtures, rainwater harvesting, and
greywater systems to minimize water.
Materials Used : Organic compounds
paints. Bamboo flooring, Woven wool
for carpeting. Ecological concrete.
(2CaO.SiO2), Paper insulation panels.
