Increased awareness on a critical association between the natural environment and human development gave rise multiple projects, aiming to protect the natural environment and to preserve it for future generations. Chemists must be acquainted with the principles of green chemistry and the need to practice experimental chemistry with cleaner chemical reactions and sustainability. This is a major concern for all the educators forming new professionals within the Chemistry, Pharmacology and Biology curricula in the Faculty for Higher Studies Zaragoza from the National Autonomous University of Mexico. With this in mind, we start our teachings explaining from the very beginning, how important it is to perform microscale techniques and to follow the principles of green chemistry in the Basic Science Laboratory. Furthermore, we have modified, designed and evaluated working procedures related with chemical synthesis, kinetics and calorimetry. By doing this, we managed to greatly reduce the amount of reagents required and residues generated. Some laboratory reagents have been substituted with renewable substances. We have also included in our programme a regular treatment of residues generated during everyday laboratory work. Our goal is to emphasize the importance of minimizing the environmental impact of chemistry and to prepare environmentally concerned professionals who keep sustainability as main priority and perform chemistry procedures with good laboratory practice routines.

具有可持续性的化学教学

人们对自然环境与人类发展之间的关键联系的认识不断提高，因此开展了多个项目，旨在保护自然环境并为子孙后代保护自然环境。化学家必须熟悉绿色化学原理，并需要以更清洁的化学反应和可持续性来实践实验化学。这是所有墨西哥国立自治大学萨拉戈萨高等学院化学，药理学和生物学课程中形成新专业人员的所有教育工作者的主要关注。考虑到这一点，我们从一开始就开始讲授教学，说明在基础科学实验室中执行微尺度技术和遵循绿色化学原理的重要性。此外，我们修改了 设计和评估了与化学合成，动力学和量热法相关的工作程序。通过这样做，我们设法大大减少了所需试剂的数量和产生的残留物。一些实验室试剂已被可再生物质替代。我们还在计划中包括了对日常实验室工作中产生的残留物的常规处理。我们的目标是强调使化学对环境的影响最小化的重要性，并培养与环境相关的专业人员，这些专业人员将可持续性作为首要任务，并按照良好的实验室惯例进行化学操作。一些实验室试剂已被可再生物质替代。我们还在计划中包括了对日常实验室工作中产生的残留物的常规处理。我们的目标是强调使化学对环境的影响最小化的重要性，并培养与环境相关的专业人员，这些专业人员将可持续性作为首要任务，并按照良好的实验室惯例进行化学操作。一些实验室试剂已被可再生物质替代。我们还在计划中包括了对日常实验室工作中产生的残留物的常规处理。我们的目标是强调使化学对环境的影响最小化的重要性，并培养与环境相关的专业人员，这些专业人员将可持续性作为首要任务，并按照良好的实验室惯例进行化学操作。
