Is micellar catalysis green, or can we push it further? We combined techno-economic and sustainability analysis across six processes, identifying today’s limits and the path toward sustainable aqueous manufacturing. Congrats to Mert on this new work! @greenchemistry.rsc.org

We kicked off the year with a new @greenchemistry.rsc.org paper! A light-driven Ullmann homocoupling using Pd #SACs, where light tunes Pd coordination to drive catalysis under ambient conditions. #SACs cut CO₂ (~70%), water (~75%), energy (~62%) & Pd use (~93%). Congrats Areti & team!
