Abstract

Safe and Sustainable-by-design chemicals are an increasingly important topic in early-stage chemical process development. This study evaluates two pyrolysis production pathways in the early stage for renewable aniline, an important platform chemical for producing polyurethane and other industrial and pharmaceutical purposes. The sustainability assessment is performed at an early stage of process development, with the used data obtained from existing literature, as no experimental proof of concept has been performed yet. A selection of green chemistry indices is employed to perform a mass-based comparative analysis of the environmental impacts of these pathways. Applying the Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) framework and green chemistry metrics, this research aims to identify the advantages and disadvantages of both pathways.
