M erck & Co., Inc . has cut its energy consumption in the past f ive years by 50

percent, and has pledged to reduce tota l globa l greenhouse gas emissions by 12percent by 2012 recent ly insta lled so lar energy pane ls at its off ices in New Jersey,

which generate 7.5 p ercent of the power at the com pany's headquarters .

GlaxoSmithKline redesigned its packaging to cut down the amount of materia ls it

uses to pack its products

B ig Pharma has learned that green practices, like reducing energy consumption, is

the next best thing to a hea lthy paycheck f rom a big customer .

A llergan the com pany's energy management, recyc ling and other environmenta l

eff orts save the com pany about $5 mi llion a year, or about .5 to 1 percent of the

com pany's tota l revenue . One area where the com pany is f ocusing its eff orts now is

in the area of reducing greenhouse gases

PRINCIPLES OF GREEN CHEM IST RY

Prevent wasteDesign sa f ety productsImplement less hazardous chemica l process, Use renewab le f eed stocks,

Employ cata lysts instead of stoichiometric reagents, Avoid chemica l derivates, Reduce so lvent use or use sa f er so lvents and reaction conditions, Improve energy eff iciency, Design biodegradabi lity, Ana lyze in rea l time to prevent pollution, Minimize accidents, recover all e lements

WHEN TO IM PLEM ENT GREENCHEM IST RY ?

Pre Clinical No. of mo lecu les very high

Phase I No. of mo lecu les still highVolumes invo lved very low

Phase II Limited No. of mo lecu lesVolumes increased

Phase III No. of mo lecu les f urther short listedVolumes f urther increased (kgs to ton)

Commercial DMF FiledVolumes high (tens of tons)

Phase II & Phase III : Right time to start exploring Green Chemistry based processes.

Will ensure next generation drugs are manufactured through Green Processes.

GREEN PRA CT ICES WHICH CA N B E FOLLOWED INHOSPITA LS FOR WA ST E MA NA GEM ENT

G etting started (Form a team, conduct assessment, provide education and training to implement a success f ul waste reduction program .

G reen Purchasing

Waste minimization (insta llation of on-site com post vesse l).Whi le choosing medica l waste .services, choose com panies that .practice environmenta lly sa f er

procedures .Use of green cleaning products .Incor poration of materia ls that are designed f or disassemb ly and recyc le / reuse at the end

of f unctiona l lif e .

TO S UM UP:

With green being the buzzword in the industry, inc luding pharma and hos pita l, such programmes wi ll be incor porated into cor porate per f ormance management .These will be implemented aggressive ly to ensure that com panies have a concrete plan to reduce year-on-year reduction on environment wastage and green The phrase think globa lly, act loca lly , shou ld be appl ied to the cor porate per f ormance management programme f or environmenta lwastage and green initiatives .
