Green Electrochemical Sensors: An Overview

Significant advances in green electrochemical sensors (G-ECS) for biological, ecological, and industrial studies are presented in this chapter. The design methods and electrode processes used are highlighted in detail, and applications are indicated where applicable. Chemicals, reagents, and methods that adhere to the principles of green analytical chemistry are already used in the design and use of G-ECS. With the primary goal of decreasing the environmental impact, harmless electrodes, environmentally friendly solvents and solutions, and techniques that allow for the decrease of sample size and waste product amounts are being used. These elements are briefly covered in this concise overview by addressing the state-of-the-art of G-ECS in relation to green chemistry. These designed and developed instruments are excellent and environmentally friendly chemical process concepts.
