Website on Solvent Substitution in the Workplace

Abstract

Several research projects on solvent substitution in the workplace have been conducted in recent years. With a view to creating a website, this project will provide a user-friendly, nine-step approach to systematic substitution, from problem identification to evaluation of the option selected. The site will provide users with targeted information, including the technical, physicochemical and toxicological aspects of solvents, and identify the tools available for easy navigation through the process.
