EPA Calls for Nominations for 2025 Green Chemistry Challenge Awards
Friday, August 30, 2024

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced on August 29, 2024, that it is now accepting nominations for the 2025 Green Chemistry Challenge Awards from companies or institutions that have developed a new green chemistry process or product that helps protect human health and the environment. According to EPA, its “efforts to speed the adoption of this revolutionary and diverse discipline have led to significant environmental benefits, innovation and a strengthened economy.” EPA states that the awards program highlights green chemistry that helps prevent pollution before it is created, making it a preferred approach for providing solutions to some of the nation’s most significant environmental challenges. The competition includes six award categories, including a category to recognize green chemistry technology that can prevent or reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and a category that debuted in 2023 to emphasize circularity through the design of greener chemicals and materials that can be continuously reused or remanufactured, thereby reducing waste. EPA will hold a webinar on October 9, 2024, to educate stakeholders on the awards and the nomination process. Nominations are due December 13, 2024. An independent panel of technical experts convened by the American Chemical Society Green Chemistry Institute will judge the 2025 nominations and make recommendations to EPA for the 2025 winners. EPA anticipates announcing awards in fall 2025.
