This paper investigates the application of green chemistry principles in
food processing and packaging. As the global demand for sustainable and safe food
production increases, green chemistry offers innovative approaches to minimize
environmental impacts, reduce toxic substances, and improve food quality and safety. The
study reviews recent advancements in biodegradable packaging materials, clean-label
processing, and waste valorization technologies. Through literature review and qualitative
analysis, the research highlights the potential of green chemistry to transform traditional
food systems into more eco-efficient and consumer-friendly models.
