Green Chemistry Grants

A primary objective of the ACS Green Chemistry Institute® (GCI) is to advance research in green chemistry by promoting funding, increasing opportunities, and developing information on the benefits of green chemistry. Our efforts span the spectrum from theory and basic research through application and commercialization of science and technology. GCI also sponsors a number of research fellowships and scientific exchanges through our grants programs.

  While the ACS Petroleum Research Fund does not have a specific category of green chemistry research, several green chemistry projects have been supported by PRF. The program welcomes applicants with high quality fundamental research in the petroleum or alternative energy fields which may have a "green" focus.
