Abstract

This study explores the synergistic potential of merging Halalan Tayyiban Implementation Strategy (HTIS) with green chemistry principles to advance sustainable waste management practices. HTIS, which advocates for ethical and comprehensive considerations throughout a product^s life cycle, from material procurement to end-of-life management, aligns demonstrably with green chemistry^s emphasis on minimizing waste generation and maximizing energy efficiency across chemical processes. This conceptual investigation delves into the theoretical framework for this integration and proposes potential practical applications. Examples include incorporating non-toxic or biodegradable materials into product design and manufacturing, implementing HTIS-informed recycling and composting programs, and fostering the development of green chemical processes that inherently minimize waste production. The findings aim to contribute meaningfully to the ongoing global effort towards sustainable development by introducing a novel, integrated approach to waste management that bridges ethical and environmental considerations.
