Green chemistry has developed mathematical parameters to describe the sustainability of chemical reactions and processes, in order to quantify their environmental impact. These parameters are related to mass and energy magnitudes, and enable analyses and numerical diagnoses of chemical reactions. The environmental impact factor (E factor), atom economy, and reaction mass efficiency have been the most influential metrics, and they are interconnected by mathematical equations. The ecodesign concept must also be considered for complex industrial syntheses, as a part of the sustainability of manufacturing processes. The aim of this Concept article is to identify the main parameters for evaluating undesirable environmental consequences.
绿色化学已经开发出数学参数来描述化学反应和过程的可持续性，以便量化它们的环境影响。这些参数与质量和能量有关，能够对化学反应进行分析和数值诊断。环境影响因子（E 因子）、原子经济性和反应质量效率是最具影响力的指标，它们通过数学方程式相互关联。对于复杂的工业合成，还必须考虑生态设计概念，作为制造过程可持续性的一部分。本文的目的是确定评估不良环境后果的主要参数。
