Abstract
This paper highlights the work undertaken to assess the current state of the art of the Chemical Engineering Laboratory at the University of Bradford (UK) in terms of total energy and water usage and sound pollution and to propose an action plan to ‘greening’ the laboratory so that future students are trained in a laboratory where sustainability is the key feature of all learning activities. The project was funded by National Higher Education STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics) Programme. This review and assessment was carried out by two academic staff and one technical staff member with chemical engineering background.
