The excitement produced by fireworks like ‚ brightening the night sky and plunging it with vivid displays of colour and insignificant‚ which makes them a crowd pleaser. Behind all the excitement of fireworks‚ chemistry plays an important role in creating the vivid colours we witness lighting up the sky. The actual chemical reactions that take place in the explosions require the use of oxidisers‚ reducing agents and binders. The additions of varying metal chlorides

where green supply chain management comes into play. My question is: What can companies do to reduce the carbon footprints of their supply chains? The first issue is the problem of less than truckload shipments. So consolidating it into full truckloads would be a cheaper and greener solution. To advance truckload delivery‚ the enterpriser may install order minimums for customers and 48 hours advance notice of orders. Route optimizations should be enforced too.

Editor’s Note: This occasional series of articles looks at the vital things in our lives and the chemistry they are made of. You are what you eat. But do you recall munching some molybdenum or snacking on selenium? Some 60 chemical elements are found in the body‚ but what all of them are doing there is still unknown. Roughly 96 percent of the mass of the human body is made up of just four elements: oxygen‚ carbon‚ hydrogen and nitrogen‚ with a lot of that in the form of water. The remaining
