MilliporeSigma (The life science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany) developed and launched DOZN™2.0 in 2017, a unique web-based greener alternative scoring matrix. This quantitative green chemistry evaluator is based on the 12 principles of green chemistry for customers to evaluate their relative greenness of their processes which provide a framework for learning about green chemistry and designing or improving materials, products, processes, and systems. DOZN™2.0 scores products based on metrics for each principle and aggregates the principle scores to derive a final aggregate score. Through the system it is possible to calculate a green score for each substance based on manufacturing inputs, GHS, and SDS data. DOZN™2.0 is flexible enough to encompass a diverse portfolio of products and it has been verified and validated by a third party to ensure best practices are applied. Based on customer feedback, an upgraded version of the tool, DOZN™3.0, launched in December 2024. Through DOZN™3.0, customers now have access to calculate the green scores of their processes and products. DOZN™3.0 keeps data privacy top of mind - allowing customers to score their processes/products in a safe and secure manner. Come learn how to make your science greener using this free, web-based tool provides users with more data so that they are properly equipped to improve their sustainability.
