The Impact of Physico-Chemical Processes and Economic Systems on Ecology and Green Technologies

Özet

The growing pressure on natural ecosystems caused by industrialization and economic expansion has made environmental sustainability a global priority. Physico-chemical processes are fundamental to industrial production and energy generation, yet they are also major contributors to environmental pollution. At the same time, economic systems determine how these processes are managed, regulated, and optimized. This article examines the influence of physico-chemical processes and economic structures on ecological balance and the development of green technologies. Particular attention is given to pollution mechanisms, economic drivers of environmental degradation, and the role of green technologies in mitigating ecological damage. The study highlights the importance of integrating scientific innovation with sustainable economic policies to achieve long-term environmental protection and economic stability.
