Wöhler Prize for Sustainable Chemistry
The Wöhler Prize for Sustainable Chemistry is a prize from the Society of German Chemists (GDCh) for sustainable chemistry . It has been awarded as the Wöhler Prize for resource-saving processes since 1998 and was given its current name in 2012. The prize is named after Friedrich Wöhler and is endowed with 7,500 euros.
There was also a Wöhler Prize from the Chemical Society of the GDR, which was awarded from 1960 to 1991. The GDCh's Wöhler Prize builds on this.
