Experimental and Simulation Studies for Purification and Etherification of Glycerol from the Biodiesel Industry
In this study, a purification route was applied to crude glycerol and its valorization via etherification was evaluated. Crude glycerol samples were obtained through transesterification reactions of soybean oil with methanol using potassium hydroxide as catalyst. A set of separation steps (acidifica...
