Glycerol represents an emerging renewable bio-derived feedstock, which could be used as
a source for producing hydrogen through steam reforming reaction. In this review, the state …

The boom of the biodiesel industry has led to an oversupply of by-product glycerol as a
direct consequence, which has been detrimental to its market value. The chemical reactivity …

Stoichiometric oxidants are always consumed in organic oxidation reactions. For example,
olefins react with peroxy acids to be converted to epoxy, while the oxidant, peroxy acid, is …

The present work deals with the production of glycidol through a new synthetic approach
based on the conversion of 2-chloro-1, 3-propanediol (β-MCH), a by-product in the …

Glycerol is a significant by-product of biodiesel production and a functional molecule with
three hydroxyl groups. Glycerol can be transformed through different catalytic processes …

The previous decade has witnessed a drastic increase of European incentives aimed at
pushing forward the transition from an exclusively petro‐based economy toward a strong …

Glycerol is now used in a large variety of applications because the unique structure, and
renewability feature, and chemical and physical properties, and because it is physiologically …

Recent studies have provided new information on glycerol hydrochlorination in the presence
of carboxylic acids as homogeneous catalysts; particularly interesting is the fact that a part of …

An alternate method for the preparation of glycidol from 3-chloro-1, 2-propanediol using
bipolar membrane electrodialysis (BMED) was investigated. The electrodialysis chamber …

Abstract Dehydrochlorination of 1, 3‐dichloropropanol with alkali is a key step to industrially
produce epichlorohydrin. But there are many side reactions involved in the synthesis …
