Production of Fuel Additive Solketal via Catalytic Conversion of Biodiesel-Derived Glycerol

The increase in the synthesis of biodiesel has also contributed to a surplus of crude glycerol, which is a significant bottleneck throughout the supply chain of biodiesel and has produced new problems for its sustainable usage. While there is a broad variety of possible uses of crude glycerol, it is...
