Degradation of glycerol using hydrothermal process.
Bioresource Technology 2011 October
Sub-critical or supercritical water was utilized for the degradation of glycerol in an environmentally benign reaction. The reaction was carried out in a batch reactor in the temperature range of 473-673 K, pressure of 30 MPa, and reaction time of 20-60 min. The effects of temperature and reaction time were observed. The degradation of glycerol produced acetaldehyde, acrolein, allyl alcohol and un-identified products. The highest yield of acrolein, acetaldehyde and allyl alcohol were 0.20, 7.17, 96.69 mol%, respectively. Glycerol conversion was 99.92 mol%. While acetaldehyde was formed only in sub-critical water and allyl alcohol only in supercritical water, acrolein was formed in both. The kinetics of the global reaction displayed a pseudo-first-order. The activation energy at subcritical water was 39.6 kJ/mol. Based on the results, this method could be an efficient method for glycerol degradation because the high conversion of glycerol was obtained.
