Further treatments for glycerol by-products generally
involve neutralization and recycling to remove the excess
methanol,, The catalyst and soap.21 One popular option is to
use potassium hydroxide as the reaction catalyst and
phosphoric acid for. Neutralization so that the potassium
phosphate salt formed can be used as fertilizer. Following
acidulation and separation. Of the free, fatty acidsThe methanol
in the glycerol can be removed by evaporation using a vacuum
flash process. Depending on the type of separation. Process
used the final, glycerol purity is about 80 - 95%.22 Such crude
glycerol is typically sold to industrial glycerol. Refiners at a low
cost.14 16, Most (97%) of the glycerol used today is a highly
refined product (97% purity) - the glycerol. Refining process
.Can take the purity up to 99.5% to 99.7% using vacuum
distillation or ion exchange, processes.23 However these
processes. Are expensive and small biodiesel plants usually
discard the glycerol by-product as waste.
