Abstract:Glycerol carbonate prepared by transesterification is a value-added glycerol derivative that can be used as a solvent, electrolyte, and polymer monomer. Due to the high boiling points of glycerol and glycerol carbonate, their separation by distillation is energy-intensive. To evaluate the feasibility of extractive separation of glycerol carbonate with glycerol, ethyl acetate and 2butanone + benzene mixture were selected as the extractants, and the corresponding liquid−liquid equilibrium data were measured at 3… Show more
