Microwave-assisted Glycerol Conversion into Valuable Chemicals
Abstract
This chapter describes the effectiveness of microwave irradiation as a new synthetic technique for the conversion of glycerol into valuable chemicals. In particular, microwave irradiation quickly activates the reactants, favouring their interaction with the catalysts and leading to the conversion of glycerol for the formation of several important chemicals.
