Ramirez-Caballero Alvaro Ramirez-Garcia Ingeniería olyglycerol Soap effect Sodium effect Polymerization of crude glycerol Crude glycerol (CG) is a low-cost biodiesel industry co-product in a ratio of 1:10 with the main product. The large quantities of CG produced affect the biodiesel and glycerol markets. Consequently, the exploration of new applications for CG becomes crucial. As the composition of CG differs significantly from that of purified glycerol, this work was focused on studying the effect of CG impurities on its polymerization, as this process, at the same reaction conditions established for the polymerization of purified glycerol, did not result in polymeric products. To identify the reason for this result, the CG was fully characterized to identify its composition. Hence, an experimental design using simulated-CG was performed to study the effect of the most abundant impurities in the CG on the polymerization and the impurities that would persist with such reaction conditions, such as soap and sodium. The response variable for the experimental design was the hydroxyl number of the reaction products. FT-IR spectroscopy was used to analyze differences among the reaction products obtained from different treatments. The presence of soap was identified as primary inhibitory factor and the bottleneck in the formation of polyglycerol via polymerization of CG. Molecular weights of the polymerization reaction products were determined and analyzed as per the MALDI-TOF technique. The identification of the effect of impurities of CG polymerization suggests new routes for using it in the production of high value-added chemicals. 2019 artículo científico 0122-5383 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46570742008 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/465/46570742008/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/465/46570742008/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/465/46570742008/46570742008.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/465/46570742008/movil 10.29047/01225383.122 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=465 CT&F Ciencia, Tecnología y Futuro application/pdf ECOPETROL S.A.
