Continuous Synthesis of a Green Fuel Additive Mixture with Highest Quantities of Solketalacetin and Solketal and Lowest Amount of Diacetin from Biodiesel-Derived Glycerol

This work presents a continuous, easy-to-scale-up system for glycerol conversion to a valuable fuel additive mixture such as solketalacetin ((2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl acetate), solketal and minimum amount of diacetin with no byproducts. A two-stage reaction was conducted to synthesize t...
