A novel low temperature, low pressure, catalytic conversion of glycerol into
first hydroxyacetone, then hydrogenation into propylene glycol. The process is efficient, produces little to no waste, and ultimately generates a non-toxic chemical derived from a natural material.


Senergy Chemical is the global license holder to this technology, which was
developed by researchers PhD Suppes and PhD Sutterlin at the University of Missouri to convert glycerol into propylene glycol.
