Therefore, it is imperative to develop new applications of glycerol to value-added chemicals and biofuels.<!--more--><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #003300\">\u00a0 Compared with biological conversion with typical drawbacks (e.g., difficult control of production conditions, complex separation steps, and low productive efficiency), hydrothermal process carried out in subcritical water or supercritical water is an effective and attractive thermochemical method for the conversion of biomass. A variety of high value products such as acrolein, acrylic acid, lactic acid and hydrogen etc. are obtained from hydrothermal conversion of glycerol.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #003300\">\u00a0 The work entitled \u201cHydrothermal conversion of glycerol to chemicals and hydrogen: review and perspective\u201d authored by PhD Student Mr. Yunduo Long and his supervisor Prof. Zhen Fangh was published on-line in\u00a0<strong><em>Biofuels Bioproducts &amp; Biorefining-Biofpr\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>(<a href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/bbb.1345\/abstract\"><span style=\"color: #003300\">http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/bbb.1345\/abstract<\/span><\/a>). Based on their previous achievements, Mr. Long and Prof. Fang systematically introduced hydrothermal conversion of glycerol to chemicals and biofuel, and elucidated the reaction mechanisms under different conditions in this review paper. In addition, new ways and future perspective of hydrothermal processing of glycerol for industrial applications were discussed and proposed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #003300\"><a href=\"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/clip_image0021.gif\"><span style=\"color: #003300\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/clip_image0021.gif\" width=\"554\" height=\"285\" \/><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #003300\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #003300\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 At present, due to the rapid development of the globa [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2049"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2049"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2049\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2049"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2049"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/woodrefinery.com\/zhenfang\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2049"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
