Good morning everybody,
My name is …………………. And My name is ……………………
Today, we would like to present on the topic of Producing Glycerolcarbonate by Synthesis of Calcium Oxide from Eggshell as Catalyst. It is known that biodiesel is an alternative energy that has been widely used. However, glycerol, the outcome derived from diesel production process, does not required by the market in recent years. The solution is to convert glycerol to Glycerolcarbonate to add value for various uses. For example, it can be used as an additive in color industry and chemical and plastic field, employed as a base unit of polymer, or used in medical purpose. The process starts from glycerol interacts with Dimethyl Carbonate by using Calcium Oxide as the base catalyst. The higher base amount is found, the higher interaction shows. As calcium is from eggshells, shells, or bones, the catalyst can be easily found with cheap price.
