Question
Chapter 4, Problem 56Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The key ideas of green chemistry met in the process discovered by Galen Suppes and coworkers for the conversion of glycerol to propylene glycol have to be observed.
Concept Introduction:
Biodiesel: It is a type of fuel that can be synthesized from vegetable oil, animal fat etc. Triglyceride (oil and fat) produce biodiesel molecules and glycerol. Glycerol is the byproduct formed in this process.
Green chemistry: It is an approach in chemistry that mainly focuses on the processes that eliminate or reduce the use and generation toxic products.
