Abstract:
The catalytic conversion of glycerol or acetol to alcohols, such as polyhydric alcohols like propylene glycol and simple alcohols like methanol and ethanol, without the addition of external hydrogen, is improved by the use of a transition metal alloy catalyst which, in the case of glycerol, is a nickel alloy catalyst.
