Abstract
This report highlights the recent advances for glycerol valorization to valuable products in liquid phase continuous flow systems using different types of catalysts and processes. The main biobased chemicals obtained from glycerol, such as acrolein, lactic acid, dihydroxyacetone, propanediols, glycerol carbonate, solketal, acetin, alkyl ethers, and oligomers, will be presented.
