摘要

The current work demonstrates the fabrication of Sodium Aluminate (NaAlO2) catalyst for the environmentally friendly production of glycerol carbonate (GLC) from diethyl carbonate (DEC) and glycerol Spray drying was used to prepare the catalyst, and the results were also compared to the catalyst, prepared by sonication method. To increase the porosity and surface area of the catalysts, glycerol and pluronic F127 were used as a catalyst template. A range of operational parameters, such as catalyst reusability, temperature, time, glycerol to DEC ratio, and catalyst concentration, were also examined etc. Reaction gives high conversion of glycerol, i.e. 92%, with product (GLC) selectivity of 100% at moderate reaction conditions.
