The importance of glycerol hydrogenolysis lies in its ability to produce value-added chemicals. 1,2-Propanediol and 1,3-Propanediol are widely used in the production of polymers, antifreeze, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Utilizing glycerol, a low-value byproduct, for these applications enhances the overall economic viability of biodiesel production and contributes to waste reduction.
