The Origins of Refined Glycerine
Crude glycerine is further processed to produce distilled and refined glycerine. To effectively refine glycerine, remaining organic matter, water, salts, methanol, and odours are eliminated. The refined glycerine obtained is non-toxic, non-allergenic, antiseptic, and functions as a stabilizer, preservative, emollient, and more. Due to these versatile characteristics, it is utilized across several industries.
Based on end-use applications, different quality grades are required. To achieve quality standards ranging from technical grade to pharmaceutical and kosher grades, the purification process is a critical factor in ensuring the desired quality.
The glycerine purification process includes the following steps:
- Neutralisation and drying
- Methanol rectification
- Distillation, rectification
- Ion exchange desalination
