Synthesis of glycerol carbonate from dimethyl carbonate and glycerol using CaO derived from eggshells

Waste eggshell is proposed as a highly active catalyst for glycerol carbonate production from dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and glycerol. The effect of reaction temperature, reaction time and catalyst loading on the reaction performance were investigated in order to find a suitable operating condition. C...
