In the presence of a low concentration (<O.Ol mol dm-3) of sulfuric acid, ethanol undergoes rapid and selective dehydration to ethene in supercritical water. The kinetics of this reaction are consistent with an acid-catalyzed E2 mechanism.
## Abstract BACKGROUND: Crude glycerol will increase to over 400 million L year^β1^, and the market is likely to become saturated due to the limited demand for glycerol. The main aim of this work is to develop a novel process for the sustainable conversion of glycerol to 1,2βpropanediol (l,2βPD).
