## Abstract Raw glycerol, the main by‐product of the bio‐diesel production process, was converted to 1,3‐propanediol by __Clostridium butyricum__ F2b. In batch cultures, 47.1 g dm^−3^ of 1,3‐propanediol were produced. Continuous cultures were conducted at a constant dilution rate (= 0.04 h^−1^) and

## Abstract Aim of the present study was to assess and evaluate the impact of various kinds of impurities of biodiesel‐derived raw glycerol feedstock, upon microbial growth and 1,3‐propanediol (1,3‐PDO) production by __Clostridium butyricum__. Preliminary trials in 200‐mL anaerobic bottles revealed
## Abstract Raw glycerol, produced in significant quantities during several industrial processes, could be further considered as a potential substrate for microbial conversions. In the present report, modelling approaches are used in order to quantify the kinetic behavior of microorganisms capable
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** The objective of the present work is to report an efficient pre‐treatment process for sunflower oil biodiesel raw glycerol (SOB‐RG) and its fermentation to 1,3‐propanediol. **RESULTS:** The growth inhibition percentages of __Clostridium butyricum__ DSM 5431 on grade A (
