Due to its availability, low-price, and high degree of reduction, glycerol has become an attractive carbon source for the production of fuels and reduced chemicals. Using the platform we have established from the identification of key pathways mediating fermentative metabolism of glycerol, this work
## Abstract BACKGROUND: The conversion of glycerol to valueβadded derivatives is now critical, owing to the large surplus of glycerol from biodiesel production. The main objective of this work is to develop a novel process for converting solventβfree glycerol to 1,2βpropanediol. RESULTS: Several c
## 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).
