Abstract
This invention relates to a process for the preparation of glycerol carbonate from the reaction of glycerol and a dialkylcarbonate, for example dimethyl carbonate, or a cyclic alkylene carbonate. More specifically, the invention relates to a process where the synthesis of glycerol carbonate is conducted in the presence of a homogeneous transesterification catalyst and involves the partial reaction of a glycerol reactant stream and a dialkyl carbonate or cyclic alkylene carbonate reactant stream and an intermediate step of alcohol by-product separation before further reaction in order to improve glycerol conversion and glycerol carbonate selectivity and yield.
