| 13.8.2 | Glycerine [Glycerol] | Product obtained from: — the oleochemical process of (a) oil/fat splitting followed by concentration of sweet waters and refining by distillation (see part B, glossary of processes, entry 20) or ion-exchange process; (b) transesterification of natural oils/fats to obtain fatty acid methyl esters and crude sweet water, followed by concentration of the sweet water to get crude glycerol and refining by distillation or ion-exchange process; — the production of biodiesel (methyl or ethyl esters of fatty acids) by transesterification of oils and fats of unspecified vegetable and animal origin with subsequent refining of the glycerine. Minimum glycerol content: 99 % of dry matter; — saponification of oils/fats of vegetable or animal origin, normally with alkali/alkaline earths, to obtain soaps, followed by refining of crude glycerol and distillation. — May contain up to 50 ppm nickel from hydrogenation | Glycerol if < 99 % on dry matter basis Sodium if > 0,1 % Potassium if > 0,1 % Nickel if > 20 ppm |
