Governing Standards for Glycerine / Glycerol (C₃H₈O₃) Service
What to Avoid in Glycerine / Glycerol (C₃H₈O₃) Service
- Reduced-bore valves for high-viscosity glycerine - excessive pressure drop
Service Considerations
- Heat glycerine to 60°C to reduce viscosity for pumping - all transfer lines may need heat tracing
- Pharmaceutical grade: ASME BPE compliant valves, Ra ≤0.8 µm internal surface finish
- CIP/SIP compatible design required for pharmaceutical glycerine
- Biodiesel plant crude glycerine: methanol residue may be present - check compatibility
