Crude Glycerin

Dustkill LLC utilizes a specific grade of crude glycerin as a component in some of our dust suppressant formulations. We also package and ship this material direct for use in manufacturing facilities where it can often replace mineral oil.  As a result, we regularly purchase a refined high quality crude glycerin in large bulk quantities.

What exactly is it?

Crude Glycerin is an impure form of Glycerin and is primarily made as a by-product. The reinvention of biodiesel has created much of the crude glycerin as it is primarily a vegetable based by-product from the manufacture of biodiesel. There are also crude glycerin’s deriving from animal and various other waste oils. The crude glycerin that we use has had the typical impurities in it including methanol, water, and salts reduced to an acceptable level.  (Glycerin that has lower levels of glycerin or higher levels of methanol often has little or no value.)
