glycerol from soap lye crude can be separated from at least 80% of the dissolved salts. The concentration o~ glycerol in the effluent is approximately 15%, and losses are in the range of 2 to 4% glycerol. This product from the ion-exclusion process, when fur ther purified by ion-exchange and concentrated, compares favorably with the product from other methods of purification. The technique affords a means for economies in regeneration costs connected with ionexchange purification in that the bulk of the ionic material can be removed by this method and the remainder by conventional ion exchange.
