Thermal treatment improves a process of crude glycerol valorization for the production of a heterologous enzyme by Yarrowia lipolytica [PDF]
Valorization of crude glycerol requires a potent bifunctional biocatalyst, such as Yarrowia lipolytica, capable of high-density growth on this substrate, and having i.a. high propensity for heterologous protein synthesis.

Efficient Screening of Bi–Metallic Electrocatalysts for Glycerol Valorization
Abstract Glycerol is a byproduct of biodiesel production and, as such, it is of limited economic value. By means of electrooxidation, glycerol can be used as a feedstock for scalable hydrogen production, in addition to conversion to value-added products.
