"Glycerine is expected to be the fastest growing market for antifreeze, by product, in the automotive industry"

Antifreeze base fluids are toxic in nature. This has compelled the manufacturers to switch to less toxic alternatives. Also, glycols used for antifreeze are manufactured from crude oil filtration, which may lead to a higher demand for fossil fuels such as crude oil and can have a negative impact on the environment. Hence, bio-based options such as glycerin are getting recognized in the market for their environment-friendly nature. These bio-based antifreezes are manufactured from materials such as corn, stover, and other oil bearing resources. Manufacturers are venturing into this market with products such as the Susterra brand of DuPont Tate & Lyle Bio Products (U.S.), which is produced using a bio-based glycol named 1, 3-Propanediol (PDO). This glycol is completely manufactured using renewable and bio-based materials and is suitable for passenger cars and other light and heavy-duty vehicles.
