Mono Ethylene glycol or MEG refers as the organic compound which is syrupy liquid, odorless, colorless, with a sweet taste. It is basically produced from the ethylene via ethylene oxide, which is hydrated through the thermal or catalytic process. It is utilized as the antifreeze for different uses like preserving biological tissues & organs or as de-icing fluids. It is an important raw material for the number of industrial applications such as manufacturing namely polyethylene terephthalate and manufacturing of polyester fiber, fabrics and among others.
