    Increasing population and demand in nearly every sector led humankind to use energy efficiently in every production area. One of the recent “megatrends” worldwide is to supply energy from renewable sources. Rapid emerge of biodiesel industry in the world accompanied with increasing production of industry by-products. As a result of this, some of the industry by-products, such as glycerol, are started to become more available and feasible which is thought to have a promising potential for being a remarkable alternative to high-energy containing feed raw materials. Because of increasing prices of cereals all over the world and search for alternative feed materials by producers has encouraged animal nutrition scientist to determine the effects of this different commercially valued products on performance, metabolism and final product quality for cattle nutrition. Thus the aim of this review is to evaluate the potential of glycerol for feedlot and dairy cattle nutrition.
