Glycerol waste used as fuel 'breakthrough'

Please would the community be good enough to give me their opinion of this technology:
Powering Diesel Engines with Glycerine


The bit on their website that I most struggle with is:
"The patented technology makes Glycerine the perfect fuel, burning with higher efficiency than diesel".

Considering their process involves heating the incoming air to 200C how can it be even a match for Diesel's efficiency. However, a student friend says he's seen compelling evidence that the process works... ?

Many thanks.
