Out of the frying pan and into the fire.

Burning glycerine produces acrolein. For some indications of its 
toxicity, see Feng, Z; Hu W, Hu Y, Tang M (October 2006). "Acrolein is 
a major cigarette-related lung cancer agent: Preferential binding at 
p53 mutational hotspots and inhibition of DNA repair"

National Academy of Sciences

*103* (42): 15404--15409.

Better to compost the glycerine, make soap, or produce biogas.
