A process for producing glycols from a carbohydrate source using a catalyst system, and which process can be carried out continuously in a reactor, and in which process a catalyst material is recovered from the reactor effluent. The reactor effluent is subjected to separation to obtain some valuable glycols, and one or more of the bottom streams comprising heavy polyols and some catalyst material containing one or more tungsten compounds is subjected to burning, and the burner is part of a boiler that can generate steam. Such steam may be used in the separation of one or more of the desired compounds.
