I would think (although I don't know for sure) that you could remove water pretty effectively from glycerol by distillation just because their boiling points are quite different (water is 100 °C and glycerol is 290 °C). However, to get it absolutely free of water, you may find that a drying agent or molecular sieves are more effective (but those would only be used after the glycerol is mostly anhydrous already).
