The Attractiveness of Biodiesel amidst the Global Downturn
Biodiesel, defined as the mono alkyl ester of long-chain fatty acids derived from vegetable oils, animal fats, or waste cooking oil (WCO), is also referred to as fatty acid methyl ester (FAME). It is produced through transesterification, which is the reaction of a triglyceride with an alcohol to form esters and glycerol, typically in the presence of a catalyst.
