waste oils with high FFAs have not been a viable feedstock option. equivalent MeOH, 35°C/95°F, 2% water and 20 to 24 hours reaction time. The significant reduction of harsh chemicals and by-products enhances safety for both personnel and the environment. free fatty acids (FFA). FFA—i.e., Source: Novozymes.
