Fatty Acid Esters (FAEs) are a type of Ester that result from the combination of a Fatty acid with an Alcohol. Biodiesels are typically Fatty Acid Esters made by the Transesterification of Vegetable Fats and Oils. In this Process the Glycerol component is replaced with a different Alcohol. The most commonly used Alcohol is Methanol, producing Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME). When Ethanol is used Fatty Acid Ethyl Esters (FAEE) are created. Other Alcohols used for the production of Biodiesel include Butanol and Isopropanol.
