ABSTRACT:
A method for esterification of free fatty acids in triglycerides, with C1-C8aliphatic alcohols. The method uses an acidic ion exchange resin as a catalyst. The catalyst is contacted with a reaction mixture containing a triglyceride having at least 1% free fatty acids and a C1-C8aliphatic alcohol under conditions suitable for esterification.
