Abstract:
A method for producing a fatty acid ester according to the present invention includes mixing a raw fat or oil, a liquid enzyme, and an alcohol having 1 to 8 carbon atoms in the presence of water and an electrolyte. According to the present invention, a fatty acid ester can be efficiently produced via a transesterification reaction without using any expensive buffer solution or amphipathic substance. Furthermore, in the reaction, it is not necessarily required to agitate reactants at a high speed, which makes the present invention adaptive to various production facilities and conditions.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 9 , wherein the raw fat or oil is a modified fat or oil that is obtained by mixing at least one fat or oil selected from the group consisting of vegetable fats and oils, animal fats and oils, fish oils, fats and oils produced by microorganisms, and waste oils thereof with glycerin derived from an enzyme-catalyzed process.
