• the animal oils are composed of saturated and unsaturated triglycerides like the vegetable oils, but include a wide distribution of fatty acids and some odd-numbered chain fatty acids, unlike the vegetable oils.
• the methyl ester from vegetable oil is mainly made of methyl oleate and methyl linoleate as main components, and exhibits excellent performance in machinability or detergency due to low viscosity (40°C, 1.9 to 6.0 cSt.) and good lubrication when used instead of petroleum-based hydrocarbon lubricating base oil.

• biodiesel also emits the greenhouse gas CO 2 , when viewed from an overall cycle of the process (from production to consumption) it yields very low amounts of CO 2 , and emits relatively low amounts of sulfur oxide (Sox) and particulate matters (PMs).
• Biodiesel made from vegetable resources may be self-produced domestically, which is an advantage for energy security, and may reduce environmental pollution by recycling waste resources, such as waste cooking oil.
• biodiesel has several problems in substituting for conventional gasoline and volatile oils. Although biodiesel has to be mixed in a high ratio to reduce toxic chemicals in exhaust gases from vehicles, it may break down engines due to corrosion, and become denatured in long-term storage.
