Fatty acid methyl ester is a biological chemical, generated by trans-esterification of methanol and fatty acids. The product can be obtained from several biological sources such as rapeseed, palm oil, vegetable oil and soya beans. Rapeseed plant is most usually preferred to extract fatty acid methyl ester owing to good oil content compared to other material sources. Fatty acid methyl ester is a key component in the production of biodiesel, which is a renewable and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional fossil fuels. The rising awareness of climate change and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have led to a growing demand for biodiesel, thereby driving the fatty acid methyl ester market. Further, many countries have implemented strict regulations to curb greenhouse gas emissions and promote the use of clean and sustainable fuels which is also driving the fatty acid methyl ester market growth. But somehow, the high cost of raw materials is expected to hamper the fatty acid methyl ester market growth. The Fatty Acid Methyl Ester Market is predicted to grow at the rate of 5.19% CAGR by 2028.
