Abstract
A process for separating a one saturated fatty acid from a mixture of saturated fatty acids, which process comprises contacting the mixture at adsorption conditions with an adsorbent comprising a hydrophobic insoluble crosslinked polystyrene polymer, thereby selectively adsorbing the saturated fatty acid for which the adsorbent is selective. Preferably the adsorbed saturated fatty acid will be recovered from the adsorbent by desorption with a desorbent material.
