Abstract
A method for processing glyceride fats and oils which comprises the steps of subjecting a mixture of a glyceride fat or oil and a monohydric alcohol fatty acid ester to an enzymatic ester interchange reaction; distilling the reaction mixture of the ester interchange reaction to separate a distillate from a processed glyceride fat or oil to recover the latter; subjecting the distillate to an esterification reaction to lower its acid value; and recycling the distillate for use as a starting material for the ester interchange reaction.
