Palm oil is known for its unique composition, containing a balanced ratio of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, which gives it desirable functional and sensory properties. It is rich in vitamin E tocotrienols and carotenoids, which are natural antioxidants. Palm fruit oil, a widely used vegetable oil, is obtained from the mesocarp of the palm fruit.It is mainly composed of palmitic acid and also unsaturated fatty acids such oleic and linoleic acid.Palm oil undergoes trans-esterification with methanol to form methyl ester of palm oil, also known as palm oil diesel (POD). POD is a promising candidate as a diesel substitute
