| ABSTRACT | Biodiesel is made from vegetable oil produced from various plant materials into fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) by trans-esterification of the triglycerides contained in the vegetable oils. This may be an excellent replacement for non-carbon neutral diesel fuel from petroleum. The combustion of diesel oil produces carbon dioxide which may be considered to be one of the causes of global warming and is certainly considered hazardous to health. Plant oils are produced by photosynthesis in which carbon dioxide is recovered from the atmospheric. Carbon dioxide from the combustion of biodiesel is reabsorbed by plants through photosynthesis, this offset of carbon dioxide consumption by plant material makes this source of fuel ‘carbon neutral’. As a result, determination of fatty acid methyl esters and triglycerides in fuel is now of increasing interest. In Japan, the measurement method for determination of fatty acid methyl esters and triglycerides was promulgated in Official Gazette No.78 of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, issued 22nd of March, 2007. JASCO has determined the fatty acid methyl esters and triglycerides content in diesel fuel mixed with biodiesel in accordance with this standard method.
