The activity generating the emissions is esterification of soybean oil. The Reference Product is fatty acid methyl ester. "fatty acid methyl ester" (FAME) is an organic substance. It is produced from transesterification of vegetable oils. In the database, it is produced from the esterification of palm oil, soybean oil and rape oil (or other sources of oils, users are prompted to inspect the respective regional supply chains of this product). It can be used in the following applications: as detergent and as biodiesel. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.12/cutoff/dataset/8144/documentation
