Abstract

Vegetable oils are widely used in human consumption as food, with increasing productivity. As they are sustainable raw materials, they are suitable substitutes for fossil-derived raw materials and have great potential for producing high-value bioproducts, contributing to sustainability, the economy, and environmental issues. This article explores multiple applications of vegetable oils, highlighting residual oil included in making soaps, biofuels, animal feed, green solvents, bioasphalt, and asphalt binders. It also addresses the treatment of these vegetable oils with enzymes and the methods for converting soybean oil into biofuels, highlighting their properties that favor efficiency and the reduction of pollutant gas emissions. In addition, the extraction and purification processes that make obtaining ingredients with more excellent market value possible are discussed.
