Abstract
The biotechnological transformation of vegetable oils and animal fats has been successfully developed up to an industrial scale in recent years. However, biotechnology is still a niche technology in the oleochemical industry, which classically relies on chemical transformation processes. Nevertheless, the impact of biotechnology is rising, with an increasing number of biotech‐based products, especially in the area of lipid‐derived specialties, entering the market. In this review we give a summary of the industrially relevant processes in the field of lipid biotechnology.
