Abstract: Disclosed is a method of preparing fatty acid alkyl ester sulfonate using coffee oil. The fatty acid alkyl ester sulfonate prepared using the coffee-derived oil has superior cleaning capacity compared to commercially available alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS). In addition, a detergent composition containing fatty acid alkyl ester sulfonate prepared using coffee-derived oil exhibits cleaning capacity equal to or higher than that of a detergent containing fatty acid alkyl ester sulfonate prepared using palm oil and can be used as an alternative to palm oil.
