Beurre blanc is a hot emulsified butter sauce with a reduction of vinegar and/or white wine and grey shallots. Butter is blended off the heat to prevent separation.

Hollondaise sauce is an emulsion of egg yolk, liquid butter, water and lemon juice whisked together over a low heat in a double boiler. Add salt and pepper for seasoning

They are both loosely based on egg yolks and oil, but hollandaise is a classic French sauce using clarified butter instead of, say, a vegetable oil. They both contain an acid, usually lemon juice, but the main difference in both is the oil used and hollandaise contains either cayenne pepper or Tabasco, and hollandaise is cooked over a double boiler. Mayonnaise is not.

Beurre blanc is a hot emulsified butter sauce. It is made with butter, shallots, and vinegar or white wine. It differs from hollandaise sauce because it is not considered a compound sauce.
