Each one is the reverse process of the other.

Saponification is the process of producing soap. Refluxing is done in saponification to distill and remove fat droplets in order to complete the process.
Saponification is the reaction between triesters and alcohol.Mineral oil is composed of paraffins and alkanes ,it does'nt contain ester group hence it does not undergo saponification
Saponification
esterification -----> ROH + R'-COOH -------> R'COOR acid with alcohol gives ester transesterification ROH + R'COOR'' -------- > R'COOR change of alkyl group present with R'COO by using a alcohol if you want to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transesterification Esterification is the general name for a chemical reaction in which two reactants (typically an alcohol and an acid) form an ester as the reaction product. H3C-COOH + HO-CH2-CH3 → H3C-COO-CH2-CH3 + H2O Transesterification is the process of exchanging the alkoxy group of an ester compound with another alcohol. These reactions are often catalyzed by the addition of an acid or base.
hdrolysis
saponification is considered to be the reverse process of an esterification reaction due to the fact that esterification is combining an alcohol and a carboxylic acid but a saponification is breaking apart the ester by adding an NaCl molecule (soap) to the chain of carbons.
effect of time on esterification
The simplest answer is probably - "lye soap". In broader terms, the reaction of fats with bases (like NaOH) is called "saponification" and the product is soap. Saponification involves hydrolysis of triglycerides, which are esters of fatty acids, to form the salt (sodium salt if the base is NaOH) of a carboxylates. In addition to soap, such traditional saponification processes produces glycerol.
esterification is the formation of esters between the reaction of alkanol and alkanoic acid
Ethanol is added to hasten saponification.

Esterification Reaction: When an alcohol ( mostly primary) alcohol is treated with carboxylic acid in the presence of H2 SO4 sweet smelling compound is formed which is called ester. The reaction is know as esterification reaction.
Saponification is not applied to pure stearic acid; stearic acid esters are used.
Saponification
Thymol is a good catalyst in saponification. I personally used it during chem prac class :)
margarine has saponification value more then butter
