The spectra of stars with the B[e] phenomenon are dominated by features that are related to physical conditions of circumstellar material around these objects and are not intrinsic to the stars. Previous studies have shown that emission lines present in the optical spectra of these objects are formed in an equatorial rotating disk. The analysis of high and low resolution spectra, obtained by us with 1.52 telescope in ESO for some Southern Galactic B[e] Stars, can give us information about the structure and velocity of the disk. We will describe the analysis of the unclassified B[e] star Hen 2-90.
