This paper aims at the assessment of the methods of production of biodiesel from different types of used cooking oil. Researches into the productive chain of this type of biofuel were performed in Brazil while several scientific studies approaching processes of pretreatment and transesterification of waste cooking oil were analyzed with their possible variations: alkaline catalysis, acid ...
Kemp reported the distribution of biodiesel production costs as shown in Figure 4. Oil feedstock cost is the major cost of biodiesel production accounting over 70 % of the total costs. Hence, if the waste vegetable oil is used as biodiesel feedstock, the economics of biodiesel can be significantly improved. Moreover, the use of waste cooking ...

results in lower yields of biodiesel due to soap production during the reaction. High water content in the oil: Water impedes the biodiesel reaction resulting in only partial conversion of the oil to biodiesel. The biodiesel process used at RIT was tailored for the residential cooking oil which tends to be high in water content.

Animal fats are attractive feedstocks for biodiesel because their cost is substantially lower than the cost of vegetable oil. This is partly because the market for animal fat is much more limited than the market for vegetable oil, since much of the animal fat produced in the U.S. is not considered edible by humans.
