Abstract

This research article is mainly focused on the production of biodiesel from the waste chicken fats/oils, and waste cooking oil (WCO). The purified chicken fats/oils and waste cooking oils were subjected to transesterification under acidic and basic conditions using methanol and ethanol. The biodiesel was purified by column chromatography (CC) and characterized by different parameters that meet the specifications of American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM). The significant yields of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) and fatty acid ethyl ester (FAEE) were obtained from all samples. The yields of the oily content and biodiesel from different samples showed that chicken fats/oil and waste cooking oil are commercially more important.
