Potential of Used Cooking Oil as Feedstock

Used cooking oil is a waste oil generated from vegetable oil after frying and can be easily sourced from domestic, restaurant outlet and food processing industries within the Durban metropolis.

The most common feedstocks used for biodiesel production are vegetable oils, such as canola oil, sunflower oil, soybean and palm oil; waste cooking oils; and animal fats [2] [3][4].

Can vegetable oils be used as lipid feedstock for biodiesel production?
This paper focuses on vegetable oils as lipid feedstock. The vegetable oils used as lipid feedstock for biodiesel production highly depend on regional climate that is rapeseed oil in European countries and Canada, soybean oil in United States, and palm oil in tropical countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia.
How can biodiesel prices be maintained in South Africa?
The biodiesel economy has been shown to be most sensitive to feedstock prices as well as the plant scale, thus, local vegetable oil production would help in maintaining prices through government interventions. South Africa¡¯s biofuels industry is sitting at only about 2.5% of the market share of liquid fuels.
What is the cheapest biodiesel feedstock?
Palm oil remains the cheapest biodiesel feedstock available, costing about 0.55 USD/L, followed by soybean and rapeseed oil at 0.69 and 0.77 USD/L . One ton of jatropha oil is extracted from 4.17 tons of seed and costs 0.42 USD per liter, including feedstock costs and crushing charges.
Where is biodiesel made?
Asia is the world¡¯s largest producer of edible oils, particularly palm oil, and has a well developed industry, primarily in Malaysia and Indonesia. The same cannot be said when it comes to biodiesel which is still in its infancy. A large proportion of edible oils are destined to the export market, excluding China which is a major importer.
Which crop has the best biodiesel production?
Table 7.2 summarises typical values of oil productivity (l/ha) for the most frequently mentioned crops. It can be seen that palm oil is by far the feedstock with the best biodiesel productivity; contrary, soybeans for biodiesel production is relatively very low.
How biodiesel is made in South Africa?
After the oil is collected from various outlets, it undergoes a refining process, then it is graded and sold to various companies where the following products are made: Due to Carbon Footprint awareness, Biodiesel plants have sprung up all over South Africa. The advantages of biodiesel are as follows:
