The analysis demonstrates increased biodiesel yield in waste cooking oil by interesterification, suggesting curcumin is an efficient biocatalyst.

The interesterification process achieved a biodiesel yield of 91.74% using curcumin as a biocatalyst.
Optimal conditions included 2.5% curcumin concentration and a reaction time of 105 minutes at 60°C.
GC-MS analysis identified hexadecanoic acid as the primary methyl ester produced, affirming the process's effectiveness.
These findings highlight the potential of using waste cooking oil in sustainable biodiesel production.

Daryono et al. (2025) studied this question.
