Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to explore how the implementation of circular economy principles can enhance used cooking oil (UCO) management for biofuel production.

Research Methodology: This study adopts a mixed-method approach, combining a literature review with empirical data analysis to examine the involvement of key stakeholders, including households, waste banks, collectors, and biofuel producers.

Results: The findings reveal that UCO management not only reduces environmental pollution through waste minimization but also creates economic opportunities across the supply chain. This study highlights the transformation of UCO from waste into a valuable resource, aligning with the principles of reduction, reuse, recycling, refurbishing, and renewal. Furthermore, policy support, public awareness, and technological innovation are identified as critical factors for effective UCO management.

Conclusions: The implementation of circular economy principles in managing used cooking oil (UCO) for biofuel production provides both environmental and economic benefits. UCO recycling reduces waste and pollution, creates economic opportunities across the supply chain, and contributes to renewable energy production, thereby supporting sustainable development goals.

Limitations: This study focuses on UCO management in Indonesia, limiting its generalizability. It also does not fully address factors such as technological constraints and social acceptance of biofuels.

Contributions: This research emphasizes the role of circular economy practices in transforming UCO into a valuable resource for biofuel production and highlights the importance of policy support, public awareness, and technological innovation.
