Due to its eco-friendly and renewable characteristics, biodiesel has become a promising alternative to energy sources. However, the issue associated with traditional biodiesel production is the expensive production cost on the industrial scale, which is primarily caused by raw materials. Thus, the catalyst plays a crucial role with the objective to speed up the overall biodiesel production rate and lower the production cost. Recently, numerous studies on different kinds of catalysts used in the production of biodiesel have been carried out. Therefore, this chapter offers a detailed overview of biodiesel production by analyzing the latest trends that utilize biomass waste-derived catalysts.
