dc.description.abstractRecently, the development of eco-friendly energy resources has been actively sought following the regulations forced by global warming on the use of various fossil fuels. Among the possible sources, biodiesel can be considered an excellent alternative to fossil energy. Many developed countries, including the European Union (EU), are constantly researching to make the best use of this alternative energy. To use biodiesel as an alternative to fossil fuels, a sustainable supply of raw materials must be provided, and for this purpose, it is necessary to collect waste cooking oil discharged from the homes. This study examines the amount and collection methods of waste cooking oil generated in the households of Nigde city, and evaluates the level of consciousness of residents about waste cooking oil in relation to education level and gender. In addition, we propose the establishment of a resource cycle system that would allow waste oil generated in Nigde city to be used for the community by presenting a successful model in South Korea. In this study, the data were collected by face-to-face interviews, resulting in a total of 500 households fully completing the questionnaire in Nigde. The study indicated that waste oil collected from Nigde is not circulated in the community, and residents' awareness of waste oil collection is very low. In particular, respondents with lower levels of education and women showed lower levels of participation.
