Summary: | The present article analyzes different strategies for collecting Waste Cooking Oil (WCO] to produce biodiesel in Santiago de Cali. The quantitative and qualitative analysis of the models found in the literature highlighted the main characteristics for developing a WCO collection model considering the local parameters. Initial results showed that there is not enough WCO to satisfy the demand. However, an improved scenario is proposed following a supply point's densification strategy. The improved scenario not only fulfills the plant's installed capacity but also achieved WCO collection cost of 695.5 COP per gallon. 304 gallons of biodiesel could be produced with the collected WCO achieving a potential reduction of 230.81 kg of C[O.sub.2] if this biodiesel is used to replace the same amount of diesel in the market, due to the difference between the C[O.sub.2] emissions factor of diesel [kg C[O.sub.2]/diesel gal] and biodiesel [kg C[O.sub.2]/biodiesel gal]. KEYWORDS: Biomass, biodiesel, MILP, sustainable development En el presente articulo se analizaron diferentes estrategias para la recoleccion de Aceite de Cocina Usado (ACU] con el fin de utilizarlo como materia prima para la produccion de biodiesel en Santiago de Cali. El analisis cuantitativo y cualitativo de los modelos encontrados en la literatura arrojo las principales caracteristicas a tener en cuenta en la construccion y parametrizacion de un modelo de recoleccion de AUC, para este estudio de caso. Los resultados iniciales mostraron que no existen suficiente ACU para satisfacer la demanda. Sin embargo, se propone un escenario mejorado considerando una estrategia para la densificacion del radio de suministro, logrando no solo la satisfaccion de la capacidad instalada sino tambien costos de recoleccion de 695,5 COP por galon de AUC. Una produccion de 304 galones de biodiesel puede lograrse con el AUC recolectado junto con una reduccion potencial de 230,81 kg de C[O.sub.2] si este biodiesel es usado para reemplazar la misma cantidad de diesel en el mercado.
