| Abstract: | This study focuses on optimizing biodiesel production from Mango Seed Oil (MSO) extracted from Mangifera indica seeds using the transesterification reaction. Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize the process parameters, including catalyst type, concentration, alcohol to oil ratio, temperature, and reaction time. The physicochemical properties of the biodiesel were characterized and compared with international standards. The study highlights the viability of Mango Seed Oil as a promising feedstock for sustainable biodiesel production, contributing to the advancement of the renewable energy sector. the biodiesel obtained from mango seed oil by transesterification process was also found to be predominantly biodiesel with a good yield of 95 % |
