Used Cooking Oil Market Size & Trends

The global used cooking oil market size was estimated at USD 7.49 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.0% from 2024 to 2030. One of the primary drivers of the used cooking oil (UCO) industry is the global shift towards renewable energy sources. Governments worldwide are implementing regulations and providing incentives to promote the recycling of used cooking oil for biodiesel production. Biodiesel, as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels, significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions and supports renewable energy initiatives. This trend is particularly prominent in regions like Europe and North America, where stringent environmental regulations are in place to encourage the use of biodiesel.

The foodservice industry also plays a crucial role in driving the demand for used cooking oil. The increasing number of restaurants, cafes, and food stalls contributes to a higher volume of waste cooking oil available for recycling. As consumer preferences shift toward dining out and trying diverse cuisines, the foodservice sector's expansion is expected to further increase the availability of used cooking oil. In addition, many establishments are adopting sustainable practices by partnering with waste management companies to recycle their used cooking oil, thus creating a steady supply for biodiesel producers.

Technological advancements in waste recycling processes have also bolstered market growth. Innovations that enhance the efficiency of converting used cooking oil into high-quality biodiesel and other products have made it more appealing for manufacturers. These developments not only improve product quality but also reduce production costs, making UCO a more competitive raw material compared to virgin vegetable oils.

Furthermore, there is a growing awareness regarding the benefits of using used cooking oil beyond biodiesel production. Used cooking oil is increasingly being utilized in various applications such as animal feed, oleo chemicals, and even cosmetics. This diversification of applications helps to stabilize demand across different sectors, further solidifying the market's growth potential.

A major challenge in the used cooking oil industry is supply chain disruptions. The logistics involved in collecting, transporting, and processing used cooking oil can be complicated. Issues such as transportation delays, border closures, and inadequate infrastructure for collection can hinder the efficient flow of UCO from collection points to processing facilities. These disruptions can lead to increased costs and reduced availability of used cooking oil in the market.

Quality control is also a significant concern in the used cooking oil industry. The quality of used cooking oil can vary greatly depending on its source and previous usage. High levels of impurities, such as free fatty acids and water, must be removed before the oil can be effectively processed into biodiesel or other products. If not adequately addressed, these impurities can lead to lower yields in biodiesel production and may even render the oil unsuitable for certain applications, such as animal feed.

"Healthcare Companion Robots Market Growth & Trends

The global healthcare companion robots market size is estimated to reach USD 5.48 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 17.62% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Companion robots are created with a purpose of offering a companionship to humans. These robots assist people especially elderly population in their daily activities and helps to improve their lives.

With increasing geriatric population and rising prevalence of diseases such as Alzheimer’s; dementia, etc., the demand of companion robots is likely to increase over a forecast period. Various robots are being developed which help people suffering from such disorders to live normal life. For instance, Ryan, a companion robot outfitted with artificial intelligence technology is designed to assist the aging population, specifically those struggling with Alzheimer’s. Also, it is equipped with cognitive games to keep the brain active and helps recognize who it interacts with and carry on conversations. In addition, the increasing incidences of depression is fueling market growth. Furthermore, with the outbreak of COVID-19, the prevalence of loneliness raised, which positively impacted the demand for companion robot. Paro, a companion robot approved by the FDA as an insured cost for patients is used to assist people with depression, anxiety, and other conditions. These robo-seals are provided in free to licensed nursing homes and in around 28 nursing homes in Washington State have started using them since last year.

In addition, various initiatives undertaken by market players to provide innovative solutions is anticipated to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period. For instance, in March 2022, Intuition Robotics launched ElliQ, a digital care companion. It is designed to help older adults to be more physically active and socially engaged and enable them to have happier, more independent lives. Furthermore, integration of advanced technologies to improve the healthcare outcome is expected to boost the market in upcoming years.
