Chicken skin and its fat are sources of solid waste that are usually not utilized and add solidpollution. This research work deals with the production of useful biodiesel from utilizing the wastechicken (fat and its skins). Waste chicken fat and its skins (sourced from local shops of Hyderabad,Sindh, Pakistan) were extracted and trans-estrification was made. The product oftrans-estrificationwasfatty acid methyl esters (FAME) commonly known as biodiesel. Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH)was used as catalyst and glycerol was obtained as a by-product. The FAME produced was testedfor six parameters namely calorific value, cloud point, pour point, flash point, density and viscositywhen compared to ASTM E2515-11 standard values. The results of this experiment showed thatthe calorific value, cloud point, pour point, flash point, density and viscosity values of FAMEproduced from chicken skin and its fat were close to that of petroleum derived diesel
