This work focuses on the production of biodiesel from waste soybean oil via NaOH catalyzed transesterification reaction. Many properties of the waste soybean oil and the produced biodiesel have been measured. The density, kinematic viscosity, cloud point and flash point of the waste soybean oil were found to be higher than those of the produced biodiesel. The measured cetane number of the produced biodiesel is greater than that of the waste soybean oil; hence, transesterification process improves the combustibility of the waste soybean oil
