W
aste cooking oil (WCO) ranks one of the most promising feedstock for biodiesel production, due to the advantages in
environment friendly, energy supply potential, edible oil safety and low recycling cost. Currently, the main roadblock
in the way of developing WCO-based biodiesel in China is the fairly low enthusiasm in formal WCO supply chain. Chinese
government has implemented a number of laws, regulations and incentive policies to improve WCOmanagement and promote
the use of biodiesel. However, many waste cooking oils are still collected by informal collectors and some of them are flowed
back to “table”. Our paper aims to find out the most appropriate incentive object and condition in WCO supply chain. We
conducted a Stackelberg game model among catering enterprise, recycler, and biodiesel production enterprise. The results
showed that catering enterprise was the most effective incentive target inWCO supply chain with a certain economic incentive.
A simulation model was built to seek the best condition to incentive catering enterprise. There was a correlation between policy
incentive effectiveness and catering enterprise’s sensitivity to the collecting price of WCO. When the price sensitive degree is
greater than 3.15, it is the most effective condition for government to implement economic incentive policies. To guarantee
the effective operation of policy incentives, the support of law, policy guidelines and routine supervision should be provided.
