Abstract : This article presents the data set of experimental investigation on extraction, characterization, and optimization of ethyl ester yield from sapota seed oil. The seeds were collected, dried and shells were removed. Oil was extracted by mini wooden cold press oil extraction machine and found 26% oil content. The raw oil was characterized, fatty acid contents and physicochemical properties were estimated. The ethyl ester yield was optimized using full factorial experimental design. Three key factors were selected with three levels each. 27 experiments were conducted with three trials of each experiment. The physicochemical properties of the sapota seed oil ethyl ester were determined based on the ASTM standards and data was also presented in this data article.
