<br>Constantly the [biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) industry is searching for some option to produce renewable resource. Biodiesel prepared from canola, sunflower and jatropha can change or be combined with [traditional diesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd). During first half of 2000's [jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) [biofuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) made the headlines as an incredibly popular and appealing option. It is prepared from [jatropha curcas](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy), a plant species belonging to Central [America](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) that can be grown on wasteland.<br>
<br>[Jatropha Curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) is a non edible plant that grows in the dry areas. The plant grows extremely rapidly and it can [yield seeds](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) for about 50 years. The oil got from its seeds can be utilized as a [biofuel](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm). This can be combined with petroleum diesel. Previously it has actually been used twice with algae combination to fuel test flight of industrial airline companies.<br>
<br>Another positive approach of jatorpha seeds is that they have 37% oil content and they can be burned as a fuel without improving them. It is also utilized for medical function. Supporters of [jatropha](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) biodiesel say that the flames of jatropha oil are smoke totally free and they are successfully checked for easy diesel motor.<br>
<br>Jatropha [biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) as Renewable Energy Investment has drawn in the interest of numerous business, which have actually evaluated it for automotive use. [Jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) [biodiesel](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) has been road evaluated by Mercedes and three of the automobiles have covered 18,600 miles by using the jatropha plant [biodiesel](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb).<br>
<br>Since it is due to the fact that of some disadvantages, the [jatropha](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) [biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) have actually not thought about as a terrific renewable resource. The most significant problem is that no one knows that exactly what the performance rate of the plant is. Secondly they do not know how big scale cultivation might impact the soil quality and the environment as a whole. The [jatropha curcas](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) plant needs 5 times more water per energy than corn and sugarcane. This raises another concern. On the other hand it is to be kept in mind that jatropha can grow on tropical climates with yearly rains of about 1000 to 1500 mm. A thing to be noted is that jatropha requires proper watering in the very first year of its plantation which lasts for years.<br>
<br>Recent survey says that it is real that [jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) can grow on degraded land with little water and bad nutrition. But there is no evidence for the yield to be high. This might be proportional to the quality of the soil. In such a case it may need high quality of land and might require the exact same quagmire that is faced by the majority of [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) types.<br>
<br>Jatropha has one primary disadvantage. The seeds and leaves of jatropha are poisonous to human beings and animals. This made the Australian federal government to ban the plant in 2006. The government declared the plant as invasive types, and too risky for western Australian farming and the environment here (DAFWQ 2006).<br>
<br>While [jatropha curcas](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) has stimulating budding, there are variety of research challenges remain. The value of detoxification needs to be studied because of the toxicity of the plant. Along side an organized study of the oil yield need to be carried out, this is extremely important since of high yield of jatropha would most likely required before jatropha can be contributed significantly to the world. Lastly it is likewise to study about the jatropha types that can make it through in more temperature climate, as [jatropha curcas](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) is quite limited in the tropical climates.<br>
