<br>Constantly the biodiesel industry is looking for some option to produce renewable resource. Biodiesel prepared from canola, sunflower and [jatropha curcas](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) can replace or be [combined](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) with traditional diesel. During first half of 2000's jatropha [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) made the headlines as a preferred and promising option. It is prepared from [jatropha curcas](https://www.abnnewswire.net/companies/en/31347/%E0%B8%9A%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%A9%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%97-Mission-NewEnergy-%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B3%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%94.html/4), a plant [species belonging](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) to Central America that can be grown on wasteland.<br>

<br>[Jatropha Curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) is a non edible plant that grows in the [deserts](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048). The plant grows really rapidly and it can yield seeds for about 50 years. The oil got from its seeds can be used as a [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL). This can be combined with petroleum diesel. Previously it has been used twice with algae mix to fuel test flight of business airlines.<br>

<br>Another positive method of jatorpha seeds is that they have 37% oil content and they can be burned as a fuel without refining them. It is also utilized for medical function. Supporters of jatropha [biodiesel](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) say that the flames of jatropha oil are smoke free and they are effectively tested for easy diesel engines.<br>

<br>Jatropha biodiesel as Renewable Energy Investment has drawn in the interest of [numerous](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) business, which have actually [checked](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) it for automobile use. [jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) [biodiesel](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) has actually been roadway evaluated by Mercedes and three of the automobiles have actually covered 18,600 miles by utilizing the jatropha plant biodiesel.<br>

<br>Since it is since of some drawbacks, the jatropha [biodiesel](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) have not considered as a fantastic renewable resource. The greatest problem is that no one understands that just what the productivity rate of the plant is. Secondly they do not know how big scale growing might affect the soil quality and the environment as a whole. The jatropha 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](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) can grow on tropical climates with yearly rainfall of about 1000 to 1500 mm. A thing to be kept in mind is that [jatropha](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) needs appropriate irrigation in the first year of its which lasts for years.<br>

<br>Recent study states that it holds true that jatropha 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 may require the very same quagmire that is dealt with by many [biofuel](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) 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 intrusive species, and too risky for western Australian farming and the [environment](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) here (DAFWQ 2006).<br>

<br>While [jatropha curcas](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) has stimulating budding, there are variety of research study difficulties stay. The importance of cleansing has to be studied since of the toxicity of the plant. Along side a systematic research study of the oil yield have to be undertaken, this is really important due to the fact that of high yield of jatropha would most likely required before [jatropha](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) can be contributed considerably to the world. Lastly it is also extremely essential to study about the jatropha types that can endure in more temperature level climate, as [jatropha](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) is quite restricted in the tropical climates.<br>
