<br>Constantly the biodiesel industry is trying to find some option to produce eco-friendly energy. [Biodiesel](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) prepared from canola, sunflower and jatropha can replace or be combined with standard diesel. During first half of 2000's jatropha [biofuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) made the headlines as a very popular and promising option. It is [prepared](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) from [jatropha curcas](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile), a plant types native to Central America that can be grown on wasteland.<br>
<br>[Jatropha Curcas](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) is a non edible plant that grows in the arid regions. The plant grows extremely quickly and it can yield seeds for about 50 years. The oil obtained from its seeds can be used as a [biofuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd). This can be combined with petroleum diesel. Previously it has actually been utilized twice with algae mix to fuel test flight of commercial airlines.<br>
<br>Another positive technique of jatorpha seeds is that they have 37% oil content and they can be burned as a fuel without fine-tuning them. It is also used for medical purpose. [Supporters](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) of [jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) biodiesel state that the flames of [jatropha curcas](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) oil are smoke totally free and they are successfully evaluated for simple diesel engines.<br>
<br>[Jatropha](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) biodiesel as Renewable Energy Investment has brought in the interest of many companies, which have checked it for [automobile usage](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb). [Jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) biodiesel has actually been roadway checked by Mercedes and 3 of the cars and trucks have covered 18,600 miles by utilizing the [jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) plant [biodiesel](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy).<br>
<br>Since it is due to the fact that of some downsides, the jatropha biodiesel have ruled out as a terrific renewable resource. The biggest issue is that no one understands that what exactly the performance rate of the plant is. Secondly they don't understand how big scale growing may affect the soil quality and the environment as a whole. The [jatropha curcas](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) plant needs 5 times more water per energy than corn and sugarcane. This raises another concern. On the other hand it is to be noted that jatropha can grow on tropical environments with annual rainfall of about 1000 to 1500 mm. A thing to be noted is that jatropha needs appropriate irrigation in the very first year of its plantation which lasts for years.<br>
<br>Recent study says that it holds true that [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) can grow on abject land with little water and poor nutrition. But there is no evidence for the yield to be high. This may be proportional to the quality of the soil. In such a case it might require high quality of land and might need the very same quagmire that is faced by a lot of [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) types.<br>
<br>Jatropha has one main downside. The seeds and leaves of [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) are to humans and animals. This made the Australian government to prohibit the plant in 2006. The government declared the plant as intrusive types, and too dangerous for western Australian farming and the environment here (DAFWQ 2006).<br>
<br>While jatropha has stimulating budding, there are number of research study difficulties stay. The value of [cleansing](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) has to be studied because of the toxicity of the plant. Along side an organized research study of the oil yield have to be undertaken, this is very crucial since of high yield of jatropha would probably needed before [jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) can be contributed significantly to the world. Lastly it is also really important to study about the jatropha species that can make it through in more temperature climate, as [jatropha curcas](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) is very much limited in the tropical environments.<br>
