<br>The non-renewability, ecological concerns and health hazards related to the fossil fuels has caused exploration of alternative sources of energy to substitute the traditional ones. An appealing innovation, still in its infancy, that could reveal us the method to the future ahead is Biodiesels. [Biodiesels](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) are diesel fuels originated from grease or animal-fat that might be utilized to run [diesel motors](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US). [Vegetables](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) oils like sunflower, rape seed, palm oil, soya bean, [jatropha curcas](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) and so on can be subjected to oil processing to produce biodiesels. It consists of no petroleum but can be mixed with petroleum diesel for use or might be in its pure type.<br>
<br>Developed countries specifically United States and European Countries have already made considerable advances in the Biodiesel Technology. [Biodiesel](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) have found its use throughout markets and verticals and might emerge as an ideal cleaner and more affordable alternative to gas, diesel and fossil fuels. India has actually likewise begun exploring the opportunities to produce and utilize bio-diesel. A number of plants for [biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) transesterification are already operating in the country where veggie oils are reacted with alcohols (ethanol or methanol usually) to produce bio-diesel.<br>
<br>The primary factor for the increasing demand for biodiesels is the fact that biodiesels are sustainable and carbon-neutral, thus having no net influence on the environment. Besides, bio-diesel operates in compression engines much like regular petroleum diesel and for this reason can be used with little or no engine modifications. Biodiesel do not require any different infrastructure for its storage and can be saved just like the petroleum based fuels.<br>
<br>Considering the growing energy need in the country, increasing petroleum prices and the ecological threats of nonrenewable fuel sources, the Indian Government has actually used up initiatives to develop the Bio Diesel Technology in India and established more oil processing units. The Government announced its 'National [Biofuel](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) Policy' on 12 September 2008 which aims to fulfill 20% of India's diesel demand with bio-fuels in the coming years.<br>
<br>Globally, edible vegetable oils like sunflower, soya bean, rape seed, palm oil are utilized as the pre-dominant raw materials for oil processing and [biodiesel](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) [production](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) however in India the maximum potential to [produce biodiesels](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) is from [Jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) oil - a non-edible one produced from the seeds of the [Jatropha curcas](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited). The biggest advantage of using [jatropha curcas](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) as a basic material is that this plant can be grown in big amounts in wastelands all across [India requiring](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) really little water in contrast to other cash crops. Once grown, the plant has a beneficial lifespan of a number of decades. The [jatropha curcas](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) seeds contain 40% oil and are thought about to be an outstanding source of bio-diesel. The Government of India has determined 400,000 square kilometres of land suitable for the Jatropha growing in the country. India now<br>
<br>A research study estimates that even if a [blending](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) effort of 2% [jatropha curcas](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) based [Biodiesel](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) is achieved in 2011-12, India will conserve around Rs. 3000 crores. Besides, it will create around Rs. 5500 crores in the rural economy and aid in reduction of Green House Gas emission by 3 Million Metric Tonnes (MMT) every year. The federal government is taking steps to motivate the cultivation of [Jatropha](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) in India offering complimentary seeds, subsidized loans and other centers. India needs to now enhance its efforts to make the maximum usage of the [Biodiesel](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) Technology. Besides [Jatropha](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608), the avenues for extracting biodiesel from vegetable oils, fats, sunflower, rape seed oil and palm oil should also be checked out. It will not only offer a response to the obstacle of Global Warming but might reduce our dependence on foreign oil and contribute to our own economy.<br>
