Re: [Biofuel] jatropha bio-diesel
What is jatropha ? Do you have another name for it ? Do you know the fatty acid composition ?

Re: [Biofuel] jatropha bio-diesel
Hi Gorvans The oil from rape seed and palm have glycerol linked fatty acids and hence need methanol or etanol to get way glyerine and make BioD which is an ester of acids with alcohol and thus need reator , catalysts, washing , purification and energy to mix all etc. The oil obtained from Jataropha plant is natural BIOD , that can be used directly by enegine , but need filteration. You can see more informationfrom the following link.

[biofuel] Jatropha bio diesel
This is already being done by a chap in Australia using the Jatropha oil. http://www.bebioenergy.com/biodiesel.htm It is reported as being every bit as good and even superior to petro diesel. many of the questions asked concerning jatropha are answered there. Of course, being a bit biased, I recommend http://journeytoforever.org/biodiesel_make.html as a one stop shop for all your production needs :) Have a nice day. --- In biofuel@yahoogroups.com, theo [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We are very interested in producing bio diesel from jatropha. What is confusing to us is that one source will indicate that bio diesel is as efficient as normal diesel and another source will say that you have 15% loss. Also there are numerous other instances where one source will say one thing and another one will say something different. We live in South Africa in an area with a reasonably high rainfall. Verging on the sub tropical. There is lots of under utilised ground and more than adequate labour sources. The idea is to organise people into co-ops etc. Do you believe that jatropha is the way to go taking into consideration the above mentioned facts or should we be looking at something else? We would like to know what the correct answers are to the following: 1. Can you use oil pressed from jatropha directly as a fuel for a diesel engine? 2. Is there any power loss compared to normal diesel fuel and what if any? 3. What is the correct spacing to use when planting jatropha. 4. Is it more desirable to establish plantations using cuttings, seeds or seedlings? 5. Do you know of any reputable dealers in seed or cuttings? 5.b. It must be remembered that that the above seeds will have to transported via air freight. 6. What yields seeds/oil can conservatively be expected per hectare once the plants are established. 7. What ongoing inputs are needed and is it necessary to water and clean around the trees on a on going basis? 8. Are there any pests and diseases we should be prepared for? 9. How long does it take for the tree to reach full yield and for how long can you expect this to continue, conservatively? 10. How often does the tree bear nuts/fruit? 11. We are led to believe that you can grow the trees from cuttings quiet easily. Is this true and do the get the same yields etc. from cuttings? 12. Can the remains of the seeds be used for anything once we have pressed out the oil? 13. Are there any other uses for the by products. Will appreciate all inputs. Theo Yahoo!
