Re: [biofuel] Extractors and distillation of Jatropha
x-charset ISO-8859-1Jatropha, Based on the information I've seen the seed oil yeild is 0.21. under normal cultivation there is a yeild of around 2,000 litres of oil per hectare. Cetane on the oil is 64-67 making it more efficient than #2 Diesel. Although the trees bear fruit in 6 months, does anyone know what the hectare yeild on the fruit at 6 months growth. Life expectancy is also low at 15 years, does anyone know when the tree reaches maturity and how long it will bear fruit? I also understand that the oil cakes cannot be used in animal feed, is this due to toxicity levels? Does anyone know? There would be around 8 tonnes of oil cake per hectare. Is there any other use of the oil cake other than as fertilizer? What is the nitrogen content? Neem oil can also be used as biodiesel but is normally used as a pesticide. Does anyone know how long it takes before a neem tree bears fruit? Does anyone know what the yeild will be per hectare at this stage? Oil cakes can be used in feed after going through a solvent extraction process, does anyone know what the process is. I noticed that some of you have done research on the biodiesel oils are there any suggestions on two crops one for short term economically viable yeilds and another on the long term. My understanding is that Palm trees can produce 5,000 litres per hectare of oil but I don't know what the growth period is before palm trees start to bear fruit. We intend to start up a site in Jarkhand which will be run by rural Santhal people and want to look at ways to allow them to produce fuel oil cash crops within a one year period plus have additional higher yeild crops that will produce economically viable fuel oils within 2-3 years. Any recommendations? I'm also concerned about the oil cakes that will be produced and would appreciate advice on what plants to avoid when dealing with the disposal of the cakes. Are there any persons who would like to consult on this topic with regards to plantation, extraction, yeild and processing rates. Installation of extraction and processing equipment and training?

Re: [biofuel] Extractors and distillation of Jatropha
x-charset ISO-8859-1There's information on jatropha and other yields here: http://journeytoforever.org/biodiesel_yield.html Vegetable oil yields, characteristics: Journey to Forever It also includes links to two online databases that will tell you a lot more: NewCrop SearchEngine at the Center for New Crops Plant Products at Purdue University -- Search for oil. Results: The following pages containing 'oil' were found -- hits 1-20 of 200. Results are hyperlinked to detailed factsheets. http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/SearchEngine.html Plants For A Future -- Database Search -- See Search by Use - Select any of the following uses. Or select none and use the plant criteria below. Select Other Use - oil. Results: Other Use: Oil (460). Results are hyperlinked to detailed factsheets. http://www.ibiblio.org/pfaf/D_search.html For instance, NewCrop includes among many other references James A. Duke's excellent Handbook of Energy Crops. Here's what it says about jatropha: http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/duke_energy/Jatropha_curcas.html Jatropha curcas L. Euphorbiaceae Physic nut, Purging nut Source: James A. Duke. 1983. Handbook of Energy Crops. unpublished. 1. Uses 2. Folk Medicine 3. Chemistry 4. Toxicity 5. Description 6. Germplasm 7. Distribution 8. Ecology 9. Cultivation 10. Harvesting 11. Yields and Economics 12. Energy 13. Biotic Factors 14. References Uses According to Ochse (1980), the young leaves may be safely eaten, steamed or stewed. They are favored for cooking with goat meat, said to counteract the peculiar smell. Though purgative, the nuts are sometimes roasted and dangerously eaten. In India, pounded leaves are applied near horses' eyes to repel flies. The oil has been used for illumination, soap, candles, adulteration of olive oil, and making Turkey red oil. Nuts can be strung on grass and burned like candlenuts (Watt and Breyer-Brandwijk, 1962). Mexicans grow the shrub as a host for the lac insect. Ashes of the burned root are used as a salt substitute (Morton, 1981). Agaceta et al. (1981) conclude that it has strong molluscicidal activity. Duke and Wain (1981) list it for homicide, piscicide, and raticide as well. The latex was strongly inhibitory to watermelon mosaic virus (Tewari and Shukla, 1982). Bark used as a fish poison (Watt and Breyer-Brandwijk, 1962). In South Sudan, the seed as well as the fruit is used as a contraceptive (List and Horhammer, 1969-1979). Sap stains linen and can be used for marking (Mitchell and Rook, 1979). Little, Woodbury, and Wadsworth (1974) list the species as a honey plant. Folk Medicine According to Hartwell, the extracts are used in folk remedies for cancer. Reported to be abortifacient, anodyne, antiseptic, cicatrizant, depurative, diuretic, emetic, hemostat, lactagogue, narcotic, purgative, rubefacient, styptic, vermifuge, and vulnerary, physic nut is a folk remedy for alopecia, anasorca, ascites, burns, carbuncles, convulsions, cough, dermatitis, diarrhea, dropsy, dysentery, dyspepsia, eczema, erysipelas, fever, gonorrhea, hernia, incontinence, inflammation, jaundice, neuralgia, paralysis, parturition, pleurisy, pneumonia, rash, rheumatism, scabies, sciatica, sores, stomachache, syphilis, tetanus, thrush, tumors, ulcers, uterosis, whitlows, yaws, and yellow fever (Duke and Wain, 1981; List and Horhammer, 1969-1979). Latex applied topically to bee and wasp stings (Watt and Breyer-Brandwijk, 1962). Mauritians massage ascitic limbs with the oil. Cameroon natives apply the leaf decoction in arthritis (Watt and Breyer-Brandwijk, 1962). Colombians drink the leaf decoction for venereal disease (Morton, 1981). Bahamans drink the decoction for heartburn. Costa Ricans poultice leaves onto erysipelas and splenosis. Guatemalans place heated leaves on the breast as a lactagogue. Cubans apply the latex to toothache. Colombians and Costa Ricans apply the latex to burns, hemorrhoids, ringworm, and ulcers. Barbadians use the leaf tea for marasmus, Panamanians for jaundice. Venezuelans take the root decoction for dysentery (Morton, 1981). Seeds are used also for dropsy, gout, paralysis, and skin ailments (Watt and Breyer-Brandwijk, 1962). Leaves are regarded as antiparasitic, applied to scabies; rubefacient for paralysis, rheumatism; also applied to hard tumors (Hartwell, 1967-1971). Latex used to dress sores and ulcers and inflamed tongues (Perry, 1980). Seed is viewed as aperient; the seed oil emetic, laxative, purgative, for skin ailments. Root is used in decoction as a mouthwash for bleeding gums and toothache. Otherwise used for eczema, ringworm, and scabies (Perry, 1980; Duke and Ayensu, 1984).

Re: [biofuel] Extractors and distillation of Jatropha
Hi Sumit Jatropha seems to be something of the flavour of the month in India at the moment, and for awhile - I've been getting more and more enquiries about it from there. Might have something to do with this: NEW DELHI: The Government is mulling investment of over Rs 17,500 crore to undertake a comprehensive programme for extracting oil from Jatropha plantations for blending with diesel. Business online - Monday, December 9, 2002 http://www.hinduonnet.com/bline/blnus/14091304.htm Jatropha curcas is a good option, but there are many other good options. The idea that it's the best option just doesn't take into account how development projects work, if they work at all, and this type of best technology thinking is one reason they often don't work. Almost any locally grown crop would have more going for it, regardless of Jatropha's yield and general usefulness. That's no reason not to use Jatropha, but it has to be fitted in properly, and once again full local involvement is essential for that to happen. For more re which please see: http://journeytoforever.org/community.html http://journeytoforever.org/community2.html Community development: Journey to Forever I cross-posted a message on jatropha in India from Dr A.D. Karve some time ago: I have conducted field experiments on both castor and Jatropha. I had already mentioned in a previous E-mail, that Jatropha was tested rather widely in India and was given up because it was not found to be as high yielding as the traditional oil crops in India. I do not know how it behaves in other countries, but under our agroclimatic and edaphic conditions, Jatropha produces much more vegetative matter than fruits. At harvest, one has to search for the occasional fruit hidden behind all the foliage that this plant produces. It is found all over India as a wild plant. India has some 25 uncultivated species of trees that yield non-edible oil. The seed of the wild trees is collected by villagers and sold to merchants attending the weekly village markets, but no farmer would ever think of growing them as a crop, because all of them are lower yielding than the cultivated oil plants such as peanut, soybean, sunflower, safflower, sesame, various mustards and rapes, coconut, etc. Among the seasonal oilseeds, hybrid castor is the highest yielding (2.5 tonnes oil per ha), but it is not an edible oil. The highest yield of edible oil, also about 2.5 tonnes per ha, is obtained from coconut. Oil palm, which yields 6 tonnes of oil per hectare in Malaysia, was tested and given up as low yielding under Indian conditions.
