<br>The non-renewability, environmental issues and health risks associated with the fossil fuels has actually resulted in expedition of alternative sources of energy to substitute the traditional ones. An appealing innovation, still in its infancy, that could show us the way to the future ahead is Biodiesels. Biodiesels are diesel fuels derived from grease or animal-fat that could be utilized to run diesel engines. [Vegetables](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) oils like sunflower, rape seed, palm oil, soya bean, [jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) etc can be subjected to oil processing to produce biodiesels. It consists of no petroleum but can be combined with petroleum diesel for use or might be utilized in its pure type.<br>

<br>Developed nations specifically United States and European Countries have already made significant advances in the Biodiesel Technology. [Biodiesel](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) have found its usage throughout industries and verticals and might emerge as a perfect cleaner and less expensive alternative to fuel, diesel and nonrenewable fuel sources. India has also started exploring the chances to produce and use bio-diesel. A variety of plants for biodiesel transesterification are already functioning in the country where vegetable oils are responded with alcohols (ethanol or methanol normally) to produce bio-diesel.<br>

|
<br>The main reason for the increasing need for biodiesels is the reality that biodiesels are renewable and carbon-neutral, thus having no net influence on the environment. Besides, bio-diesel runs in compression engines similar to normal petroleum diesel and hence can be used with little or no engine adjustments. [Biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) do not require any separate infrastructure for its storage and can be stored much like the petroleum based fuels.<br>

<br>Considering the growing energy need in the country, rising petroleum prices and the environmental risks of nonrenewable fuel sources, the Indian Government has used up initiatives to establish the [Bio Diesel](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) Technology in India and established more oil processing [systems](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm). The Government announced its 'National [Biofuel](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) Policy' on 12 September 2008 which [intends](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) to meet 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 production however in India the optimal potential to produce biodiesels is from [Jatropha](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) oil - a non-edible one produced from the seeds of the [Jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html). The most significant advantage of using [jatropha curcas](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) as a basic material is that this plant can be grown in huge amounts in wastelands all across India requiring extremely little water in comparison to other money crops. Once grown, the plant has a useful life-span of several years. The [Jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) seeds contain 40% oil and are thought about to be an outstanding source of bio-diesel. The Government of India has actually identified 400,000 square kilometres of land appropriate for the [jatropha curcas](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) growing in the nation. India now<br>

<br>A study estimates that even if a blending initiative of 2% [jatropha curcas](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) based [Biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) is [attained](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) in 2011-12, India will save around Rs. 3000 crores. Besides, it will generate around Rs. 5500 crores in the rural economy and help in decrease of Green House [Gas emission](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) by 3 Million Metric Tonnes (MMT) every year. The federal [government](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) is taking steps to motivate the cultivation of [jatropha curcas](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) in India supplying totally free seeds, and other facilities. India needs to now strengthen its efforts to make the fullest use of the [Biodiesel](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) Technology. Besides [Jatropha](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/), the opportunities for extracting biodiesel from vegetable oils, fats, sunflower, rape seed oil and palm oil ought to also be checked out. It will not just offer an answer to the challenge of Global Warming however might decrease our reliance on foreign oil and contribute to our own economy.<br>
