<br>The non-renewability, ecological issues and health threats related to the fossil fuels has resulted in exploration of alternative sources of energy to replace the traditional ones. A promising technology, still in its infancy, that might show us the way to the future ahead is Biodiesels. [Biodiesels](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) are diesel fuels [originated](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) from grease or animal-fat that might be used to run diesel motors. Vegetables oils like sunflower, rape seed, palm oil, soya bean, [Jatropha](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) etc can be subjected to oil processing to produce biodiesels. It includes no petroleum but can be blended with petroleum diesel for usage or might be used in its pure kind.<br>
<br>Developed nations especially United States and European Countries have actually already made considerable advances in the Biodiesel Technology. Biodiesel have actually found its use across industries and verticals and could become an ideal cleaner and more affordable option to fuel, diesel and fossil fuels. India has actually likewise [begun checking](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) out the opportunities to produce and utilize bio-diesel. A number of plants for biodiesel transesterification are already working in the [country](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) where veggie oils are responded with alcohols (ethanol or methanol typically) to produce bio-diesel.<br>
<br>The primary factor for the increasing need for biodiesels is the fact that biodiesels are renewable and carbon-neutral, thus having no net effect on the climate. Besides, bio-diesel runs in compression engines similar to normal petroleum diesel and thus can be utilized with little or no engine modifications. [Biodiesel](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) do not require any separate 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 costs and the environmental threats of fossil fuels, the Indian Government has used up initiatives to establish the Bio Diesel Technology in India and set up more oil processing systems. The Government revealed its 'National Biofuel Policy' on 12 September 2008 which intends to fulfill 20% of India's diesel demand with bio-fuels in the coming years.<br>
<br>Globally, oils like sunflower, soya bean, rape seed, palm oil are utilized as the pre-dominant raw [materials](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) for oil processing and biodiesel production however in India the optimal potential to produce biodiesels is from [Jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) oil - a non-edible one produced from the seeds of the [Jatropha curcas](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price). The greatest benefit of using [Jatropha](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) as a raw material is that this plant can be grown in huge amounts in wastelands all across India needing very little water in comparison to other money crops. Once grown, the plant has a useful life expectancy of a number of years. The [jatropha curcas](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) seeds contain 40% oil and are considered to be an outstanding source of bio-diesel. The Government of India has actually recognized 400,000 square kilometres of land ideal for the [jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) growing in the country. India now<br>
<br>A research study estimates that even if a [blending effort](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) of 2% [jatropha curcas](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) based Biodiesel is attained in 2011-12, India will save around Rs. 3000 crores. Besides, it will [produce](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) around Rs. 5500 crores in the rural economy and assistance in decrease of Green House Gas [emission](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) by 3 Million Metric Tonnes (MMT) every year. The [federal government](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) is taking steps to motivate the growing of [Jatropha](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) in India supplying free seeds, subsidized loans and other centers. India needs to now reinforce its efforts to make the maximum use of the Biodiesel Technology. Besides [jatropha curcas](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608), the opportunities for extracting biodiesel from veggie oils, fats, sunflower, rape seed oil and [palm oil](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) must likewise be checked out. It will not just supply a response to the difficulty of Global Warming but might reduce our reliance on [foreign oil](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) and contribute to our own economy.<br>
