  • How is biodiesel extracted from Jatropha?
  • Biodiesel is the main product from Jatropha, which is obtained from the oil derived from its seeds. Oil is typically extracted using cold press or a mechanical expeller. Steam may be used during the process to maximize the recovery. A high-quality oil is one without any free fatty acids (FFA).
  • How Jatropha seeds can be processed effectively without mechanisation?
  • The processing of large quantities of Jatropha seeds cannot be accomplished effectively without the assistance of mechanisation. All of the abovementioned machines or tools can play a role in the business operations and the technical activities that must be conducted so that the technology is effective and profitable.
  • Why do we need to prepare Jatropha seeds before oil extraction?
  • High production of biodiesel is required to cope with the depletion of current energy sources. Hence, a large amount of Jatropha seeds need to be prepared prior to the oil extraction process in order to meet the demand.
  • What is the oil yield of Jatropha seeds?
  • The seed yield has been reported as 0.2¨C12 t/ha depending on the growing conditions , , . The oil yield can achieve 1590 kg/ha . Other research has stated that the oil yield of Jatropha seeds is competitive compared to soybean and rapeseed which both produce lesser oil by weight .
  • How to reduce seed cost in Jatropha biodiesel industry?
  • The reduction in the price of the seed from US$0.10 to US$0.08 per kg can decrease the price of the crude oil from US$0.83 to US$0.67 per litre . As a result, the process of mechanisation has become the primary development trend to reduce the seed cost in the Jatropha biodiesel industry.
  • Can Jatropha seeds be processed to produce cleaner kernels?
  • However, the further processing of Jatropha seeds to produce cleaner kernels has turned out to be characterised by various bottlenecks such as the difficulty of separating the kernels and husks mechanically. Dehulling seeds mechanically without causing crush damage is a challenging task.
