Bioenergy technologies

This reports describes experiments with running diesel engines on Jatropha oil, or Methyl ester, as well as a litterature survey

In this thesis, the technical feasibility of using jatropha oil and biogas for dual fuel generators is investigated. This technology could be used for electricity generation in rural areas in developing countries.

This note is intended for technicians and project managers starting up projects with Jatropha production, pressing and applying the PPO (pure plant oil, straight
vegetable oil) in diesel engines.

The research underlying this document was performed to judge the applicability of chemical extraction instead of cold pressing to gain oil from jatropha curcas

People living in the poorest regions in the world, e.g. large parts of the African, Asian and
Latin American continents, often lack access to energy sources in general. One approach

Basicamente, o processo de aquisição do óleo de sementes oleaginosas é tão antigo quanto à humanidade.

engine and is in demand nowdays due to several
factors including price stability, limited reserve of
carbon fuel, and environmental issue. Jatropha is one
