+<br>It's bad enough for some propeller airplanes to be referred to as being powered by elastic band. Now the cynics might begin having a dig at business airplane flying on everything from [cooking oil](https://www.abnnewswire.net/companies/en/31347/%E0%B8%9A%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%A9%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%97-Mission-NewEnergy-%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B3%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%94.html/4) to melted algae.<br>
+<br>With the civil air travel industry under increasing pressure from increasing oil costs and ecological legislation, the race is on to find feasible options to standard kerosene and these up until now seem to boil down to numerous kinds of [biofuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd).<br>
+<br>Not surprisingly, the very first trials of [alternative fuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) were started by British aviation pioneer, [Sir Richard](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) Branson, whose Virgin Atlantic started London to Amsterdam flights with limited [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) usage in 2008. This was rapidly followed by Lufthansa and Air New Zealand who each used various blends of routine fuel and bio derivatives [including](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) some from made from [jatropha curcas](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) which can grow in soil thought about too bad for growing mainstream foods items.<br>
+<br>[Jatropha](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) is a genus of approximately 175 [succulent](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) plants, shrubs and trees (some are deciduous, like [Jatropha curcas](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile)), from the household Euphorbiaceae.<br>
+<br>In 2007 Goldman [Sachs cited](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) [Jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) as one of the very best candidates for future [biodiesel](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) production. It is resistant to dry spell and insects, and produces seeds including 27-40% oil.<br>
+<br>Recently, US aerospace giant Boeing, Brazilian [aeronautical major](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html)  and the Sao Paulo state Research Support Foundation transferred to bring out research study and development into using biofuels to power jet airliners. It was reported that Brazilian airline companies Azul, Gol, TAM and Trip would act as strategic consultants for the task.<br>
+<br>The current airline company to start try out new fuels is the Alaska Air Group which has carried out internal US [flights](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) using a mix of 80 % petroleum based fuel and 20% [biofuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) made from cooking oil. This mixture, it is declared, can [cut harmful](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) emissions by 10%.<br>
+<br>One really [motivating development](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) has actually been the relocation far from biofuels which contend head on with food customers therefore avoiding a price spiral. Not so long back, a rise in usage of biofuels in vehicles caused a spike in maize rates as US farmers diverted excessive corn to fuel processing.<br>
+<br>Hopefully in the future, airlines and drivers will focus [biofuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) usage on [non-food sources](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) such as [jatropha](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) and algae. It would be a blended blessing certainly if some individuals ended up starving simply to please another person's green credentials.<br>
