Biodiesel Technology Need of the Hour for India
The non-renewability, environmental issues and health threats connected with the nonrenewable fuel sources has led to expedition of alternative sources of energy to substitute the standard ones. An appealing innovation, still in its infancy, that could show us the way to the future ahead is Biodiesels. Biodiesels are diesel fuels originated from grease or animal-fat that could be used to run diesel engines. Vegetables oils like sunflower, rape seed, palm oil, soya bean, Jatropha and so on can be subjected to oil processing to produce biodiesels. It consists of no petroleum but can be blended with petroleum diesel for use or could be used in its pure kind.
Developed countries particularly United States and European Countries have already made considerable advances in the Biodiesel Technology. Biodiesel have found its use across markets and verticals and might become an ideal cleaner and cheaper option to fuel, diesel and nonrenewable fuel sources. India has actually likewise started exploring the chances to produce and use bio-diesel. A variety of plants for biodiesel transesterification are already functioning in the nation where veggie oils are reacted with alcohols (ethanol or methanol normally) to produce bio-diesel.
The primary factor for the increasing demand for biodiesels is the truth that biodiesels are renewable and carbon-neutral, hence having no net effect on the climate. Besides, bio-diesel runs in compression engines much like regular petroleum diesel and hence can be utilized with little or no engine modifications. Biodiesel do not require any different infrastructure for its storage and can be saved simply like the petroleum based fuels.
Considering the growing energy need in the country, increasing petroleum prices and the ecological dangers of nonrenewable fuel sources, the Indian Government has used up efforts to develop the Bio Diesel Technology in India and set up more oil processing units. The Government revealed its ‘National Biofuel Policy’ on 12 September 2008 which intends to meet 20% of India’s diesel demand with bio-fuels in the coming years.
Globally, edible veggie oils like sunflower, soya bean, rape seed, palm oil are used as the pre-dominant basic materials for oil processing and biodiesel production but in India the optimal potential to produce biodiesels is from Jatropha oil – a non-edible one produced from the seeds of the Jatropha curcas. The biggest advantage of using Jatropha as a raw material is that this plant can be grown in big amounts in wastelands all across India needing very little water in comparison to other cash crops. Once grown, the plant has a useful lifespan of numerous years. The Jatropha seeds include 40% oil and are considered to be an exceptional source of bio-diesel. The Government of India has actually determined 400,000 square kilometres of land suitable for the Jatropha growing in the country. India now
A study estimates that even if a blending effort of 2% Jatropha based Biodiesel is accomplished in 2011-12, India will conserve around Rs. 3000 crores. Besides, it will generate around Rs. 5500 crores in the rural economy and help in reduction of Green House by 3 Million Metric Tonnes (MMT) every year. The federal government is taking actions to encourage the growing of Jatropha in India providing free seeds, subsidized loans and other facilities. India requires to now reinforce its efforts to make the fullest usage of the Biodiesel Technology. Besides Jatropha, the opportunities for drawing out biodiesel from veggie oils, fats, sunflower, rape seed oil and palm oil need to likewise be checked out. It will not just provide a response to the obstacle of Global Warming but could reduce our dependence on foreign oil and add to our own economy.
