<br>It's bad enough for some [propeller aircrafts](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) to be explained as being powered by [elastic band](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile). Now the cynics could begin having a dig at [business airplane](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) flying on everything from cooking oil to liquefied algae.<br>
<br>With the [civil air](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) travel industry under [increasing pressure](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) from increasing oil prices and environmental legislation, the race is on to discover viable options to traditional kerosene and these up until now appear to boil down to different kinds of [biofuel](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy).<br>
<br>Not remarkably, the very first trials of alternative fuel were initiated by British aviation leader, Sir Richard Branson, whose Virgin Atlantic began London to Amsterdam flights with limited [biofuel](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) use in 2008. This was quickly followed by Lufthansa and Air New Zealand who each used different blends of regular fuel and bio derivatives including some from made from [jatropha](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) which can grow in soil considered too poor for growing mainstream foods items.<br>
<br>[jatropha curcas](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) is a genus of approximately 175 succulent plants, shrubs and trees (some are deciduous, like [jatropha curcas](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/)), from the family Euphorbiaceae.<br>
<br>In 2007 Goldman Sachs pointed out [Jatropha curcas](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) as one of the very best prospects for future [biodiesel](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) production. It is resistant to drought and bugs, and produces seeds containing 27-40% oil.<br>
<br>Recently, US aerospace giant Boeing, Brazilian aerial significant Embraer and the Sao Paulo state Research Support Foundation [transferred](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) to carry out research study and advancement into the use of biofuels to power jet airliners. It was reported that [Brazilian airlines](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) Azul, Gol, TAM and Trip would serve as tactical experts for the task.<br>
<br>The newest airline to begin explore new fuels is the Alaska Air Group which has actually performed internal US flights utilizing a blend of 80 % [petroleum based](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) fuel and 20% [biofuel](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) made from cooking oil. This mixture, it is claimed, can cut harmful emissions by 10%.<br>
<br>One actually encouraging development has actually been the relocation far from biofuels which contend head on with food consumers thereby [preventing](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) a price spiral. Not so long back, a rise in usage of biofuels in vehicles caused a spike in maize prices as US farmers diverted excessive corn to fuel processing.<br>
<br>Hopefully in the future, airline companies and motorists will focus [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) usage on [non-food sources](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) such as [jatropha curcas](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) and algae. It would be a mixed blessing certainly if some individuals wound up starving just to satisfy somebody else's green [credentials](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd).<br>
