<br>It's bad enough for some [propeller airplanes](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) to be referred to as being powered by elastic band. Now the skeptics could begin having a dig at [business aircraft](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) flying on everything from cooking oil to melted algae.<br>
<br>With the [civil air](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) travel market under increasing pressure from increasing oil prices and environmental legislation, the race is on to discover feasible [options](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) to and these up until now seem to boil down to different types of [biofuel](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889).<br>
<br>Not surprisingly, the first trials of alternative fuel were initiated by British air travel leader, Sir Richard Branson, whose Virgin Atlantic began London to Amsterdam flights with minimal biofuel usage in 2008. This was rapidly followed by Lufthansa and Air New Zealand who each utilized various blends of routine fuel and bio [derivatives consisting](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) of some from made from [jatropha](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) which can grow in soil thought about too poor for [growing mainstream](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) foodstuffs.<br>
<br>[Jatropha](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) is a genus of around 175 succulent plants, shrubs and trees (some are deciduous, like [Jatropha curcas](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited)), from the [household Euphorbiaceae](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/).<br>
<br>In 2007 Goldman Sachs cited [Jatropha curcas](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) as one of the very best prospects for future [biodiesel](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) production. It is resistant to dry spell and insects, and produces seeds containing 27-40% oil.<br>
<br>Recently, US aerospace giant Boeing, Brazilian aerial major Embraer and the Sao Paulo state Research Support Foundation transferred to perform research study and advancement into the use of biofuels to power jet airliners. It was reported that [Brazilian airlines](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) Azul, Gol, TAM and Trip would serve as [tactical experts](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) for the task.<br>
<br>The current airline [company](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) to begin experimenting with brand-new fuels is the Alaska Air Group which has [conducted](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) internal US flights using a mix of 80 % petroleum based fuel and 20% biofuel made from cooking oil. This mixture, it is declared, can cut hazardous emissions by 10%.<br>
<br>One actually motivating advancement has actually been the relocation far from biofuels which complete head on with food consumers thereby preventing a rate spiral. Not so long back, a rise in use of [biofuels](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) in cars and trucks triggered a spike in maize rates as US farmers [diverted excessive](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) corn to fuel processing.<br>
<br>Hopefully in the future, airline companies and vehicle [drivers](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) will focus biofuel consumption on non-food sources such as [jatropha](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) and algae. It would be a mixed true blessing certainly if some individuals ended up starving simply to please another person's green qualifications.<br>
