+<br>It's bad enough for some propeller airplanes to be explained as being powered by elastic band. Now the skeptics might start having a dig at industrial aircraft flying on whatever from cooking oil to melted algae.<br>
+<br>With the civil air travel market under increasing pressure from increasing oil costs and ecological legislation, the race is on to find viable alternatives to standard kerosene and these up until now appear to boil down to numerous types of [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL).<br>
+<br>Not remarkably, the first trials of alternative fuel were started by British air travel leader, Sir Richard Branson, whose Virgin Atlantic began London to Amsterdam flights with [limited](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) [biofuel](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) usage in 2008. This was quickly followed by Lufthansa and Air New [Zealand](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) who each used different blends of [regular fuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) and  [including](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) some from made from [jatropha curcas](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) which can grow in soil thought about too poor for growing mainstream foods items.<br>
+<br>[Jatropha](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) is a genus of around 175 succulent plants, shrubs and trees (some are deciduous, like [Jatropha](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) [jatropha curcas](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/)), from the family Euphorbiaceae.<br>
+<br>In 2007 Goldman Sachs cited [Jatropha](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) [jatropha curcas](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) as one of the very best candidates for future [biodiesel](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) production. It is resistant to [drought](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) and bugs, and produces seeds [including](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) 27-40% oil.<br>
+<br>Recently, US [aerospace giant](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) Boeing, Brazilian aeronautical significant Embraer and the Sao Paulo state Research Support Foundation moved to bring out research study and advancement into making use of biofuels to power jet airliners. It was reported that Brazilian airline companies Azul, Gol, TAM and Trip would act as tactical specialists for the project.<br>
+<br>The most recent airline company to begin try out brand-new fuels is the Alaska Air Group which has actually performed internal US flights using a mix of 80 % petroleum based fuel and 20% [biofuel](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) made from cooking oil. This mix, it is claimed, can cut harmful emissions by 10%.<br>
+<br>One really motivating development has been the relocation away from biofuels which contend head on with food customers thus preventing a price spiral. Not so long earlier, a rise in use of biofuels in [vehicles caused](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) a spike in maize costs as US farmers diverted too much corn to fuel processing.<br>
+<br>Hopefully in the future, airline companies and [vehicle drivers](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) will focus [biofuel](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) intake on non-food sources such as [jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) and algae. It would be a combined true blessing undoubtedly if some people ended up starving simply to satisfy somebody else's green credentials.<br>
