+<br>It's bad enough for some [prop airplanes](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) to be referred to as being powered by elastic band. Now the skeptics could begin having a dig at commercial aircraft flying on whatever from cooking oil to liquefied algae.<br>
+<br>With the civil air travel market under [increasing pressure](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) from increasing oil costs and environmental legislation, the race is on to [discover practical](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) options to conventional kerosene and these so far seem to boil down to different kinds of [biofuel](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/).<br>
+<br>Not remarkably, the very first trials of  were [initiated](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) by British air travel pioneer, [Sir Richard](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) Branson, whose Virgin Atlantic started London to [Amsterdam flights](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) with limited [biofuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) usage in 2008. This was rapidly followed by Lufthansa and Air New Zealand who each used various blends of routine fuel and bio derivatives consisting of some from made from [jatropha curcas](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) which can grow in soil considered too poor for growing mainstream foodstuffs.<br>
+<br>[Jatropha](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) is a genus of around 175 succulent 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 pointed out [Jatropha](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) [jatropha curcas](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) as one of the very best prospects for future [biodiesel](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) [production](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb). It is resistant to drought and insects, and produces seeds including 27-40% oil.<br>
+<br>Recently, US aerospace giant Boeing, Brazilian aeronautical significant Embraer and the Sao Paulo state Research Support Foundation transferred to perform research and advancement into the use of biofuels to power jet airliners. It was reported that Brazilian airline [companies](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) Azul, Gol, TAM and Trip would function as strategic experts for the [project](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86).<br>
+<br>The most recent airline company to start explore brand-new fuels is the Alaska Air Group which has actually performed internal US flights using a mix of 80 % [petroleum based](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) fuel and 20% [biofuel](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) made from cooking oil. This mixture, it is declared, can cut damaging emissions by 10%.<br>
+<br>One really encouraging advancement has actually been the move far from biofuels which contend head on with food customers thereby preventing a rate spiral. Not so long earlier, a surge in use of biofuels in cars and trucks triggered a spike in maize rates as US farmers diverted too much corn to fuel processing.<br>
+<br>Hopefully in the future, airlines and motorists will focus biofuel usage on non-food sources such as [jatropha](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) and algae.
