In India, It is estimated that cost of Bio- Diesel produced by
trans-esterification of oil obtained from Jatropha Curcas oil-seeds
shall approximately of oil obtained from Jatropha Cucas oil-seeds
shall be sane as that of petro-diesel. On the cost of Bio-diesel
varies between Rs 16.59 - 14.98/ liter. Assumptions are that the
seed contains 35% oil, oil extraction will be 91-92 %, 1.05 kg of
oil will be required to produce 1 kg of Bio-diesel, recovery from
sale of glycerol will be at the rate of Rs. 40-60 per kg. The price
of Glycerol is likely to be
depressed with the
processing of such large
quantities of oil and
consequent production of
Glycerol raising the cost of
Bio-diesel, however, new
applications are likely to
be fund creating additional
demand and stabilizing its
prize. With volatility in
the price of crude, the use
of Bio-diesel is
economically feasible and a
strategic option.

committee on development of
Bio-diesel.)
