+<br>It's bad enough for some prop aircrafts to be explained as being powered by elastic band. Now the [skeptics](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) might start having a dig at commercial aircraft flying on everything from [cooking oil](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) to liquefied algae.<br>
+<br>With the civil air travel market under increasing pressure from rising oil prices and ecological legislation, the race is on to [discover feasible](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) alternatives to standard kerosene and these up until now appear to come down to different kinds of .<br>
+<br>Not remarkably, the very first trials of [alternative fuel](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) were initiated by British aviation leader, Sir Richard Branson, whose [Virgin Atlantic](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) started London to Amsterdam flights with limited [biofuel](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) use in 2008. This was quickly followed by Lufthansa and Air New Zealand who each used various blends of routine fuel and bio derivatives [including](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) some from made from [jatropha](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) which can grow in soil thought about too poor for growing mainstream foods items.<br>
+<br>[Jatropha](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) is a genus of roughly 175 succulent plants, shrubs and trees (some are deciduous, like [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)), from the household Euphorbiaceae.<br>
+<br>In 2007 Goldman Sachs pointed out [Jatropha curcas](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) as one of the best prospects for future [biodiesel](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) production. It is resistant to drought and pests, 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](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) Foundation relocated to perform research study and development into the use of biofuels to power jet airliners. It was reported that [Brazilian airline](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) companies Azul, Gol, TAM and Trip would function as strategic experts for the job.<br>
+<br>The most recent airline to start exploring with [brand-new fuels](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) is the Alaska Air Group which has actually carried out internal US flights utilizing a mix of 80 % [petroleum based](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) fuel and 20% [biofuel](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) made from cooking oil. This mix, it is declared, can cut harmful emissions by 10%.<br>
+<br>One really encouraging advancement has been the move far from biofuels which compete head on with food customers therefore avoiding a price spiral. Not so long ago, a surge in use of biofuels in cars caused a spike in maize costs as US farmers [diverted](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) too much corn to fuel processing.<br>
+<br>Hopefully in the future, [airline companies](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) and drivers will [focus biofuel](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) consumption on non-food sources such as [jatropha curcas](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) and algae. It would be a mixed blessing undoubtedly if some people wound up starving just to satisfy somebody else's green credentials.<br>
