Optimization of mechanical oil extraction from Jatropha curcas L. kernel using response surface method (2015, unknown): “…in rural areas is Jatropha oil (Kumar and Sharma, 2008; Makkar and Becker, 2009 It is non-edible oil, thus it will not impair food security issues (Pinzi et al., 2009) As it grows well on dry marginal non-agricultural land, it will not compete with land needed for food production or with nature…”
Production and comparative fuel properties of biodiesel from non-edible oils: Jatropha curcas, Sterculia foetida and Ceiba pentandra (2013, background): “It is reported that biodiesel with a high level of methyl oleate (monounsaturated fatty acid) may have excellent characteristics in ignition quality, fuel stability and flow properties at low temperature [23].”
Lipid content and fatty acid composition of Mediterranean macro-algae as dynamic factors for biodiesel production (2015, background): “Recently, much research has focused on the production of biodiesel from non-edible sources, such as Jatropha and algae (Komninos and Rakopoulos, 2012; Pinzi et al., 2009).”
