What to do with the Jatropha oil
Jatropha oil is toxic…..????
Used as a medicine for topical treatment on skin
Lamp oil
Biofuel feedstock – Biodiesel, Bio-Jet Fuel, Bio-Gasoline, Green Diesel
The Japanese forced the Indonesians to grow Jatropha to produce oil for the Japanese war effort during World War II. Indonesia has excellent experience in growing Jatropha but in general doesn’t publish much about it.

What CTI Biofuels is doing with JatrophaStarting Plantations in Indonesia and Africa
Why?
Vertically integrate Biofuel business by owning feedstock production
Provide jobs for many third world areas
Produce locally sustainable fuel in third world areas
Use sustainable agriculture to reduce CO2
Produce profit from presently fallow or under-producing land

Indonesian Plans
Plant 2 million Hectares of previously timbered plantations
80,000 hectares acquired
Planting schedule 3000 hectares per month
2500 plants per hectare, 2 m centers (Irrigation addition)
50,000 Hectares requires 5000 people to operate
40 Hectare seed plantation
200 Hectare shaded nursery
Biofuel production to meet local needs
Seed oil production to meet International needs

Jatropha Plantation Yields
1.6 Tonnes per Hectare is world standard
2.7-4.3 Tonnes per Hectare is present Indonesian standard (Shhhhhhhh!)
A 50,000 hectare plantation will yield 80,000 tonnes per year of oil (24 million gallons which is $36 million revenue per year (Jatropha trees can last 50 years)

Conclusion:Jatropha is a viable feedstock for environmental, economic and social reasons
Jatropha plantations although used in WWII are just re-starting
Indonesia has a large knowledge base
CTI Biofuels is starting plantations in Indonesia and Africa with other Tropical areas to follow
Other oil feedstock may eventual supplant Jatropha but they are years away
