- Abstract
- The exploitation of bioenergy has recently attracted much scientific and commercial
attention as a means of addressing the looming energy crisis. Due to energy intensive industrialization
and large population growth the resource availability is threatening with increase in global warming
which is directly effecting the environment and human health. The rapid growth of the sector leads to
improper land use, which resulted in extensive degradation of land. In this industrialized generation
transport sector is emerging as the largest consumer of liquid fuel, which is on extinction. Jatropha
curcas an oil-bearing plant that can thrive well on semi arid soil with low capital input for its
cultivation can be an alternative renewable source, which substitute for conventional diesel. It also
reclaims the degraded soil for its economic utilization. This plant offers tremendous scope for
biodiesel, which will raise the economy of rural area by generating employments, promoting the
women's status, reducing the poverty (protecting crops and selling by-product). It will be a direct way
of energy supply for the household and stationary engines in rural area and help in erosion control
(planting hedges). By its plantation global warming will decrease along with the use of its oil as
biodiesel in conventional vehicles will prove to be eco-friendly. Its by-product can also be
commercially supplied to market for economic benefits. This review briefly provides the state-of-the-
art information which will stimulate research and development leading to more intensive, efficient, and
sustainable utilization of Jatropha. (literal)
