It's bad enough for some prop airplanes to be [referred](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) to as being powered by rubber bands. Now the cynics might start having a dig at industrial aircraft flying on whatever from cooking oil to liquefied algae.

With the civil air [travel market](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) under increasing pressure from rising oil costs and [environmental](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) legislation, the race is on to find feasible options to standard [kerosene](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) and these up until now appear to come down to various types of [biofuel](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/).

Not remarkably, the very first trials of alternative fuel were initiated by British air travel leader, Sir Richard Branson, whose [Virgin Atlantic](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) began London to Amsterdam flights with limited biofuel use in 2008. This was rapidly followed by [Lufthansa](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) and Air New Zealand who each used various blends of routine fuel and bio derivatives consisting of some from made from [jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) which can grow in soil considered too bad for growing mainstream foods.

[Jatropha](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) is a genus of approximately 175 succulent plants, shrubs and trees (some are deciduous, like [Jatropha curcas](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm)), from the household Euphorbiaceae.

In 2007 [Goldman Sachs](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) cited [Jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) as one of the very best [candidates](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) for future [biodiesel](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) production. It is resistant to drought and insects, and produces seeds [including](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) 27-40% oil.

Recently, US aerospace giant Boeing, Brazilian aeronautical significant Embraer and the Sao Paulo state Research Support Foundation relocated to perform research and development into making use of biofuels to power jet airliners. It was reported that Brazilian airlines Azul, Gol, TAM and Trip would serve as for the job.

The newest airline to start try out new fuels is the [Alaska Air](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) Group which has conducted internal US flights using a blend of 80 % petroleum based fuel and 20% biofuel made from cooking oil. This mix, it is declared, can cut hazardous emissions by 10%.

One really motivating advancement has actually been the relocation far from biofuels which contend head on with food consumers consequently [preventing](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) a [cost spiral](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86). Not so long ago, a surge in use of biofuels in automobiles caused a spike in maize costs as US farmers diverted too much corn to fuel processing.

Hopefully in the future, airline companies and drivers will focus biofuel consumption on non-food sources such as [jatropha curcas](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) and algae. It would be a combined true [blessing](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) undoubtedly if some people ended up starving simply to please another [person's green](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) credentials.
