out of energy security, greenhouse gas emissions and other considerations, the world have increased domestic bio-liquid fuel production. Recently, the Energy Foundation China (Energy Foundation) issued a report entitled "the world's major national bio-liquid fuel industry policy" research report.
The report states that, compared to fuel ethanol, India biodiesel started late, mainly by the large population, edible oil supply and other conditions are limited, must rely on non-edible oil to produce biodiesel. India has a variety of non-edible tree oils, of which Jatropha carcas L. and Pongamia pinnata [Karanja] are the focus of the development of biodiesel raw materials. In 2002, the Indian Planning Commission established the Biofuel Development Committee, which in April 2003 recommended the launch of the National Biodiesel Mission (NBM) and the Rural Development Department as the agency implementing the program. The goal of the National Biodiesel Program is to plant 11.2 million hectares of Jatropha curcas to meet the 20% demand for diesel in India in 2012. The program is divided into two phases: the first phase (2003-2007), plans to grow 400,000 hectares of Jatropha curcas, and confirm the variety of Jatropha curcas cultivated in various agroclimatic areas, develop nursery, provide subsidies to farmers Of the planting materials; the second phase (2007-2012), the production of 2011 to 2012 required 20% of mixed diesel, 11 million hectares of wasteland planted Jatropha curcas to protect the supply of adequate raw materials. The Ministry of Oil and Gas of India promulgated the "National Biodiesel Purchase Policy" on October 9, 2005 to promote the use of biodiesel. The policy stipulates that National Oil will purchase biodiesel at a price of Rs 26.5 per liter (equivalent to $ 0.65) at 20 designated procurement centers and mix with 5% and high speed diesel, which is scheduled for January 1, 2006 Effective. Biodiesel suppliers are required to register with the State Coordinator and provide products that meet the specifications of the Indian Bureau of Standards (Liu Heqing, 2009).
The Indian National Biodiesel Program (NBM) uses jatropha as the most suitable non-edible oilseed for biodiesel production, but the government plans to produce enough biodiesel in 2011/12 to meet the 20% mix rate that can not be achieved, Because there is no sufficient raw materials and high-yield drought-resistant jatropha varieties. Approximately 3.21 million tons of biodiesel needed 3.42 million hectares of Jatropha curcas, with a 5% mixed target of 2011/12. Taking into account the main raw material of Jatropha curcas biodiesel, 2.5 tons of average seed production and 30% biodiesel recovery, it is estimated that 18.6 million hectares of Jatropha curcas can meet 2021 20% mixed target. The above assessment assumes a steady growth in India's annual diesel demand of 6.4% -7%. Fiscal 2012-2016 diesel demand may grow 35% to 87.4 million hectares. Meet the 5% mixed target requires an additional 4.1 million hectares of Jatropha curcas.
