A switch towards environment friendly alternative fuels will solve the problem of growing concern about climate change, and energy security. Commercially available alternative fuels are biodiesel, bioethanol, and electricity. Biodiesel are clean burning mono-alkyl ester based oxygenated fuels produced from various feedstocks such as soybean, mustard, rapeseed, palm, and sunflower oil in many parts of the world ). However, for country like India, food security is the prime concern and India imports 40-50% of the vegetable oil for domestic needs, so most of these options are not viable in Indian scenario . Jatropha oil is non-edible oil, it avoids the food versus fuel dilemma and is a preferred feedstock for biodiesel production in India . Jatropha as a feedstock for biodiesel in India was also supported by National Biodiesel Mission (2009) and studies have confirmed that around 40-50% of biodiesel can be used in current combustion engine without any major modification . By-products from biodiesel production like seed cake are rich in nitrogen and can be used as fertilizer .
