By now, the need for
bio-diesel and its advantages are known to everybody. Vegetable
oil (either edible or non-edible), when processed to remove fatty
acids, gives bio-diesel. To produce biodiesel, more plantations
will be required, which will make the earth greener and will help
arrest ozone depletion. Use of bio-diesel will reduce emission and
air pollution substantially. It will fill the gap of demand and
diesel shortage created by depleting reserves of fossil fuels. Moreover,
Bio-diesel is a renewable source of energy. |

| Bio-diesel to India offers many unique
advantages. First & foremost, it will reduce/eliminate import
of crude oil/diesel. It will make nation self-sufficient, particularly
our Defence. It will provide employment opportunities to rural population.
It will utilise wasteland that presently gives hardly any income.
Bio-energy projects will provide Power generation with less investment.,
compared to conventional methods. Also, it will create availability
of good quality organic manure, to help farming and will reduce the
effects of chemical fertilizers. |
