The process of producing bio-fuel does not have to undergo any trans-esterification which normally uses methanol derives from petroleum sources and energy intensive. Turning palm biodiesel to meet EN14214 with minus 21C pour point requires the said methyl ester to be fractionated twice and this process is very energy intensive and very costly. A Revolutionary Jatropha nano-emulsion B20 Biofuel (for both diesel and petrol) is taking the lead. BIONAS has developed a biofuel component which is 100% biodegradable, zero sulfur, renewable, sustainable and green. Our nano-emulsion B20 Biofuel is derived from Jatropha, the only viable 2nd generation biofuel feedstock which is non-food and environmental friendly. The base oil of our emulsified B20 Biofuel is processed Jatropha oil emulsified with some water to yield a 100% biodegradable fuel component. It is blended into normal diesel to yield an emulsified diesel which can make biodiesel obsolete (neat biodiesel from transesterification process is very costly, increase NOx and with 10% lower energy content). We have formulated and synthesized a very stable emulsion which have been demonstrated and tested with buses in Sarawak, Melaka and Singapore. The test result announced by PUSPAKOM on 2 Lorries with black smoke exhaust emission showed that 70% pollution had been reduced. The said test was conducted at our Commercial and Development Centre (Bionas pump station) at Dengkil, Selangor on 20th.August 2009. (Please refer to www.bionas.com.my).
