Bulk GMP Best Quality Jatropher Seeds For Sale

Analysis of the Jatropha seed shows the following chemical composition :   Moisture 6.20% Protein 18.00% Fat 38.00% Carbohydrates 17.00% Fiber 15.50 % Asg 5.30%   The oil conten is 35 - 40  in the see and 50 - 60 % in the kermel. The oil contains 21% satured fatty acids and 79 % unsaturated fatty acids. There are some chemicals elements in the seed which are poisonous and render the oil not appropriate for human consumption.   It is significant to point out that, the non-edible vegetable oil of jatropha curcas has the requisite potential of providing a promising and commercially viable alternative to diesel oil since it has desirable physicochemical and performance characteristics comparable to diesel. Cars could be run with Jatropha Curcas without requiring much change in design.   The chemical analysis of Jatropha Curcas is given in Table (1).   ITEM                             VALUE Acid value                          38.2 Saponification value            195.0 Iodine value                       101.7 Viscosity (31°C) "Fatty Acid"    40.4 Palmitic acid %                   4.2 Stearic acid   %                      6.9 Oleic acid     %                     43.1 Linoleic acid  %                    34.3 Other acids   %                     1.4             The comparison of properties of Jatropha oil and standard specifications of diesel oil are shown in Table (2).:   SPECIFICATIONS           STANDARDS SPECS JCO          STANDARD SPECS DIESEL Specific Gravity                         0.9186                                       0.82 / 0.84 Flash point                             240/110 °C                                50° C Carbon residue                         0.64                                          0.15 or less Cetane Value                             51.0                                          50.0 up Distillation Point                        295 °C                                       350 °C Kinematics viscosity                50.73 CS                                   2.7 cs up Sulphur %                                0.13 %                                      1.2 % or less Calorific Value                       9 470 kcal / kg                          10 170 kcal / kg Pour point                                     8 ° C                                        10° C Colour                                         4.0                                          4 or less           Table (3) : Physical and Chemical properties of Diesel Fuel and Curcas Oil     Table (3)   PROPERTY                                      CURCAS OIL                      DIESEL OIL   Viscosity (cp) 30°C                      52.6 (5.51)2                                     3.60 Specific Gravity 15° / 4°                 0.917 / 0.923                             0.841 / 0.85 C                                                       (0.881)                                                       Solidifying point (°C)                           2                                            0.14 Cetane Value                                       51.0 (38)                                47.8 . 59   Flash point °C                                        110 / 340                               80 Carbon Rsidue %                                   0.64                                    < 0.05 < 0.15 Distillation °C                                          284 . 295                              < 350 . < 370 Sulphur %                                           0.13 . 0.16                             <  10.12                      Acid Value                                           1.0 . 38.2 Saporification Value                             188 . 198 Iodine value                                           90.8 . 112.5 Refractive Index (30°C)                              1.47
