Jojoba, biodiesel, oil, energy, fuelAbstract
The development and use of renewable energy have been put forward on the national agenda due to high oil prices, limited resources, environmental pressure and rapid-economic growth. Jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis) is chosen as an ideal biodiesel crop in Libya because its seed kernel has high oil content (45–60%) and it does not compete with food. Its oil is non-edible, and the trees can resist drought and grow on barren and marginal lands without using arable land. This article reviews biodiesel productions, sources, characteristics, economy and life cycle analysis. Further, future prospects of Jojoba biodiesel industry in Libya are discussed in detail.
