BIODIESEL FENCE DISTANCE THUS NATIONAL PROJECT

desert can save difficulty of this country in providing oil fuel ( BBM) for public?people. From around 13 million hektare arid farm in all Indonesia, if cultivated [by] fence distance tree can yield more than 400 thousand diesel fuel barrels per day. With this production, mengutak-atic confused unnecessary government of RAPBN proposes fluctuation the price of oil.

Body Center Statistic mentions, semester I this year, Indonesia imports oil for the price of US$ 28,37 billions. The value bigger than same period of year before all, what reachs US$ 20,96 billions. One of type BBM which many consumed is diesel fuel. Up this moment until now, consumption of diesel fuel 460 thousand barrels, or 73.140.000 litres per day. Height of diesel fuel usage number, his(its real not must closed through import. There are some alternative energy source which able to be substitution in the place of diesel fuel. One of them is energy biodiesel castor oil base barium. Making of alternative energy, now starts symptom in various world clefts.

Some of states something develops biodiesel, partly other activates bioetanol. This means, Indonesia is not alone when looking for alternative energy source. Its proof, state as of United States class only, still stiring digs new energy source. First week, this August, President ACE George W Bush signs Bill of Energy ( Energy Bill) special arranges Bio Fuel. Similar symptom also emerges among world oil company. For example, North Dakota Biodiesel Inc investing US$ 50 million for project of biodiesel in Minot, North Dakota, USA. this Biodiesel bases on at crop canola ( oat). This lah the biggest project in North America region, with produce of 100 thousand tons BBM.

Biodiesel yielded out of 144 thousand garden hectares canola. Palm oil producer in Malaysia, IOI Corp and Kuok Oil & Grains builds two distillations of palm oil in Roterdam producing multiple million palm oil tons in one years. This industry plans fulfills requirement of biodiesel in Europe in future. Meanwhile, giant oil company Brazil, Petrobras will increase ethanol export to 9,4 litre billions at 2010, from two litre billions the year 2005.

Now, Japan Mitsui & Cobalt and Vale does Rio Doce ( CVRD) partakes supports plan Petrobras through improvement study of ethanol export Brazil. The world company not without reason if dropping choice to biodiesel. More than anything else in chemistry principle, invention of alternative energy differs in thin with invention of conventional energy ( petroleum). Because, said Direktur PT Rekayasa Industri Triharyo Soesilo, both pari pasu activates solar energy. " But, petroleum happened because dipress so much time ( in earth stomach). But the energy can be simulation in flora or fruits," adds it.

simulation process of This energy lah yielding fuel biodiesel. Unhappily as equator state, the sun energy conversion maximum Indonesia has not. Differs in its(the fact with other state of which all equator state. Brazil, for example. this Samba Country on file the sun energy conversion success in sugar. Now, Brazil has yielded Bioetanol sold by US$ 25 per barrel. " There is a telling theory, later this world when pot is clean petroleum, its(the soil;land;ground will be divided two. Soil area of fertility for food, soil;land;ground is not productive for fuel through biodiesel, bioetanol, and others," papar Triharyo. Out of 13 million hektare dry farming in all fatherland, less than 10% which has and will be used.

This irony, because growth of distance tree exactly perfect if planted in dry farming. If Indonesia has just exploited less than 10%, signs has not optimal of dry farming exploiting. Now, said Triharyo, there is three institutes planting distance. Firstly, plantation property of PT Industrial Engineering and Institut Teknologi Bandung ( ITB) location in West Nusa Tenggara ( NTB) with a width of 12 ha with 30 thousand trees. Second, plantation property of PT Energy Alternative Of Indonesia ( there is 48 thousand trees). Third, Department of Agriculture ( 3 thousand trees) in East Nusa Tenggara ( NTT).

Besides, PT Eagle Nusantara Indonesia ( RNI) also plans plants fence distance in 2000-2500 ha hairless farm in coming Purwakarta, Oktober. Before all, RNI has planted in Indramayu with a width of 850 ha. In Bireun, Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam, ITB, INSTITUT PERTANIAN BOGOR ( IPB), and Departemen Sosial ( Depsos) cooperates animates 400 ha area of stall. Three months again, said Oceanic Professor and Perikanan IPB Rohmin Dahuri, result of distance tree conducting has been enjoyed.

Diesel fuel yielded will fulfill requirement of 200 ships, one ice plants, one cool storage, and one power station units of diesel energy. " Which more beautiful for fisherman. The Price Rp 2.000-2.500 per litre. Actually Rp 1500 returning to s(he is because distance managed from core factory bought from they," explains Rohmin. According to calculation PT Industrial Engineering, out of three million ha dry farming will be yielded 92 thousand diesel fuel barrels per day. To fulfill the farm is required [by] around 7,5 seed billions. If(when from all desert with a width of 13 million ha is planted fence distance, diesel fuel yielded more than 400 thousand barrels, Even have been planted in some places, distance conducting has not been co-ordinated nationally. Ironic this, remembers level of potency rear his(its.

Imagines, pilot project in NTB and Cilacap ( Central Java), said Tutik Herlina Mahendrato, business manager PT Industrial Engineering, have been peeped at a number of investors. At the time of at the same, PT Energy Alternative Of Indonesia has developed biodiesel fruit of distance into industrial scale. a factory with capacities produce of 1000 litres solar/hari, now stands up in Tanjung Priok, Jakarta Utara. Product biodiesel have been sold to entrepreneur of Japan, and a number of local SPBU.

National Movement There is many considerations makes biodiesel as national project. Besides business potency, also complete having immeasurable constraint rear his(its. There must be which able to answer why 13 million ha dry farming se-Indonesia is not tilled properly. Farms which spread over in Sumatra region, Nusa Tenggara, Sulawesi, Java part of south, and Papua is let layed.

Its(the chance doesn't differ from malefactor which bes awaiting doom. " According to me, government must take initiative," says Rohmin. Whereas Triharyo tells, president must soon releases special regulation. All Department must be condition to support and campaigns making and usage biodiesel.

Forum Chief Biodiesel Indonesia ( FBI) Tatang Soerawidjaja, highlights communications each institution. Expansion of biodiesel impressed road(street x'self because communicationses between expert, industrialist, and government has not run. But its(the profit, Pertamina as personification of government has exposed x'self. " If(When Pertamina has played hence expansion of biodiesel have been there is no problem again," specifically.

Jatropha curcas

fence pageant ( Jatropha curcas L., Euphorbiaceae) be wood bush plant which many found in tropic area. This plant recognized hardly drought resistance and easy to be multiplied with cutting. Although has is old known as curative material and poison, now s(he more and more gets attention as source of biofuel for diesel engine because its(the seed oil content. Role that is somewhat similar have been long enough been played by nearness consanquinity, tree distance ( Ricinus communis), which its(the seed yielding mixture oil for Iubricant.

Based on observation to variance in nature, this plant believed comes from Middle America, precisely in part of Mexico south, though is found also variance that is enough height in area Amazon. Spreading to African and Asia is anticipated done by the explorers Portugis and Spanyol based on evidence in the form of local name.

Ability to be multiplied in klonal causes variety of this plant not too big. Even though, because s(he is be including crossfertilization plant hence easy to happened recombination of character bringing to variance level that is enough is height.

Seed ( with cochlea) fence distance contains 20-40% vegetable oil, but part of seed core ( seed without cochlea) can contain 45-60% harsh oil. Based on analysis to composition of fatty acid out of 11 provenans fence distance, known that dominant fatty acid is oleic acid, linoleic acid, stearic acid, and Palmitic acid. composition of Oleic Acid and linoleic acid varies, while two remaining fatty acids, coincidence is saturate fatty acid, stays at composition that is permanent relative ( Heller 1996).

Fence distance looked into to draws as source of biodiesel because its(the high oil content, competition doesn't for other exploiting ( for example if it is compared to coconut sawit or sugar cane), and has a real interesting agronomy characteristic.
