ABSTRACT Petroleum energy sources are about to diminution and polluting environment. Biodiesel is one of the sources that can assume an important energy source for future, particularly in automotive industries, as a substitute for diesel fuel. Jatropha is viewed as extraordinary compared to other choices for biodiesel generation with respect to properties of the fuel, characteristics of emissions. Equally, Jatropha biodiesel is greater environment-friendly because it gives comparatively fewer emissions. In this study. Jatropha as a fuel reveals that the following exhaust emissions are decreased, HC by 44%–68%, CO by 48%–72%, CO2 by 52%–78%, and smoke by 49%–73%, however, NOx emission is increased from 6% to 26%. In any case, the imminent of the Jatropha biodiesel will likewise rely on the competency of biodiesel production with suitable technologies and cost benefits.
