Recently one Indian Air Force An-32’ aircraft created history when it was a 10% blend of Indian bio-jet fuel. It took off from Leh’s Kushok Bakula Rimpochee airport. This was the first time that this mix was used in both the engines of an aircraft. This Biojet fuel was made from Jatropha oil which was taken from Chattisgarh Biodiesel Development Authority (CBDA). Then jatropha oil was processed at CSIR-IIP, Dehradun. The technology to produce bio-jet fuel was also developed by CSIR-IIP in 2013.
