Company Description
Information-based Optimization of Jatropha Biomass Energy Production in the Frost- and Drought-prone Regions Of Botswana
Crops in Botswana grow gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon society based upon bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter season cold. It also has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold great guarantee as a biofuel. The objective of this task is to use these resources to develop jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high performance, as well as to develop approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a will assist to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the country’s own biological resources
A database of biological resource data connecting to jatropha curcas will be constructed and ideal varieties will be established. Moreover, in this arid area that goes through cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile with respect to climate change. The task will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
