BioJet, mass camelina biofuel production in five years

BioJet Corp. and Great Plains Oil & Exploration yesterday announced an agreement to produce renewable jet fuel through joint development of integrated camelina cultivation and associated refinery projects in the US, Europe, South America and Asia. The companies said that within five years, camelina production from currently planned projects will yield some 200 million gal. per year of renewable jet fuel along with other products. Great Plains said it is the largest camelina producer in the world. BioJet already is working on a jatropha-based fuel and said its goal is to produce 20 million barrels of biofuel per year by 2020.
