Biodiesel is a renewable fuel that can be produced from vegetable oils, animal fats, and recycled cooking oil. It is cleaner burning and more environmentally friendly than petroleum diesel. Pakistan aims to replace 5% of its diesel consumption with biodiesel by 2015 and 10% by 2025 in order to reduce pollution, promote the use of domestic renewable resources, and develop its biodiesel industry. Pakistan State Oil, the largest fuel supplier, has conducted successful biodiesel production trials and aims to significantly participate in blending biodiesel with petroleum diesel to meet the country's targets.

Biodiesel in pakistan
Biodiesel is a clean-burning alternative to petroleum diesel made from domestic, renewable resources such as vegetable oils, recycled cooking oil and animal fats.
 Biodiesel is a renewable, environmentally  friendly substitute for petro-diesel fuel.  It is produced from edible & non-edible oils, and animal fats.  Normally Biodiesel blends can be used in diesel engines without any alteration.
EDIBLE OIL SOURCES Sunflower Soybean (USA) Corn Rapeseed Others NON-EDIBLE OIL SOURCES Pongamia (Sukh Chein) Jojoba Castor Jatropha Others
 Pakistan State Oil has been fuelling the needs of the nation.  Currently the Company is engaged in the marketing and distribution of various POL products including Motor Gasoline (Mogas), High Speed Diesel (HSD), Furnace Oil (FO), Jet Fuel (JP-1), Kerosene, CNG, LPG, Petrochemicals and Lubricants.  PSO has the most wide-spread retail network in the country with over 3,500 retail outlets and is also the major fuel supplier to aviation, railways, power projects, armed forces, marine and agriculture sectors.
 Non-edible plant seeds as feed stock  Avoidance of competition with Food Crops  Utilization of country’s ample Marginal /Barren land  Conserving agricultural Water Resources.  Produce biodiesel at minimum possible cost
 PSO’s ultimate goal is to significantly participate in blending 10% of Country’s total petro-diesel consumption (8 million tones) with biodiesel; in line with GoP’s directives.
 Total consumption of diesel per year: 8 M tons  10% of requirement (Biodiesel) per year: 800 K tons  Land requirement (800 shrubs / acre): 812500 Acres 

Biodiesel in pakistan
 Pakistan’s biodiesel Industry is still in its infancy. The government of Pakistan’s ‘Alternative Energy Development Board’ (AEDB) is very active in encouraging biodiesel utilization. The AEDB has worked on the sector’s development on its own as well as in collaboration with Pakistan State Oil, the largest producer of petroleum products.  In a similar fashion, Pakistan State Oil has also conducted successful trials of biodiesel production at its test farm and biodiesel plant.  The Pakistan Agricultural Research Council (PARC) has identified areas for suitable jatropha cultivation. There are no reports of large scale feedstock plantations or biodiesel production at this point in time, but the successful execution of a trial project by PSO and other stakeholders has laid the groundwork for the establishment of a larger industry in the near future.
 The Pakistan government is planning to replace 5% of its yearly diesel consumption with biodiesel by 2015 and to raise the figure to10% by 2025  Remove the sales tax and petroleum level on biodiesel products to encourage the demand, thereby stimulating the growth in the biodiesel Industry.  Create and empower environmental groups to construct political support in favor of widespread adoption of alternative fuels.  Work in conjunction with the other state to create a more uniform distribution of biodiesel feedstock production
 Ministry of Water & Power in coordination with AEDB shall be the apex coordinating and facilitating body for the National Bio-Diesel Programme.  Gradual introduction of bio-diesel fuel blends with petroleum diesel so as to achieve a minimum share of 5% by volume of the total Diesel consumption in the country by the year 2015 and 10% by 2025.  Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) to purchase Bio-Diesel (B-100) from Bio-Diesel manufacturers; and sell this Bio-Diesel blended with Petroleum Diesel (starting with B-5) at their points of sale.  Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Resources shall come up with the fuel quality standards for B-100 and blends up to B-20.
 All imported plant, machinery, equipment and specific items used in the production of Biodiesel shall be exempted from Customs Duty, Income Tax and Sales Tax.  Pilot project would be scaled up after success.  Promote productive use of energy for income generation activities.
 The governments of Pakistan recommended to create a national biodiesel mission that oversees the development of this industry.  Pakistan should increase the environmental awareness by creating groups that articulate environmental concerns in the existing political framework.  The governments should provide a tax incentive to biodiesel consumers. The fuel tax should be exempted for biodiesel.  Pakistan should plan and cultivate large scale plantations of jojoba a biodiesel crop that is resistant to drought and excessively high temperatures. This would reduce the risks associated with innovation and would create agricultural jobs in rural areas.
Thank You Mohsin Muhammad
