  1. Biodiesel production from crude Jatropha curcas L. seed oil with a high content of free fatty acids: Bioresource Technology, Vol. 99, No. 6. (April 2008), pp. 1716-1721.A technique to produce biodiesel from crude Jatropha curcas seed oil (CJCO) having high free fatty acids (15%FFA) has been developed. The high FFA level of JCJO was reduced to less than 1% by a two-step pretreatment process. The first step was carried out with 0.60 w/w methanol-to-oi l ratio in the presence of 1% w/w H2SO4 as an acid catalyst in 1-h reaction at 50 °C. After the reaction, the mixture was allowed to settle for 2 h and the methanol-water mixture separated at the top layer was removed. The second step was transesterifie d using 0.24 w/w methanol to oil and 1.4% w/w NaOH to oil as alkaline catalyst to produce biodiesel at 65 °C. The final yield for methyl esters of fatty acids was achieved ca. 90% in 2 h.

  2. Extraction of oil from Jatropha curcas L. seed kernels by combination of ultrasonicatio n and aqueous enzymatic oil extraction: Bioresource Technology, Vol. 96, No. 1. (January 2005), pp. 121-123.Use of ultrasonicatio n as a pretreatment before aqueous oil extraction and aqueous enzymatic oil extraction was found to be useful in the case of extraction of oil from the seeds of Jatropha curcas L. The use of ultrasonicatio n for 10 min at pH 9.0 followed by aqueous oil extraction gave a yield of 67%. However, the maximum yield of 74% was obtained by ultrasonicatio n for 5 min followed by aqueous enzymatic oil extraction using an alkaline protease at pH 9.0. Use of ultrasonicatio n also resulted in reducing the process time from 18 to 6 h.

  3. Oil boom, a blessing for Mexico?: GeoJournal, Vol. 7, No. 3. (1 May 1983), pp. 229-246.The oil discoveries in Southern Mexico are now thought to be linked in one vast field a geological blessing that could catapult Mexico as the world's second largest oil producer. However, after six years of oil boom it is now clear that this does not mean, by itself, a blessing for Mexico. Current experience leaves no doubt that Mexico's problems can not be solved only by oil exports.
