Out of various no edible oil resources, jatropha curcas oil is considered as a promising alternate fuel for CI engines. The present study describes the process used for production of degummed jatropha oil (DGJO) and jatropha methyl ester (JBD) The important fuel properties of DGJO and JBD were determined and compared with fossil diesel and jatropha oil. The degumming and trans esterification process has reduced the viscosity by 19.8% and 74.8% respectively. The heating of degummed oil at 70 0C reduce the viscosity by 6.8 times when compared with viscosity at 10 0C. Further the degummed oil at 70 0C becomes viscous at par with fossil diesel, hence could be used directly in IC engines.
