Africa Biofuel and Emission Reduction Company - Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania

Africa Biofuel is revolutionizing the African biofuel industry by utilizing the indigenous Croton Nut tree. By planting 12 million trees on under-utilized land, Africa Biofuel is able to extract pure plant oil from the seeds of these trees, which can replace up to 10% of the current Tanzanian and Kenyan diesel imports at a competitive price. This green fuel is not only beneficial for the power hungry mining industry, but also helps to reduce CO2 emissions and create more than 1,000 rural jobs.

Dr. Lenard Milich, one of Africa Biofuel's founders, has conducted research that proves the croton nut can be used as a diesel generator fuel when husked, crushed and filtered into pure plant oil. Additionally, the croton nut is indigenous to East Africa and has a much higher yield per hectare
