Biodiesel from Radish Oil – Radish Oil as Biofuel
Wild radish can contain up to 48% oil and its oil is unsuitable for human consumption. This could hence make an interesting biodiesel candidate. Wild radish has adapted itself to be a very resilient weed and possesses a hardy nature with good drought tolerance. However, it is unlikely to become a mainstream biodiesel feedstock.

Radish oil - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Radish oil is a pressed seed oil, extracted from the seeds of the Raphanus sativus. Oilseed radish is a plant of the mustard family (Brassicaceae) that grows well in cool climates. Wild radish seeds contain up to 48% oil content. The oil is not suitable for human consumption but has promise as a source of biofuel.

About Oilgae - Oilgae - Oil & Biodiesel from Algae
has a focus on biodiesel production from algae while also discussing
alternative energy in general. Algae present an exciting possibility as a
feedstock for biodiesel, and when you realise that oil was originally
formed from algae - among others - you think "Hey! Why not oil
again from algae!"
