Soybean oil weighs 7.6776 pounds per US gallon, or 0.92 kilogram per liter.
The price FOB port of shipment for one MT of Jatropha oil purpose seeds is around USD$100 - 120. The price for one MT of jatropha crude oil is around USD$ 700.
Jatropha oil itself is a substance. So not being a (pure) compund, it has no chemical formula. It might be toxic.There are tens of different formulas, because it's not a pure chemical by itself but a mixture. It is a non-food, biodiesel energy oil from pressed seeds (35% oil) of Jatropha curcas(plant family: Euphorbiaceae).
If we are talking about light sweet crude oil, a common grade of oil traded on the commodities market, it weighs roughly 7lbs per gallon. A common oil drum holds 55 gallons for a per drum, at a weight of 385lbs per drum. The "metric tonne", = 1000kg or 2,250lbs. The US uses the standard system who's term is also "ton" which equals 2,000lbs. So 2,250lbs / 385lbs= 5.844 drums per metric tonne or 2,000lbs/385=5.195 drums per standard ton.
281 US gallons are in in 1 tonne of IFO 380. IFO 380 has a typical density of 0.94 kg/l at 15°C The reciprocal of 0.94 (1/0.94) is 1.064 so now we can ask google to convert litres per kilogram to gallons per tonne by forming a query like this: "1.064 liters per kilogram in gallons per tonne"
Soybean oil weighs 7.6776 pounds per US gallon, or 0.92 kilogram per liter.
A 'tonne' is a metric measure equalling 1000 Kilograms as opposed to a 'ton' which equals 2000 pounds, so there are 1000 kilograms of olive oil in a tonne.
Depending on the quality of oil. 2,200 Imp gal. is 1 tonne, or 1,000 liter is 1 metric tonne. U.S gallon is slightly less then the imp gal. Ataf
Bio-pesticides are derived as residual bi-products after fermentation of the jatropha crude oil for biodiesel production

It depends on which LPFO you are talking about. This is because the density of the product determines its weight. For Nigerian LPFO, available from Nigerian Oil Services, the specific gravity of this D6, low pour fuel oil is about .9189 - .8397. That means it is lighter than water so it takes more of it to make a metric tonne. There 1000 liters of water in a metric tonne so you would divide 1000 by .85 (average) and you get about 1176 liters in a metric tonne for Nigerian LPFO. You can use this same formula if you have the specific gravity of the fuel you are trying to buy. I am assuming by the word tonne you meant metric ton because that is how it is sold, by the MT.
Jatropha oil itself is a substance. So not being a (pure) compund, it has no chemical formula. It might be toxic.There are tens of different formulas, because it's not a pure chemical by itself but a mixture. It is a non-food, biodiesel energy oil from pressed seeds (35% oil) of Jatropha curcas(plant family: Euphorbiaceae).
Jatropha curcas seeds have a high oil content that can be processed into biodiesel via transesterification. Jatropha will also grow in arid and/or depleted soil where other crops may not thrive.
The seeds oil
The density of jatropha oil as a biodiesel fuel is 0.92 grams per cubic centimeter. Therefore, one liter will mass 920 grams or 0.92 kilograms.
As liter is a measure of volume and metric tonne a measure of weight, the density of the material in question determines the amount 1 metric tonne can hold. Palm oil has the density of 0.89 Kg/L. A liquid of this density will have 1,123.59 liters in one Metric tonne.
Oh, for the love of units! A barrel is a unit of volume, and a metric tonne is a unit of weight. However, as given in Wikipedia for oil purposes, an approximate conversion is 1 tonne = 7.33 bbls. At 20 degrees API oil, the conversion is 1 tonne = 6.74 bbls and at 40 degrees, it would be 7.63 bbls. I used 1 tonne = 2204.6 pounds and the density of water = 62.4 lb/cu ft. In making calculations for Deepwater Horizon, I think 1 tonne = 7.33 bbl is adequate.
