4. Background to bio-oils
• Candlenut (Kemiri Sunan): yields a non-food vegetable oil; conservation plant
• Vegetable oils, including candlenut, are used as an ingredient or component in many
manufactured products (oleo-chemical industry).
• Extensive scientific studies have shown Candlenut oil viability.
• Candlenut outperforms Palm Oil on price and in various other respects.

6. Candlenut Characteristics
} Candlenut (Reutealis trisperma), known as
Philippine tung is a plant species of the family
Euphorbiaceae and of the monotypic genus
Reutealis. On The International Union for the
Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources
(IUCN) 2006 Red List, Candlenut is identified as a
Threatened Species and it is listed as Vulnerable
(VU A1cd v2.3). Currently it grows naturally in West
Java (Duke, 1983).
} Optimal climate for growth is any tropical/sub-
tropical area
} Grows at low to medium altitude; in West Java it is
found growing at an elevation of more than 700
meters
} Height can exceed 15 meters; longevity in excess of
75 years with a tight and wide canopy, creating an
umbrella effect reducing soil erosion during heavy
rainfalls

7. Candlenut Characteristics
The Sap from the tree can be Besides being used as bio-diesel it is also used
for various industrial products. Among others
used for skin disease treatment
are for varnish, paint, soap, linoleum, cloth oil,
(Burkill, 1966) resin, synthetic rubber, lubricant, abrasive and a
mixture for polisher, food and medicine
container protector, covering wire and other
metal surface as used in radio, radar, telephone
and telegraph equipment (Duke, 1978)
The tree can serve as a conservation
plant as well as producing an
alternative sustainable energy.
(Jamieson & McKinney, 1935)
Has a tight and wide
Canopy (Canopy.org)
Can be used as
1. Fertilizer (Vossen dan Umali, 2002)
3. Insecticide (Burkill, 1966)

8. Candlenut Development in Indonesia
} BHLI initiated candlenut research in 2006. Significant
research and planting has since been made together with
Government, local communities, and other social
organizations.
} Registration of local varieties, licensing and endorsement
from Government has been given to Candlenut:
} Registration of local Varieties è 18/PVL/2009
dated 25 May 2009
} Decision of Minister of Agriculture for accepting
Candlenut as one of 127 Commodities under
Agriculture Ministry è 3599/kpts/PD.310/10/2009
