Euphorbia lathyris L.
Euphorbia lathyris L. is
an ideal energy plant.
Seed oil can be used as
biodiesel crude oil; one
hectare of land can
produce 25–125 barrels
of oil
It is widely distributed
or cultivated in Europe,
North Africa, Central
Asia, East Asia and
North and South
America, produced in
Jilin, Liaoning, Inner
Mongolia, Hubei,
Hunan, Guangxi,
Sichuan, Guizhou,
Yunnan, Tibet and then
Euphorbia tirucalli
The Euphorbia tirucalli
is similar to the
composition of
petroleum. It is rich in
12 kinds of
hydrocarbons, and the
milk is rich in
hydrocarbons such as
olefins, hydrazines,
sterols and the like. It
can be directly or mixed
with other substances
to form crude oil
It is native to the
Mediterranean coast of
Africa, and distributed
in Hong Kong,
Taiwan’s Penghu
Islands, Hainan, the
United States,
Malaysia, India, the
United Kingdom and
France now
Hevea brasiliensis
(Willd. ex A. Juss.)
Muell. Arg
Natural rubber is
widely used in
industrial, national
defense, transportation,
medical health fields
and daily life because
of its strong elasticity
and good insulation.
Seed oil is the raw
material for making
paints and soaps. The
rubber husk can
produce activated
carbon, furfural and
then
It is mainly distributed
in Southeast Asian
countries, including
Malaysia, Indonesia,
Thailand, Sri Lanka
and India, the rubber
production area and
rubber production
accounted for 90% of
the world. China’s
gum-coating areas are
mainly distributed in
Hainan, Guangdong,
Guangxi, Fujian and
Yunnan
Xanthium
Fructus Xanthii
Seeds can be pressed
for oil, Fructus Xanthii
and Camellia oleifera
Abel are similar. They
can be mixed with tung
oil paint or used as raw
materials for ink, soap,
linoleum, hardened oil
and lubricating oil
It is widely distributed
in the plains, hills, low
mountains, wilderness
roads and fields on the
northeastern, north,
east, south, northwest
and southwestern
provinces of China
