It is also heard of to heat the water to steam which

MAHUA OIL Mahua Oil (MO Oil) is an underutilized non-edible vegetable oil‚ which is available in large quantities in India. The fuel properties of the MO Oil biodiesel were found to be within the limits of biodiesel specifications of many countries. Fuel properties of diesel‚ mahua oil and blends are comparable. The calorific value of mahua oil was found as 96.30% on volume basis of diesel. It was found that mahua could be easily substituted up to 20% in diesel without any significant difference
