Abdulrahman bin Nano-particles Metal Oxide Catalyst Faisal University, Dammam, SA Introduction Jojoba or Hohoba is called Simmondsia chinensis, also known as wild hazelnuts. It is a shrub, native to the southwest of North America (America and Mexico). It is grown on a commercial scale to produce Jojoba oil. Scientific name is Simmondsia chinensis of the family Simmondsiceae and the order Caryophyllaces. Jojoba plants are plants that tolerate harsh environmental conditions such as salinity, drought and high temperature, and showed clear adaptation to the dominant environmental conditions in Saudi Arabia. The strains that were planted either at King Faisal University, Hofuf, Ahssa or Al-Khalidiya Farm in Tabarka, Al-Quwaiyya, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, proved very successful in terms of adaptation and rapid vegetative growth. It gave a promising seed crop only two years after planting, with minimal care, water and nutrients requirements. This indicates that this plant is suitable for the dominant climate in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, the possibility of growing it as a promising economic crop with multi-purpose, tolerant to heat-and water scarcity.
