Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to produce a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and successful biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides guidance and solutions to organizations and neighborhoods in their undertakings to establish new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and knowledge BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually gotten a special innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, enabling the most affordable expense feedstocks to be used. The to customize the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks change by modulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch recipes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective process. The process also enables a decrease in capital cost of up to 40% and a reduction in running expense through lower energy cost of as much as 30%. These advantages of the innovation have been verified through a 3rd party evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has actually been extensively tested at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have been demonstrated, both separately as well as blends.

Developing and improving the innovation is a high top priority for BNE, and basic to our international growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center situated beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to show future feedstock processing and carry out extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from concept, development, construction to management. This facility exemplifies the advanced innovation of BNE and production process that utilized multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.

BNE's staff will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical process specialist will be employed to perform mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
