Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the current innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE offers assistance and solutions to companies and communities in their endeavors to develop brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and rewarding. Through its work and knowledge BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually acquired a special innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks might be used, permitting the least expensive expense feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the process constantly, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the process instead of changing batch dishes, makes it an extremely flexible and more effective process. The process also permits a reduction in capital cost of as much as 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy cost of as much as 30%. These benefits of the innovation have actually been verified through a 3rd party assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has actually been extensively evaluated at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have been shown, both individually along with blends.

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high top priority for BNE, and essential to our worldwide growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-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 comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from conceptualization, development, construction to management. This center exhibits the advanced innovation of BNE and production procedure that used several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and rewarding biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process expert will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
