Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to develop a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent innovation advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and successful biodiesel production facilities. BNE offers assistance and solutions to organizations and neighborhoods in their undertakings to develop brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and know-how BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually acquired a distinct technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks might be used, permitting the most affordable expense to be used. The capability to modify the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch recipes, makes it a highly flexible and more efficient procedure. The process also permits a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These advantages of the technology have actually been verified through a 3rd celebration evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB innovation has been extensively evaluated at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe as well as the USA have been shown, both individually as well as blends.

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high concern for BNE, and basic to our global expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-new Innovation Center situated next to the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to show future feedstock processing and perform comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from conceptualization, development, construction to management. This center exhibits the innovative technology of BNE and production process that utilized multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and successful biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical procedure expert will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance computations and create the chemical process for innovative feedstocks.
