Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel industry. BNE’s objective is to create a sustainable and lucrative biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most recent technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and successful facilities. BNE supplies assistance and options to companies and neighborhoods in their undertakings to develop new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and proficiency BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has obtained an unique innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, allowing the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to customize the process continuously, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the process rather than changing batch dishes, makes it an extremely flexible and more effective procedure. The process likewise allows a decrease in capital cost of approximately 40% and a reduction in operating expense through lower energy expense of approximately 30%. These benefits of the innovation have actually been verified through a 3rd party evaluation completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the technology is a high concern for BNE, and essential to our international growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing 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 experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, development, building to management. This center exhibits the innovative innovation of BNE and production procedure that made use of numerous 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 expert will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance computations and design the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
