1 Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology

Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and lucrative biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE provides guidance and options to businesses and communities in their ventures to develop brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and competence BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the sustainable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually acquired a distinct technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks might be used, allowing the least expensive cost feedstocks to be used. The ability to the process continuously, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the process instead of changing batch dishes, makes it a highly versatile and more efficient procedure. The procedure also enables a decrease in capital cost of up to 40% and a reduction in running cost through lower energy expense of approximately 30%. These advantages of the technology have been validated through a 3rd celebration assessment 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 actually been shown, both separately as well as blends.

Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high concern for BNE, and fundamental to our worldwide expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a 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 carry out extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from conceptualization, development, building to management. This center exemplifies the revolutionary technology of BNE and production process that used several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical procedure specialist will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance computations and design the chemical procedure for advanced feedstocks.
