Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to create a sustainable and successful biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the most current technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and lucrative biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides assistance and services to services and communities in their ventures to establish brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and competence BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the eco-friendly energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained a special technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be used, allowing the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to customize the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective procedure. The procedure also permits a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a decrease in operating expense through lower energy cost of up to 30%. These advantages of the innovation have been verified through a 3rd party assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the innovation is a high top priority for BNE, and fundamental to our worldwide growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center located beside the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and carry out comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, development, building to management. This facility exhibits the advanced innovation of BNE and production process that used numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and successful biodiesel production.

BNE's staff will increase to support this innovation program. A process specialist will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance computations and develop the chemical procedure for sophisticated feedstocks.
