Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and lucrative biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most recent technology advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and successful biodiesel production centers. BNE provides guidance and services to organizations and communities in their endeavors to establish brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and expertise BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the eco-friendly energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained a distinct innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks might be utilized, permitting the most affordable expense feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the process continuously, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the process instead of changing batch recipes, makes it an extremely versatile and more effective procedure. The process likewise allows a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a reduction in running cost through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These advantages of the innovation have been validated through a 3rd celebration evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has been extensively checked at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe in addition to the USA have been shown, both separately as well as blends.

Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high top priority for BNE, and essential to our worldwide growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be a new Innovation Center located beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability 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, advancement, building to management. This facility exhibits the advanced innovation of BNE and production procedure that made use of numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and successful biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical procedure professional will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical procedure for advanced feedstocks.
