Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to develop a sustainable and successful biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current innovation advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides assistance and options to organizations and neighborhoods in their endeavors to establish brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and rewarding. Through its work and expertise BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has gotten a 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, allowing the lowest expense feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to customize the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective process. The process likewise enables a decrease in capital cost of up to 40% and a decrease in running expense through lower energy expense of approximately 30%. These advantages of the technology have been verified through a 3rd party evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB innovation has been thoroughly checked at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have actually been shown, both separately 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 located next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to show future feedstock processing and perform extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, advancement, construction to management. This center exhibits the advanced innovation of BNE and production process that utilized numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process expert will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
