Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to produce a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent innovation advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides assistance and options to services and communities in their undertakings to establish new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and knowledge BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually acquired a special technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. feedstocks may be utilized, enabling the most affordable cost feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the process constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch recipes, makes it an extremely versatile and more efficient procedure. The procedure likewise allows a decrease in capital expense of as much as 40% and a decrease in running expense through lower energy expense of approximately 30%. These benefits of the technology have been confirmed through a 3rd party evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has actually been thoroughly evaluated at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have been demonstrated, both separately in addition to blends.

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high priority for BNE, and basic to our global growth 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 perform comprehensive 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 advanced innovation of BNE and production procedure that made use of several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and rewarding biodiesel production.

BNE's staff will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical process expert will be employed to perform mass and energy balance estimations and develop the chemical procedure for sophisticated feedstocks.
