Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to produce a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the latest innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE offers guidance and services to services and communities in their undertakings to develop new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and know-how BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has acquired a special technology 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 utilized, enabling the most affordable cost feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the procedure continuously, as the feedstocks change by modulating the other reactants to the process rather than altering batch recipes, makes it an extremely flexible and more effective procedure. The process likewise allows a reduction in capital cost of approximately 40% and a decrease in operating expense through lower energy expense of approximately 30%. These benefits of the innovation have actually been confirmed through a 3rd celebration evaluation by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high concern for BNE, and basic to our international expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center located next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and perform extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, development, construction to management. This center exemplifies the advanced innovation of BNE and production procedure that made use of multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and rewarding biodiesel production.

BNE's staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process specialist will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance calculations and design the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
