Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the current technology advances, refining processes and innovative minds to develop sustainable and successful biodiesel production facilities. BNE offers guidance and options to companies and communities in their ventures to develop brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and knowledge BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the eco-friendly energy field.

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

The QSB technology has actually been thoroughly checked 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 technology is a high top priority for BNE, and basic to our worldwide growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center situated next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to show 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 conceptualization, advancement, construction to management. This center exhibits the innovative technology of BNE and production procedure that used 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 professional will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance calculations and design the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
