Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to develop a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the current technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to develop sustainable and profitable biodiesel production facilities. BNE offers assistance and services to businesses and neighborhoods in their undertakings to establish brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and competence BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually gotten a distinct 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 used, enabling the lowest cost feedstocks to be used. The capability to customize the process continually, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the process instead of altering batch recipes, makes it an extremely flexible and more effective process. The procedure likewise allows a reduction in capital expense of up to 40% and a reduction in running expense through lower energy cost of as much as 30%. These benefits of the technology have actually been validated through a 3rd celebration assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the technology is a high top priority for BNE, and essential to our international expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center beside the very 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 experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, advancement, building to management. This center exemplifies the revolutionary innovation of BNE and production process that used multiple 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 specialist will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and develop the chemical process for innovative feedstocks.
