Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to produce a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most current innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and successful biodiesel production centers. BNE offers assistance and solutions to companies and neighborhoods in their ventures to develop brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and proficiency BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has gotten a distinct innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks might be used, allowing the least expensive expense feedstocks to be used. The ability to modify the process continuously, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than altering batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective process. The procedure likewise permits a reduction in capital cost of as much as 40% and a reduction in running expense through lower energy expense of as much as 30%. These benefits of the technology have actually been confirmed through a 3rd celebration assessment by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB innovation has actually been extensively evaluated at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have been demonstrated, both individually as well as blends.

Developing and improving the technology is a high top priority for BNE, and fundamental to our international expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-new Innovation Center located beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and carry out substantial fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from concept, advancement, building to management. This center exemplifies the advanced technology of BNE and production process that used numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and lucrative biodiesel production.

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