Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to create a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current innovation advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and lucrative biodiesel production centers. BNE provides guidance and solutions to businesses and neighborhoods in their endeavors to develop brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and know-how BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has gotten a special innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, enabling the least expensive cost feedstocks to be used. The capability to customize the process constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch dishes, makes it an extremely flexible and more efficient process. The procedure also permits a decrease in capital expense of as much as 40% and a reduction in operating cost through lower energy expense of up to 30%. These advantages of the technology have been validated through a 3rd celebration assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB innovation has actually been extensively evaluated at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. from Europe as well as the USA have actually been shown, both individually in addition to blends.

Developing and improving the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and essential to our global growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center located next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to show future feedstock processing and carry out substantial fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

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

BNE's staff will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical process specialist will be employed to perform mass and energy balance calculations and design the chemical process for advanced feedstocks.
