Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to produce a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the current innovation advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE offers assistance and options to services and neighborhoods in their endeavors to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and rewarding. Through its work and expertise BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the sustainable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained a distinct technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple may be used, permitting the least expensive expense feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to customize the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than changing batch recipes, makes it an extremely versatile and more efficient process. The process also permits a reduction in capital expense of approximately 40% and a reduction in running cost through lower energy cost of as much as 30%. These benefits of the technology have been confirmed through a 3rd celebration assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has been extensively tested 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 priority for BNE, and essential to our global growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center located beside the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to show future feedstock processing and carry out extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, development, building to management. This facility exhibits the innovative innovation of BNE and production procedure that utilized multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and successful biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical process expert will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical process for innovative feedstocks.
