Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and lucrative biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent technology advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and successful biodiesel production facilities. BNE supplies guidance and solutions to services and communities in their ventures to establish brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and expertise BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the sustainable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has gotten a distinct innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be used, enabling the most affordable cost feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the process constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than changing batch recipes, makes it an extremely flexible and more efficient process. The process likewise enables a decrease in capital cost of up to 40% and a decrease in running expense through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These benefits of the technology have been confirmed through a 3rd completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high top priority for BNE, and basic to our worldwide expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-new Innovation Center situated next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to show future feedstock processing and perform comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from conceptualization, development, building and construction to management. This facility exemplifies the advanced innovation of BNE and production procedure that utilized numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and rewarding biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process expert will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical procedure for sophisticated feedstocks.
