Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to create a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most current innovation advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE provides assistance and solutions to businesses and communities in their endeavors to develop new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and know-how BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually gotten an unique technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks might be used, enabling the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to customize the process constantly, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the process instead of altering batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective procedure. The procedure likewise permits a reduction in capital expense of as much as 40% and a reduction in operating cost through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These advantages of the innovation have been confirmed through a 3rd party assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high top priority for BNE, and fundamental to our global growth strategies. In order to 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 demonstrate 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 conceptualization, development, building and construction to management. This center exemplifies the revolutionary innovation of BNE and production procedure that utilized several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and successful biodiesel production.

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