Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the newest technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE offers and solutions to companies and communities in their undertakings to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and proficiency BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the eco-friendly energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has obtained an unique innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks might be utilized, enabling the least expensive expense feedstocks to be used. The capability to modify the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch dishes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective procedure. The process likewise allows a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a reduction in running expense through lower energy expense of as much as 30%. These advantages of the innovation have actually been verified through a 3rd celebration assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the technology is a high priority for BNE, and basic to our international growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-new Innovation Center located next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and perform substantial fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

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

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