Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to produce a sustainable and profitable biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most recent technology advances, refining processes and innovative minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE supplies assistance and services to businesses and communities in their ventures to develop brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and knowledge BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained an unique technology for fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks might be utilized, permitting the most affordable expense feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the procedure continually, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the process rather than changing batch recipes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective procedure. The procedure also allows a reduction in capital cost of as much as 40% and a reduction in operating cost through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These benefits of the technology have actually been validated through a 3rd party assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the innovation is a high top priority for BNE, and fundamental to our worldwide expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center situated beside the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and perform extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

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

BNE's staff will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical procedure expert will be employed to perform mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical procedure for innovative feedstocks.
