Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and profitable biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the newest innovation advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and profitable biodiesel production centers. BNE provides guidance and options to businesses and communities in their ventures to develop 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 sustainable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained a distinct 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 used, allowing the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to modify the procedure continually, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than changing batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective process. The procedure also permits a decrease in capital expense of as much as 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These advantages of the innovation have actually been verified through a 3rd celebration evaluation completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the innovation is a high concern for BNE, and essential to our international expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center located beside the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability 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 conceptualization, development, construction to management. This facility exemplifies the revolutionary technology of BNE and production procedure that used multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and lucrative biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical process specialist will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance calculations and create the chemical procedure for advanced feedstocks.
