Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most recent innovation advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE provides assistance and options to companies and neighborhoods in their endeavors to establish brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and knowledge BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has gotten a special technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks may be used, enabling the most affordable cost feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to modify the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective process. The procedure also permits a decrease in capital expense of approximately 40% and a decrease in running cost through lower energy cost of up to 30%. These advantages of the innovation have been verified through a 3rd celebration evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has been thoroughly checked at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe as well as the USA have been shown, both separately as well as blends.

Developing and improving the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and essential to our worldwide growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing 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 perform extensive fuel for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, advancement, construction to management. This center exhibits the innovative 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 innovation program. A senior chemical process specialist will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance computations and develop the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
