Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE provides guidance and services to organizations and neighborhoods in their ventures to develop new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and know-how BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained a distinct 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 cost feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the procedure continuously, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than changing batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective procedure. The process likewise enables a decrease in capital expense of as much as 40% and a decrease in running cost through lower energy cost of up to 30%. These benefits of the innovation have actually been validated through a 3rd party assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and basic to our international growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center situated next to the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and carry out substantial fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

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

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