Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to produce a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the newest innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE supplies assistance and solutions to businesses and communities in their ventures to develop brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and competence BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.


Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has acquired a distinct innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, permitting the lowest cost feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to modify the procedure continuously, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the process rather than altering batch dishes, makes it an extremely flexible and more efficient process. The process likewise allows a decrease in capital expense of up to 40% and a reduction in operating expense through lower energy expense of up to 30%. These advantages of the innovation have been confirmed through a 3rd party evaluation 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 enhancing the technology 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 beside the very 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, building and construction to management. This center exhibits the innovative technology of BNE and production process that used several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.


BNE's personnel will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process specialist will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and design the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
