Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and profitable biodiesel production facilities. BNE supplies guidance and options to businesses and communities in their endeavors to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and rewarding. Through its work and expertise BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the renewable resource 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 vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be used, permitting the most affordable cost feedstocks to be used. The ability to modify the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch recipes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective procedure. The process likewise enables a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a decrease in operating expense through lower energy cost of up to 30%. These advantages of the technology have been verified through a 3rd celebration evaluation completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high concern for BNE, and fundamental to our worldwide expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center situated next to the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and perform comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, development, building to management. This facility exemplifies the revolutionary technology of BNE and production process that used numerous 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 process specialist will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance computations and develop the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
