Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the current technology advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE supplies guidance and options to companies and neighborhoods in their undertakings 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 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 may be utilized, enabling the lowest cost to be used. The capability to modify the procedure continually, as the feedstocks change by modulating the other reactants to the process rather than altering batch recipes, makes it an extremely versatile and more efficient procedure. The procedure also enables a reduction in capital expense of approximately 40% and a decrease in running cost through lower energy expense of up to 30%. These benefits of the technology have actually been verified through a 3rd celebration evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and basic to our global expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center located beside 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 speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, development, construction to management. This center exhibits the revolutionary innovation of BNE and production procedure that used several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and lucrative biodiesel production.

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