Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to develop a sustainable and lucrative biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most current technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to develop sustainable and lucrative biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides assistance and options to businesses and neighborhoods in their endeavors to establish brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and proficiency BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has obtained a distinct technology 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 capability to modify the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the process instead of changing batch recipes, makes it an extremely flexible and more efficient process. The procedure also permits a reduction in capital cost of approximately 40% and a reduction in operating cost through lower energy cost of up to 30%. These advantages of the innovation have been verified through a 3rd celebration assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high concern for BNE, and essential to our worldwide expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center situated beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability 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, advancement, building and construction to management. This center exemplifies the innovative technology of BNE and production process that made use of numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and rewarding biodiesel production.

BNE's staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical procedure expert will be brought on board to perform mass and estimations and create the chemical process for advanced feedstocks.
