Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology

Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel industry. BNE’s objective is to develop a sustainable and lucrative biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current technology advances, refining processes and innovative minds to develop sustainable and profitable biodiesel production centers. BNE supplies guidance and services to businesses and communities in their endeavors to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and knowledge BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the eco-friendly energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained an unique 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 utilized, allowing the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to customize the procedure continually, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than altering batch dishes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective process. The process also permits a decrease in capital cost of approximately 40% and a reduction in operating expense through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These benefits of the technology have actually been verified through a 3rd party assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has actually been thoroughly evaluated at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. from Europe as well as the USA have been demonstrated, both individually along with blends.

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high concern for BNE, and basic to our worldwide expansion 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 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 facility exhibits the revolutionary technology of BNE and production procedure that utilized several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and lucrative biodiesel production.

BNE’s personnel will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical procedure specialist will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance computations and develop the chemical procedure for innovative feedstocks.
