Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology

Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel market. BNE’s mission is to create a sustainable and lucrative biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and profitable biodiesel production centers. BNE offers assistance and options to services and neighborhoods in their to establish new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and expertise BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually gotten an unique technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, permitting the most affordable cost feedstocks to be used. The capability to customize the process constantly, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the process instead of altering batch recipes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective process. The process likewise allows a decrease in capital cost of approximately 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy cost of up to 30%. These benefits of the innovation have been validated through a 3rd party assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high top priority for BNE, and fundamental to our global growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-new Innovation Center located beside the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to show 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, development, construction to management. This facility exemplifies the innovative innovation of BNE and production process that made use of several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.

BNE’s staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process professional will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance calculations and design the chemical process for innovative feedstocks.
