Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and successful biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and lucrative biodiesel production centers. BNE provides guidance and options to organizations and neighborhoods in their endeavors to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and rewarding. Through its work and proficiency BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the sustainable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has acquired a special technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks might be utilized, permitting the least expensive expense feedstocks to be used. The capability to customize the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch dishes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective process. The process also enables a reduction in capital cost of as much as 40% and a decrease in running expense through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These benefits of the innovation have been validated through a 3rd party assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the technology is a high priority for BNE, and basic to our international expansion 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 demonstrate future feedstock and perform substantial fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, development, building to management. This facility exhibits the innovative innovation of BNE and production procedure that made use of multiple 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 process expert will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance calculations and develop the chemical procedure for advanced feedstocks.
