Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to produce a sustainable and successful biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the newest innovation advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and profitable biodiesel production facilities. BNE supplies guidance and services to businesses and communities in their ventures to develop new biodiesel production facilities or facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and competence BNE, identifies 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 continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be used, allowing the lowest cost feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to customize the process constantly, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch dishes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective procedure. The procedure likewise permits a reduction in capital cost of approximately 40% and a decrease in running expense through lower energy expense of up to 30%. These benefits of the innovation have actually been validated through a 3rd party evaluation completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB innovation has been extensively checked at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have been shown, both individually as well as blends.

Developing and improving the technology is a high priority for BNE, and fundamental to our global expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center located next to the 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, advancement, building and construction to management. This center exhibits the advanced technology of BNE and production process that used several 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 professional will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance calculations and create the chemical process for advanced feedstocks.
