1 Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Laura Kraker edited this page 3 months ago


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 integrates the current innovation advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE supplies guidance and solutions to services and communities in their ventures to establish brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and knowledge BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has gotten an unique innovation 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, allowing the most affordable cost feedstocks to be used. The capability to modify the procedure continually, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the process rather than changing batch recipes, makes it a highly versatile and more efficient procedure. The process also allows a decrease in capital expense of as much as 40% and a decrease in operating expense through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These benefits of the technology have actually been validated through a 3rd party assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB innovation has actually been extensively checked at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe in addition to the USA have been demonstrated, both separately along with blends.

Developing and improving the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and fundamental to our international expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center located beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to show future feedstock processing and perform extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from concept, development, building and construction to management. This center exhibits the revolutionary technology of BNE and production procedure that used numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical procedure expert will be brought on board to perform mass and calculations and design the chemical procedure for innovative feedstocks.
