1 Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Cyrus Hardwick edited this page 4 days ago


Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the current innovation advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE provides guidance and solutions to companies and communities in their endeavors to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and proficiency BNE, itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually acquired 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 might be used, enabling the least expensive cost feedstocks to be used. The ability to modify the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the process rather than changing batch dishes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective procedure. The process likewise enables a decrease in capital expense of up to 40% and a decrease in operating expense through lower energy expense of up to 30%. These advantages of the technology have actually been confirmed through a 3rd party evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the innovation is a high top priority for BNE, and basic to our global growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center situated 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 experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, advancement, building and construction to management. This facility exemplifies the revolutionary technology of BNE and production process that utilized multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process expert will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance calculations and develop the chemical procedure for advanced feedstocks.
