1 Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Alysa Burgos edited this page 4 months ago


Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides assistance and solutions to organizations and communities in their undertakings to develop new facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and knowledge BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has obtained an unique technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, permitting the most affordable cost feedstocks to be used. The capability to modify the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than altering batch dishes, makes it an extremely flexible and more efficient procedure. The process also enables a decrease in capital cost of as much as 40% and a reduction in running cost through lower energy expense of up to 30%. These advantages of the technology have actually been verified through a 3rd celebration evaluation completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB innovation has actually been thoroughly 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 top priority for BNE, and fundamental to our international expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center situated beside the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to show future feedstock processing and carry out substantial fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, advancement, building to management. This facility exemplifies the advanced innovation of BNE and production process that utilized multiple 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 process expert will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and develop the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
