1 Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Shirley Cuthbertson edited this page 7 days ago


Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to produce a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the newest technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and profitable biodiesel production centers. BNE supplies assistance and services to businesses and neighborhoods in their undertakings to establish brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and proficiency BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually acquired a special innovation 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 utilized. The capability to customize the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch dishes, makes it an extremely versatile and more efficient process. The procedure also allows a reduction in capital expense of as much as 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy expense of as much as 30%. These benefits of the technology have been confirmed through a 3rd celebration evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and essential to our international growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center located beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and carry out extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, advancement, building and construction to management. This facility exemplifies the innovative technology of BNE and production procedure that used multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high and successful biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical process specialist will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical procedure for advanced feedstocks.
