Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology

Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel market. BNE’s mission is to create a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the current innovation advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE supplies assistance and options to services and communities in their ventures to establish new biodiesel production or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and know-how 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 constant biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be used, allowing the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to customize the process constantly, as the feedstocks change by modulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more efficient procedure. The process likewise enables a reduction in capital expense of as much as 40% and a decrease in operating expense through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These advantages of the technology have been validated through a 3rd party assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and basic to our worldwide growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center situated 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, development, building and construction to management. This facility exhibits 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 staff will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical process expert will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance calculations and design the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
