Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology

Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel industry. BNE’s mission is to create a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most current technology advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE supplies assistance and solutions to services and neighborhoods in their ventures to establish brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and rewarding. Through its work and knowledge BNE, itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has acquired a distinct 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, enabling the most affordable cost feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to customize the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the process rather than changing batch recipes, makes it a highly versatile and more efficient procedure. The procedure also enables a decrease in capital expense of approximately 40% and a reduction in running cost through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These advantages of the technology have been validated through a 3rd celebration assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has actually been thoroughly evaluated at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe in addition to the USA have been shown, both separately along with blends.

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high priority for BNE, and basic to our worldwide growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center located beside 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 experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from conceptualization, advancement, building and construction to management. This center exhibits the innovative innovation of BNE and production process that made use of numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.

BNE’s staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process specialist will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance computations and develop the chemical procedure for innovative feedstocks.
