Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology

Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE’s mission is to create a sustainable and successful biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current innovation advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to sustainable and successful biodiesel production centers. BNE provides guidance and options to companies and neighborhoods in their undertakings to develop new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and rewarding. Through its work and competence BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually acquired a distinct innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks might be utilized, permitting the least expensive cost feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to modify the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the process instead of changing batch dishes, makes it an extremely flexible and more effective process. The procedure likewise allows a reduction in capital expense of up to 40% and a reduction in operating cost through lower energy cost of as much as 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 been extensively checked at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe as well as the USA have actually been demonstrated, both individually in addition to blends.

Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high top priority for BNE, and essential to our international expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-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 substantial fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, advancement, construction to management. This center exhibits the innovative innovation of BNE and production procedure that utilized multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and successful biodiesel production.

BNE’s personnel will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical procedure specialist will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance calculations and design the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
