Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and lucrative biofuel throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most recent technology advances, refining processes and innovative minds to develop sustainable and successful biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides assistance and options to organizations and communities in their ventures to establish brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and know-how BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has acquired an unique technology 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, allowing the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to modify the process constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch recipes, makes it an extremely flexible and more effective procedure. The procedure also allows a reduction in capital expense of up to 40% and a reduction in running expense through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These advantages of the technology have actually been verified through a 3rd celebration evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has been thoroughly tested at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe in addition to the USA have actually been shown, both individually as well as blends.

Developing and improving the technology is a high concern for BNE, and fundamental to our international expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center situated beside the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and carry out extensive 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 facility exemplifies the innovative technology of BNE and production process that made use of several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and successful biodiesel production.

BNE's personnel will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical procedure expert will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance computations and create the chemical process for sophisticated feedstocks.
