Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology

Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE’s mission is to develop a sustainable and profitable biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the most current technology advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and successful biodiesel production centers. BNE provides assistance and solutions to companies and communities in their endeavors to develop brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and knowledge BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has gotten an unique 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 may be used, enabling the most affordable expense feedstocks to be used. The capability to modify the procedure continually, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch dishes, makes it an extremely versatile and more efficient process. The process likewise allows a decrease in capital expense of approximately 40% and a reduction in operating cost through lower energy expense of as much as 30%. These advantages of the technology have actually been confirmed through a 3rd party evaluation completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB technology has been extensively tested at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have actually been demonstrated, both separately along with blends.

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high priority for BNE, and fundamental to our global growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing 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 experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from conceptualization, development, construction to management. This facility exemplifies the advanced technology of BNE and production process that used multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.

BNE’s personnel will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process expert will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance computations and create the chemical procedure for innovative feedstocks.
