Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to create a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current technology advances, refining processes and innovative minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE offers guidance and services to companies and communities in their undertakings to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and proficiency BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained an unique 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 used, allowing the lowest expense to be used. The capability to customize the procedure continuously, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than altering batch dishes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective process. The process also permits a decrease in capital cost of as much as 40% and a decrease in operating expense through lower energy expense of approximately 30%. These benefits of the technology have actually been validated through a 3rd celebration assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and fundamental to our worldwide expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center located next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and carry out comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from concept, development, building to management. This center exemplifies the advanced technology of BNE and production procedure that utilized numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and lucrative biodiesel production.

BNE's staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process expert will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance calculations and create the chemical process for advanced feedstocks.
