2 Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Collin Wymark edited this page 1 month ago


Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to produce a sustainable and successful biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most current innovation advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to and lucrative biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides guidance and services to organizations and neighborhoods in their endeavors to establish new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and competence BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the sustainable energy field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has obtained a distinct technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks might be utilized, permitting the most affordable expense feedstocks to be used. The capability to modify the procedure continuously, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the process instead of changing batch dishes, makes it an extremely versatile and more effective process. The process likewise allows a decrease in capital expense of approximately 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy cost of as much as 30%. These advantages of the innovation have actually been validated through a 3rd party assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high priority for BNE, and essential to our global expansion plans. 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 show 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 conceptualization, advancement, building and construction to management. This center exemplifies the innovative technology of BNE and production procedure that made use of multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.

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