Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Sabine Griffin edited this page 1 week ago


Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and successful biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the latest innovation advances, refining processes and innovative minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE offers assistance and services to companies and neighborhoods in their endeavors to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and knowledge BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has obtained a special innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be used, allowing the most affordable cost feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the process continuously, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than changing batch dishes, makes it a highly versatile and more efficient process. The process likewise allows a reduction in capital expense of approximately 40% and a reduction in running expense through lower energy expense of up to 30%. These advantages of the technology have actually been verified through a 3rd party evaluation completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the technology is a high concern for BNE, and basic to our plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center situated beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and perform extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, advancement, construction to management. This facility exemplifies the advanced innovation of BNE and production procedure that utilized multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and lucrative biodiesel production.

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