Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the newest technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and lucrative biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides guidance and services to companies and neighborhoods in their undertakings to establish new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers 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 obtained a distinct technology 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 utilized, permitting the most affordable cost feedstocks to be used. The capability to customize the process continually, as the feedstocks change by the other reactants to the procedure rather than altering batch dishes, makes it an extremely versatile and more efficient process. The process likewise allows a reduction in capital expense of approximately 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy expense of as much as 30%. These benefits of the technology have actually been confirmed through a 3rd celebration assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high top priority for BNE, and fundamental to our worldwide expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-new Innovation Center situated next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and carry out substantial fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

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

BNE's staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical procedure expert will be employed to perform mass and energy balance computations and design the chemical procedure for advanced feedstocks.
