Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent technology advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and profitable biodiesel production centers. BNE supplies assistance and services to businesses and communities in their endeavors to establish new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and expertise BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has obtained an unique technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, allowing the least expensive cost feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to modify the process continually, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more efficient process. The process also allows a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a reduction in running cost through lower energy cost of up to 30%. These advantages of the innovation have been confirmed through a 3rd party assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB innovation has actually been thoroughly 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 improving the technology is a high top priority for BNE, and essential to our worldwide growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center located beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and carry out comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

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

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