Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Michaela Casas edited this page 1 month ago


Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel market. BNE’s objective is to develop a sustainable and lucrative biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most recent technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to develop sustainable and successful biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides assistance and solutions to businesses and communities in their ventures to develop brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and rewarding. Through its work and competence BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually acquired a special 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 might be utilized, enabling the most affordable expense feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch recipes, makes it an extremely versatile and more effective procedure. The procedure also allows a decrease in capital expense of up to 40% and a decrease in running expense through lower energy cost of up to 30%. These advantages of the innovation have actually been verified through a 3rd celebration assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and basic to our international expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a new Innovation Center located beside the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to demonstrate 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 concept, development, construction to management. This facility exemplifies the revolutionary innovation of BNE and production procedure that made use of numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high and lucrative biodiesel production.

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