Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to develop a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the most current innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and lucrative biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides guidance and solutions to companies and neighborhoods in their ventures to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and knowledge BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource 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 might be used, enabling the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to customize the procedure continually, as the feedstocks change by modulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than altering batch recipes, makes it a highly flexible and more efficient procedure. The procedure also enables a reduction in capital expense of up to 40% and a reduction in running cost through lower energy cost of as much as 30%. These advantages of the technology have actually been validated through a 3rd celebration assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

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

Developing and improving the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and essential to our international expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center located next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the to show future feedstock processing and carry out substantial fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from concept, advancement, building and construction to management. This facility exemplifies the revolutionary innovation of BNE and production process that made use of 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 procedure specialist will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance calculations and create the chemical process for advanced feedstocks.
