Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to create a sustainable and successful biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent innovation advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production centers. BNE supplies guidance and solutions to businesses 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 proficiency BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the eco-friendly energy field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained an unique innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, allowing the most affordable cost feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to modify the process constantly, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch dishes, makes it an extremely flexible and more effective procedure. The process likewise permits a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a decrease in running expense through lower energy cost of approximately 30%. These benefits of the innovation have been validated through a 3rd completed by the Center for Process Innovation.
The QSB innovation has actually been extensively tested at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have been demonstrated, both separately as well as blends.
Developing and enhancing the technology is a high concern for BNE, and basic to our international growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center situated next to the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and perform extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.
It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, advancement, building to management. This center exhibits the innovative technology of BNE and production process that made use of several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and successful biodiesel production.
BNE's staff will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical procedure professional will be employed to perform mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical procedure for innovative feedstocks.
