Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and profitable biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the newest innovation advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to establish sustainable and profitable biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides guidance and options to organizations and neighborhoods in their ventures to establish new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and competence BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually gotten a special technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks might be utilized, enabling the lowest expense feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to customize the process continuously, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the process instead of changing batch dishes, makes it an extremely versatile and more effective procedure. The procedure likewise permits a reduction in capital expense of up to 40% and a reduction in running expense through lower energy cost of up to 30%. These benefits of the technology have been verified through a 3rd celebration assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.
The QSB innovation has been extensively tested at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have actually been demonstrated, both individually as well as blends.
Developing and improving the innovation is a high top priority for BNE, and essential to our international growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-new Innovation Center situated beside 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 experimental samples.
It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, advancement, building to management. This center exhibits the innovative of BNE and production process that utilized numerous 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 expert will be employed to perform mass and energy balance calculations and develop the chemical process for advanced feedstocks.
