Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current innovation advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE supplies assistance and services to businesses and neighborhoods in their endeavors to establish brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and proficiency BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the sustainable energy field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has acquired an unique innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks might be utilized, permitting the least expensive expense feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to modify the procedure continuously, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch recipes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective process. The process also allows a reduction in capital expense of approximately 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy expense of approximately 30%. These benefits of the technology have actually been validated through a 3rd party evaluation 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 as well as the USA have actually been demonstrated, both individually in addition to blends.
Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high concern for BNE, and essential to our international growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center located beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to show 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, advancement, construction to management. This facility exemplifies the innovative technology of BNE and production procedure that utilized multiple crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and lucrative biodiesel production.
BNE's personnel will increase to support this . A senior chemical process expert will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance estimations and develop the chemical procedure for innovative feedstocks.
