Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and successful biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current technology advances, refining processes and innovative minds to develop sustainable and successful biodiesel production centers. BNE offers assistance and options to businesses and communities in their undertakings to establish brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and lucrative. Through its work and competence BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained an unique technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, permitting the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to customize the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks alter by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of changing batch dishes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective process. The procedure also enables a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a decrease in running expense 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 been thoroughly checked at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe in addition to the USA have actually been demonstrated, both separately along with blends.
Developing and improving the innovation is a high concern for BNE, and basic to our international expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-new Innovation Center located next to the 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 center exhibits the revolutionary innovation of BNE and production process that utilized numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and rewarding 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 computations and create the chemical process for feedstocks.
