Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to create a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the latest innovation advances, refining processes and innovative minds to develop sustainable and profitable biodiesel production facilities. BNE offers guidance and options to organizations and communities in their undertakings to establish new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and competence BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the eco-friendly energy field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually obtained a distinct technology 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 used, permitting the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to modify the process continually, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the process instead of changing batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more efficient process. The process also permits a decrease in capital expense of as much as 40% and a decrease in running expense through lower energy expense of up to 30%. These advantages of the innovation have actually been confirmed through a 3rd celebration evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.
The QSB innovation has been thoroughly checked at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have been demonstrated, both individually as well as blends.
Developing and enhancing the technology is a high concern for BNE, and essential to our global growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center situated beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and carry out extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.
It is the of the BN National Trail facility from concept, development, building and construction to management. This center exemplifies the innovative technology of BNE and production procedure that made use of multiple 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 process professional will be employed to perform mass and energy balance computations and create the chemical procedure for sophisticated feedstocks.
