Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to produce a sustainable and successful biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most recent innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE offers guidance and solutions to companies and communities in their undertakings to develop brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and proficiency BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the sustainable energy field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has acquired a special technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks might be used, permitting the lowest expense feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to modify the process constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the process rather than changing batch dishes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective procedure. The procedure likewise permits a decrease in capital expense of as much as 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy cost of as much as 30%. These advantages of the technology have been confirmed through a 3rd party assessment finished by the Center for Process Innovation.
The QSB technology has actually been thoroughly evaluated 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 the technology 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 situated beside the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability 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 conceptualization, development, building to management. This center exemplifies the advanced technology of BNE and production process that used numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and successful biodiesel production.
BNE's staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process expert will be employed to perform mass and energy balance calculations and design the chemical process for advanced feedstocks.
