Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is renewing the biodiesel market. BNE's mission is to create a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent innovation advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to establish sustainable and lucrative biodiesel production centers. BNE provides assistance and services to companies and neighborhoods in their undertakings to develop new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing facilities to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and know-how BNE, differentiates itself as the leader in the eco-friendly energy field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has obtained a distinct innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a constant biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of vegetable oils. Multiple feedstocks may be used, allowing the most affordable cost feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to modify the process continuously, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than altering batch recipes, makes it an extremely flexible and more effective process. The procedure also allows a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a decrease in operating cost through lower energy cost of as much as 30%. These benefits of the innovation have been validated through a 3rd celebration evaluation completed by the Center for Process Innovation.
The QSB innovation has been extensively evaluated 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 improving the technology is a high concern for BNE, and basic to our global growth strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a brand-new Innovation beside the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to show future feedstock processing and carry out comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.
It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, development, building to management. This facility exemplifies the advanced innovation of BNE and production process that made use of several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and rewarding biodiesel production.
BNE's personnel will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical process expert will be brought on board to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and design the chemical process for innovative feedstocks.
