Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel industry. BNE's is to create a sustainable and profitable biofuel production market throughout the United States. BNE combines the current technology advances, refining procedures and innovative minds to develop sustainable and successful biodiesel production facilities. BNE supplies assistance and solutions to companies and neighborhoods in their endeavors to establish brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and successful. Through its work and knowledge BNE, distinguishes itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has acquired 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 may be used, enabling the most affordable expense feedstocks to be utilized. The ability to modify the process constantly, as the feedstocks change by modulating the other reactants to the process instead of altering batch recipes, makes it a highly versatile and more effective process. The procedure also permits a reduction in capital expense of up to 40% and a decrease in running cost through lower energy expense of as much as 30%. These advantages of the technology have actually been verified through a 3rd celebration evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.
The QSB technology has been extensively checked at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe as well as the USA have been shown, both individually as well as blends.
Developing and improving the technology is a high concern for BNE, and essential to our global expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center situated next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to demonstrate future feedstock processing and perform extensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.
It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from concept, advancement, construction to management. This facility exhibits the innovative technology of BNE and production process that utilized numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and profitable biodiesel production.
BNE's staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process specialist will be brought on board to perform mass and energy balance estimations and develop the chemical process for innovative feedstocks.
