Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the current innovation advances, refining procedures and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and profitable biodiesel production centers. BNE offers assistance and services to services and communities in their undertakings to develop brand-new biodiesel production centers or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and know-how BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the eco-friendly energy field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually gotten a special technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production process by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks might be used, allowing the most affordable cost feedstocks to be utilized. The capability to modify the process continually, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure rather than changing batch recipes, makes it an extremely versatile and more effective procedure. The process also permits a reduction in capital expense of up to 40% and a reduction in operating expense through lower energy expense of as much as 30%. These advantages of the innovation have actually been confirmed through a 3rd celebration 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 been demonstrated, both separately in addition to blends.
Developing and improving the innovation is a high priority for BNE, and basic to our worldwide growth plans. In order to support this, BNE will be establishing a new Innovation Center located next to the very first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the ability to demonstrate 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 center from concept, development, and construction to management. This center exemplifies the innovative innovation of BNE and production process that made use of numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and rewarding biodiesel production.
BNE's staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process specialist will be employed to perform mass and energy balance calculations and create the chemical process for advanced feedstocks.
