Blue Northern Energy Acquires Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology
Blue Northern Energy is rejuvenating the biodiesel industry. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and rewarding biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE combines the most recent innovation advances, and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and rewarding biodiesel production facilities. BNE supplies assistance and services to businesses and communities in their undertakings to develop brand-new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and rewarding. Through its work and know-how BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.
Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has gotten a special innovation for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks might be utilized, enabling the most affordable expense feedstocks to be used. The ability to customize the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks alter by modulating the other reactants to the process instead of changing batch dishes, makes it an extremely versatile and more efficient process. The process also enables a reduction in capital cost of up to 40% and a decrease in running expense through lower energy expense of approximately 30%. These benefits of the innovation have actually been confirmed through a 3rd celebration evaluation finished by the Center for Process Innovation.
The QSB innovation has actually been extensively evaluated at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe along with the USA have been demonstrated, both separately along with blends.
Developing and enhancing the innovation is a high concern for BNE, and basic to our international expansion strategies. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a 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 carry out comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and speculative samples.
It is the administrator of the BN National Trail facility from conceptualization, advancement, building and construction to management. This facility exhibits the innovative technology of BNE and production process that made use of numerous crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and lucrative biodiesel production.
BNE's staff will increase to support this technology program. A senior chemical process professional will be employed to carry out mass and energy balance estimations and create the chemical process for innovative feedstocks.
