Solucorp's IFS Mercury Emission Control Technology Supports Multi-State Attorney Generals Goals to Eliminate Mercury Emission Problems from Coal Fired Power Plants.FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Solucorp Industries, Ltd., (OTC OTC See: Over-the-counter. OTC See over-the-counter market (OTC). :SLUP) Rich Runco, President of Solucorp Industries, Ltd. today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Integrated Fixation System (IFS), has sent a letter that details the company's patented IFS process for mercury emission reductions to the nine Attorney Generals who comprise a nine-state coalition questioning against the EPA EPA eicosapentaenoic acid. EPA abbr. eicosapentaenoic acid EPA, n.pr See acid, eicosapentaenoic. EPA, n. rule that "fails to protect children from dangerous mercury emissions." The letter informs each Attorney General that Solucorp's IFS technology can eliminate mercury emissions from coal burning power plants upon introduction to the emission stacks and will also treat the mercury contaminated contaminated, v 1. made radioactive by the addition of small quantities of radioactive material. 2. made contaminated by adding infective or radiographic materials. 3. an infective surface or object. ash to non-hazardous levels. E[acute accent]In his letter, Noel Spindler, president of IFS states: "Our patented technology, called Integrated Fixation System or IFS, as it comes into contact with the mercury, chemically converts it into mercuric sulfide, which is insoluble and non-hazardous. We are certain our process can reduce mercury emissions by greater than 90 percent." E[acute accent]It is the company's position that its mercury emission technology will reduce mercury emissions in Coal Fired Furnace Plants by greater than 90%, contrary to the position being taken by many power plants that no technology exists that can accomplish the proposed federal mandate to meet this goal. E[acute accent]The company notes that the IFS process had recently completed testing by the EERC EERC Energy & Environmental Research Center (University of North Dakota) EERC Economics Education and Research Consortium EERC Earthquake Engineering Research Center (UC Berkeley, California) (Energy Environmental Research Center) at the University of North Dakota; a project funded by the DOE (Department of Energy) and prominent power plants to find a solution to the mercury emissions dilemma. Based on success from the test, Solucorp is prepared to integrate its mercury control system into a fully operating power plant. Results of that testing are expected shortly. E[acute accent]About Solucorp E[acute accent]Solucorp Industries, Ltd., a Canadian corporation is parent to three U.S. corporations including: Solucorp Industries, focusing on the metals remediation and pollution prevention industries. Solucorp's patented MBS See Mb/sec. MBS - mobile broadband services (R) technology began development over twenty years TWENTY YEARS.

(Multiple Extraction Procedure) testing demonstrating its ability to prevent the return of metal pollution for in excess of 1,000 years. Since being patented, MBS(R) has been used throughout the United States and Canada as well as the UK, Italy, China and Argentina. Solucorp's MBS(R) technology can be reviewed on the EPA website at www.epa.gov by typing in the New Search Space, "Molecular Bonding System". This technology is also presented in a publication produced by the EPA titled Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation (SITE) Program, Technology Profiles 10th Edition, and Demonstration Program. E[acute accent]The Integrated Fixation System (IFS) technology was developed from Solucorp's EPA SITE Program proven MBS(R) process. The IFS technology deals with pollution prevention rather than existing contamination problems. IFS can be integrated into many types of product applications. IFS prevents future contamination from metals such as lead, mercury, arsenic, chromium (hex or tri), cadmium, zinc, nickel, selenium selenium (səlē`nēəm), nonmetallic chemical element; symbol Se; at. no. 34; at. wt. 78.96; m.p. 217°C;; b.p. about 685°C;; sp. gr. 4.81 at 20°C;; valence −2, +4, or +6. , antimony antimony (ăn`tĭmō'nē) [Lat. antimoneum], semimetallic chemical element; symbol Sb [Lat. stibium,=a mark]; at. no. 51; at. wt. 121.75; m.p. 630.74°C;; b.p. 1,750°C;; sp. gr.

Vanadium is a soft, ductile, silver-grey metal. . IFS can be added to pollutant-bearing products such as batteries, paint strippers, bullets, filters, computers, lamps, switches appliances, etc. IFS can be applied through a multitude of delivery systems both as solids and non-solids. The solid compound delivery systems include, for example, blocks, tablets, spikes and flakes. Some examples of non-solid delivery systems include laminates, inks, pastes, powders, gels, and slurries. IFS can be designed to activate and release under conditions such as exposure to light, pressure, acids, natural oxidation, etc. IFS has no limitations in how and where it can be integrated into metal containing products. Customized products can be designed and manufactured to meet specific needs. E[acute accent]The Company's objective is to be the leader in the field of pollution prevention of heavy metals contamination at the manufacturing source. In regards to this, the Company has also filed numerous "next generation" patents on the foundation of its MBS(R) and IFS patents with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO USPTO abbr. United States Patent and Trademark Office ). A number of these "next generation" patents have been filed as provisional applications by the Company in 2003 and 2004 and products have been developed and tested including an air pollution control patent to treat mercury vapor emissions from coal fired furnace power plants. This air pollution system was showcased and tested by the Energy Environmental Research Center (EERC) in North Dakota. The test was sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and a consortium consisting of coal burning energy companies which are directly affected by recent federal regulations mandating a 95% (percent) reduction in mercury emissions into the environment by the power plants. Most of these provisional patents have since been filed for regular patent status. These include IFS patents for paint stripper, air filters and self-remediating projectiles (ammunition). E[acute accent]WITS Inc., founded in 2001 and purchased by Solucorp in June 2004, is capable of supplying package systems to treat contaminated wastewater as low as 20 gallons per minute and upwards of 200 gallons per minute. By installing multiple package systems, flows greater than that can be achieved. In addition to pricing advantages, the WITS package produces a better water end result without using harmful chemicals. The major water/wastewater areas where the WITS' package can be utilized with significant benefits includes water utilities; wastewater utilities; sludge processing; combined sewer overflows; industrial pretreatment pretreatment, n the protocols required before beginning therapy, usually of a diagnostic nature; before treatment. pretreatment estimate, n See predetermination. ; offshore oil rigs; livestock industry and in food & beverage industry wastewater, automotive/metal processing discharging, recyclable water recovery and phosphorous phos·pho·rous adj.

WITS also has a network of representatives throughout the Country to promote their technology. This wide range of uses provides Solucorp with the ideal complement to its remediation and metals pollution preventive proprietary technologies. E[acute accent]The foregoing discussion contains forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations. Actual results, including the timing and amount of revenues recognized, contracts awarded and performed and net income may differ due to such factors as: delays in payment on contracts due to dealings with governmental and foreign entities; fluctuations in operating costs associated with changes in project specifications; economic and other conditions affecting the ability of prospective clients to finance projects; and other risks generally affecting the financing of projects.
