Solucorp showcased its innovative and unique environmental remediation technologies to another group of specialists associated with the Department of Defense (DoD) and continued to gain an understanding of the needs of DoD with regard to their environmental problems. This is the second DoD conference where Solucorp has participated in the past two months. The conference, like the Joint Services Environmental Management (JSEM JSEM Joint Services Environmental Management
JSEM Joint Services Endgame Model
) Conference held last month, resulted in a significant amount of interest by DoD personnel charged with various aspects of environmental remediation. This annual event supports the DOD in numerous efforts directed at reducing the stockpile of excess and obsolete strategic, tactical, and conventional munitions mu·ni·tion

. The agenda focused on the global challenges and successes experienced in the disposition of energetic materials. Topics of interest included ongoing disposal, recycling, and reuse programs (R3), research and development efforts, transitioning technologies, and the latest policy issues affecting this business. Participation by industry, academica, government and international personnel encouraged cooperation in meeting the challenges of future efforts.

According to Noel Spindler, President of Integrated Fixation System Co, Inc., one of Solucorp's wholly owned subsidiaries, "We are pursuing numerous leads from those who expressed interest in our technologies and our ability to help them solve their environmental challenges. Based on our JSEM participation we are pleased , that testing of RE-ME-DI-ATE stripper product is on-going at a DoD facility and that many other DoD personnel are desirous de·sir·ous

Richard Runco, President of Solucorp Industries Ltd, added, "We're confident that once DoD fully understands the power of our technologies we can be an important partner in their efforts to solve a host of environmental remediation challenges."

"DoD environmental remediation costs are estimated to be in the billions of dollars for Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS FUDS Formerly Used Defense Sites

) alone. This estimate will undoubtedly increase as more sites will be added to the list based on the most recent Base Realignment and Closure Base Realignment and Closure (or BRAC) is a process of the United States federal government directed at the administration and operation of the Armed Forces, used by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) and Congress to close excess military installations and realign  proposal. As bases are closed, an important factor is the redevelopment plan for that base and attempts to usefully integrate the base back into the civilian sector.

 Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation ("SITE") Program proven technology permanently remediates wastes where heavy metals are present by chemically changing those metals into sulfides, which is the most insoluble compound for heavy metals. Solucorp is and will be able to help with existing FUDS as well as any newly added ones," said Bob Cox, a retired Army Colonel helping Solucorp market its technologies to DoD.

Solucorp showcased a number of its innovative commercially available IFS RE-ME-DI-ATE products including its Paint Stripper, Haz-Metal Blasting Additive, Haz-Metal Packing Chips and Haz-Metal Spill Additive, Paint Booth Filter, Film Liner and most exciting of all its environmentally friendly self-remediating lead bullet at the Global Demilitarization Symposium & Exhibition.

About Solucorp

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(R) technology began development over twenty years ago and offers a permanent solution to heavy metals pollution problems. Solucorp's MBS(R) has also undergone U.S. EPA MEP (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.

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.

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 EERC Energy & Environmental Research Center (University of North Dakota)
EERC Economics Education and Research Consortium
EERC Earthquake Engineering Research Center (UC Berkeley, California) 
) 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).

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,

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. Investors are cautioned to perform a proper due diligence and consult licensed professionals prior to making an investment decision.
