Solucorp's IFS-2C Mercury Emission Control Technology Successfully Demonstrated at Two Coal Fired Energy Plants

Business Wire
Solucorp Industries Ltd. (OTC: SLUP) announced that its patented
Integrated Fixation System, IFS-2C Mercury Emission Control
Technology marketed under the trade name MetalliFix by Charlotte,
NC�based CoaLogix, has been successfully demonstrated at two coal
fired power plants using wet flue gas desulfurization (FGD)
systems. The demonstrations targeted the IFS-2C�s ability to:
Reduce ionic mercury from flue gas emissions. Reduce elemental
mercury flue gas emissions while minimizing re-emission of Hg0
mercury. Integrate the Solucorp Mercury Emission Control system
into a working energy plant without interruption of its energy
production capabilities. Solucorp was successful in meeting all of
the above targets by reducing almost all ionic mercury emissions,
reducing elemental mercury to targeted levels while proving the
IFS-2C�s ability to integrate into the power plant�s wet scrubber
systems without causing interruption of the plant�s energy
production capabilities. The IFS-2C technology also remediates
mixed heavy metal contaminants, including elemental mercury,
contained within the wastewater and fly ash residue providing a
potential significant cost savings to the power plants. In January
2006 at the 9th Annual Electric Utilities Environmental Conference,
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA,
http://www.epa.gov/airmarkets/mp) projected annual cost for
compliance with the Clean Power Act (S150) was $41.1 Billion
including mercury emissions control. Stringent environment
regulations, increasing energy demand, rising fuel prices, and
unstable foreign providers have brought coal to the forefront as a
viable energy solution due to the abundant domestic and worldwide
coal supply. Solucorp�s IFS-2C has successfully demonstrated its
ability to significantly reduce and/or eliminate the related
harmful mercury emissions associated with coal-burning energy
plants, opening the door for the transition back to coal as a
cleaner primary energy source. Noel E. Spindler, President of
Solucorp�s IFS subsidiary, said that, �We were able to successfully
integrate our technology into both of the existing facilities
without interrupting their on-going plant operations. With
continued successful demonstrations, increasing interest by the
coal burning power generating industry, and the marketing, sales
and implementation expertise of CoaLogix, we believe that the first
commercial sale of the MetalliFix (IFS-2C) product is imminent.�
