Electrocoagulation Unit Operational in England
Sunday, July 29, 2007
CRYSTAL CITY, Texas (July 30, 2007) Ecoloclean Industries, Inc. (ECCI/PK) announced today that the Electrocoagulation Unit that was delivered to England on July 2, 2007 is operational and treating contaminated water from the South Crofty Tin Mine at Cambourne, England.
Mr. Royis Ward, President and CEO stated today that in spite of difficulties experienced after the unit arrived at the mine, electrical problems have been corrected and the unit is up and processing contaminated water. "After being adapted and reprogrammed, the unit began treating the contaminated mine water and the results were immediately observed as successful. To increase volume to the optimal level the mine will be installing a larger pump. The pump that was installed by the mine owners was too small to deliver the volume of water for the Electrocoagulation Unit to continually operate. A new pump will be in-place by Monday, July 30, 2007 and the unit will become fully operational on 1st August, 2007. The mine and Sivex Ltd, our United Kingdom associates, informed us that the unit will be fully operational operating at full capacity."
According to Tony Millington, Chairman of Sivex Ltd, "We are very pleased to report that results of the Electrocoagulation Unit are surpassing our expectations. We expect to be fully operational on Wednesday August 1st with this unit and we anticipate acquiring further contracts to place additional Electrocoagulation Units on-line at other mining operations in the UK immediately."
Mr. Ward, states "That the Company has already begun the construction of additional Electrocoagulation Units to meet the needs of other mines that will use the system. The next unit will be ready for shipment to the United Kingdom within the next two weeks. Our main focus is
to assess the operational results of the first unit at the South Crofty Mine and then refine and adjust our model and the additional EC Units based on those results. We are pleased with the likelihood of many additional units being shipped to the United Kingdom."
Deborah Mclaren, Environmental Advisor to Sivex Ltd stated that "Trials with the bench-top EC unit have proved very successful treatment of acid mine water, with immediate and substantial improvement in pH and dissolved metal content. We are confident that in this validation period for the full-scale EC plus settlement facilities, we will be able to achieve compliance with the Discharge Conditions."
Tests of other waste waters have given us astonishingly good results and further trials will be carried out as soon as possible with one of full-scale units to validate this other potential use."
