"Seruing the World with" Environmental Products and Services AUTHORIZED HYDROMEX REPRESENTATIVE Since 1989 HYDROMEX SAFEGUARDS for ZERO EMISSIONS CONTROL Testing has been proven that no harmful emissions are given off to the Air or Water Supply, the Sys;~em is totally enclosed. HYDROMEX incinerates no materials, so there are no emissions into the atmosphere. There is also no harmful residue remaining for subsequent disposal. 'THE ZERO EMISSIONS PROCESS 1. All gases and liquids released during the process and recycled through a Scrubbing system. The scrubbing system is a 2 stage wet spray chamber that draws the air into one side spraying it with fresh water to clairify the air by way of Negative Pres-sure, then discharged through Charcoal Filtration prior to entering the Atmosphere, and is constantly monitored. 2. The normal HYDROMEX equipment configuration provides for fresh air addition to all closed holding or process tanks containing liquids, and simultaneous evacuation by negative pressure of any fumes or gasses to the wet scrubber system. . 3. Other plant equipment, particularly around the mixer system and reaction system, directed fresh air sweeps across the work area carrying any fumes or gases into the negative pressure system. 4. It is anticipated that where chemicals or contaminated liquids are being introduced into the process, whether for distruction, neutralization or use as process reagents, containment tanks or other acceptable methods are used. 5. Liquid discharge from the HYDROMEX System is part of the process. These liquids are recirculated directly back into the reaction holding tanks for reuse.

In this plant the waste is soreed and non- recyclable, energ~v-containing waste is transformed to energy brickettes. 2. In this process. the energy value of the brickettes can be adjusted by adding f-9ydronnex designed fuel additives. 3. fihe brickettes obtained are now a solid, energy-carrying product, which will not leach out any harmful elements to the environment and which can be stored and transported just like coal or similar products. 4. These brickettes are fed into a high temperature gasification reactor. This reactor is completely built out of space-age ceramics. It has an outer ceramic body and an inner ceramic body. whereby the inner part is a rotaeing dome. Oacygen and hydrogen are fed into this reactor eharraber on several levels on one side and exhaust gases from the electric generator is fed into the lower bottom. The energy brickettes, as they move downwards along the dome, are finally gasifed at temperatures which can exceed 2i~0°C. These high temperatures and the use of oxygen and hydrogen have wail -known physical effects in regard to the era;nsformation of toxic gases, toxic materials and fanaily result in a email quantity of inert materials (composed of I~ ash and 2X slag}. S These inert-like ashes. however, are not left as residue but are reprocessed in the. 0~-9ydromex waste treatment system and used for the production of valuable building materials. 6. ®ue to the very high te~+peratures considerably less smoke is produced than in incinerators, This gas> is fed in form of a heat exchanger through- the liquid cataiyst systems producing reactions which result the f®rmatioa~ ®f ®xygen and hydr°~gen. `Thest gases are fed bac4~ to the reactor where they are required in ®rder to obtain the high gasifr~as:ion temperatures. 7. Thereafter, the gases pass through a falter systems, their energetic value is measured and if requi-red are adjusted with a mixture of oxyge~s and hydrogen in order to operate the electric generator which is run by these gases instead of fossil- furls. ~Ithough cechnically the generator eould operate l i~~ on these energy baring gases, it is reconse~ended that a small amount of approximately I ~ fosse! fuel is added to the mixture. 'this results in an extremely clean exhaust gas mainly comp®sed of water vapor which can be refed at the bottonn cif the gasifcation reactor as a burning aid, ,~pproxinsately 1i3~ ®f this clean gas can pass via a Catalys~~or into the a:ir. 8. The so obtained electricity can in a first place be used to operate the I~-iydromex waste treatment plant, the rest can bd sold t® electrici~r plants or can be used to produce a wide range of products with a high value requiring a !ot of energy for their manufacture sueh as hydrogen per®xide etc. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ sa ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ N ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 1 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ x ~ v+ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ray ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~s ac . an 4 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ • ~ ~ ~ ~N ~ N ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ® ~v? an ~ s-e ® ~ ~ ~ ~ ® ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ i~'R p~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ w ~ °°f ~ ~ ~ ~g P~ N X ~ n ~ £ n ~ ma c~ ~ ~r~~~~t~~~c, Y~tc. ~r®t ~ ~ T,owir~~~t F~~r~ G~n~t°~tio~s Qu~t~~ a~at l~rigt$ette~ Q~~tt~~ t !fit sxartirfS conapon~ts are most optians~ in the ~taanuf~ture of briquettes' fiat ~aea°~aaca~e of ea~a? t pew raa acceptable? weer l ' ~ co for ' ~ brigaaettes .asc raerasi®ned ire the ~gpr®proaze patent °catic a€ad a~ ~ trade met ~ the a~sn~Y.

I understand that this is a private venture and that the City and County of Honolulu are not obligated in any way financially for the operation of this system. As the Chair of the Public Works and Environmental Services Committee at the Honolulu City Councils I am aware that the capacity at our H-Power Facility and the Waimanalo Landfill are reaching a critical level and alternate modes of disposal will be critical in handling our waste stream in the coming years. Diversion of waste h-om these facilities is an important component in long-tern management of waste disposal issues. I believe that, priced competitively, this system could assist the city in the reuse/disposal of a portion of our solid waste stream Thank you for the information you provided, and I look forward to your participation in this waste reuse effort. Sincerely, STEVE HOLMES Councilmember T~ ~~Y LIlV~ ~lL~~,~®, L.L.C.

The only potential problem that would need to be addressed is the type of fasteners required. VVe only use cut spikes and do not have direct fixation rail fasteners that utilize timber screws or rail clips. 1l~Iost smaller railroads only use standard Spikes. This fact is very important if your ties are to be marketed to the smaller railroads. VVe have an excellent railroad to test your ties. Our track speed is 4011iIPH and our road trains move up to 14,000 tons. Please advise if you have additional questions. Sincerely, Doug R.

Verification of Plant Cost C~perating_Go~~and Value csli Products: Question A-1: What justification do you have for income from products sold? Answer A-1: Although product selling prices vary by location, in determining the income we researched the following: A. Wholesale prices from comparable products in the Denver, Colorado area. _ B. Wholesale prices from comparable products in the Seattle, Washington area. C. Using Wall Street analyst future pricing to determine competitive prices for products traded and the probable increase or decrease expected. D. Market pricing of recyeltrd products versus original products. 1?. Tipping fees from various: locations for solid waste and liquid wastes. Based on our information concerning the above research, we feel comfortable with the income in our projections. Question A-2: Flow do you plan to depreciate/replace a plant? Answer A-2: Depreciation is a factor of accounting and will be determined by the owner of the unit. In some cases a slower depreciation rate could be favorable depending on-the amount of profit to be generated after the system becomes more refined and approvals are obtained for processing more expensive waste items. Replacement of a plant will occur in a gradual maintenance program. At this time, we can see no reason to replace the body of the plant. As parts wear out they will be replaced and the balance shall continue 4 to function and could possibly go on for 2J to 30 years. Question A-3: Ho~v is down time configured in the operating cost? Answer A-3: With the exception of shredder malfunction, the plant will have capacity to always be operational. If any one of the lines should have a malfunction the other lines would continue to produce. It is anticipated that a normal plant would be ~#own for repair and maintenance for about 8 hours per month or S% of a plant operating 8 hours per day. uestion A-4: Q Has there been any local government or national government funding of~Fered to support building of I-Iydromex plants both in Europe and the United States?

We have not accepted any aflFers due to the complication of , reporting etc. therefore keeping ourselves free to act as we wish with no restrictions. Qfllesti®n A-5: Explain why overhead is only- 8% of labor. Answer A-S: Based on a 200 ton per shift plant the labor expense is $9 :per ton. This assumes $32 per hour average total wage/benefit package. ~`he $9 cost cap vary greatly based on loca' wage scales and the size of the plant. The :smaller the plant the higher the pe:• ton labor expense. Overhead on a 200 -ton plant is $ I per ton. This. includes phone, fax, office expense and an employee building. Question A-6: Has the system availability been analyzed (i.e., [MTBF] mean time before failure, [MTTIt] mean time to replace)? ,answer A-6: Only using the information supplied by manufacturers. The items on a Hydromex machine are stock items that can be purchased from the manufacturer at any time with minimal lead time. Qeaestion A-7: What process instrumentation has been inserted? Answer A-7: PH meters, amp meter for slump, OI~P meters, and atomic absorption spectrometer in addition to the normal instruments found in facilities of the same nature, Questi®n A-8: The financial projections do not contain plant cost? Answer A-8: The selling price of a plant to an investor is neg®tiated with the investor. For that price Hydromex Inc. designs, engineers, constructs and brings the plant to operational level. The financial projections are based solely on the operations of the plant. uestion A-9: Q What type of training is required? How is this factored into the cost? Ansever A-9: Depending on the expertise of people needing training, time would vary from 1-4 weeks. In no case " HYDROMEX, INC.

Question A-10: What are the construction, operation, and maintenance costs as compared to a MSWLF (municipal solid waste landfill)? Answer A-10: A landfill receives waste and his an ongoing cost for the life of the landfill with no return. other than from the alapreaatior~ value. on the l~:d if any. 1-iydromex, on the other hat3~, receives the. same fees. as the landfill and in tui. processes the waste into usable products which can be sold at a profit. Eased on this data these really is no comparison. (Note:) When the life of a landfill expires there are considerable costs involved in closing it down. i n A-11• Quest o What is the cost effective minimum size for a plant? Answer A-11: To date the smallest plant 1-lydrs~tnex can advise is a 50 ton unit. If a highly profitable waste stream (i. e. paint waste paid at 5380.00 per cubic yard) is available then the size of the plant could decrease. Questis~n A-12: Are there any operating plants in the U. S. or anywhere in the world? Answer A-12: There is a 50 t€~n facility on-line in I-l~speria California and a number of larger plants under consideration at this time, both domestic and offshore. Question A-13: What is the quantity and composition of liquid chemicals/reagents used to mix with shredded NISW to produce product materials such as energy briquettes or building materials? Answer A-13: There are hundreds of "recipes" that have been developed by Gene Pridemore that allow him to utilize a wide variety of liquid wastes. These.recipes :are proprietary informatic~~,. The. process can accept a large range of acids and alkali agents, used oil, sewage, floatation residue and agricultural waste. All re wired chemicals are available as waste-but, due to location or volume of the plant, some chemicals q may need to be purchased. The X12.00 per ton allocated costis-only an approximation of possible costs to purchase these chemicals. 1°hd range could be zero to $12.00.

No toxic or hazardous chemicals are required. Questeon A-14: Under operating expenses - A.re heating and cooling requirements (cost) addressed? - por plant liquid wastes/chemical storage, etc. Anse~es- A-14: There is no heating or cooling cost to the process. The heat generated cornea from chemical reactions and the product cools autoanatically. -The only= ene%gy re~tapred is ~leetrgc~t~ to run the equ~pn~ent, i.e. shredder; pumps, compressor, etc: as well- as fuel or electricity= to heat or cool the building if the-plant is enclosed. This amount would vary with location. Questeo~t A-flS: Does the product material produced require a curing or drying process: if so, how long and what type of storage facilities are required? Ansever A-15: The product requires about 24 hours to dry but it can be handled and shipped as soon as it is produced. There are no special storage facilities required. Stacking the pr€aduct on pallets out doors is sufftcient. Question A-d6: Is I-Iydromex, Inc. and or it's associated companies willing to provide a performance bond insuring construction and operation of a plant which meets-the necessary criteria and requirements? Answer A-ifs: We do not believe aperformance-bond is necessary but we will. supply one at an additional cost to the plant. Questeon A-17: Does I-Iydromex have a completed plant design which includes:-plant plans and specifications? If so, can we review the plans and specs?

Uni~aueness and Conawetitivtness ~f ~e lr~dr®me~.1Pr®cess• Questi®n ~-1: What safeguards are. employed to prevent gas and liquid leakage and contamination? Answer ~-1: The Hydromex process provides a means of producing numerous usable products from multiple and varied feedstock sources and streams. The selection of both the feedstock and the product is the responsibility of the operator. It is from the individualazed feedstock ~nnd product selection that the process sequence is developed, end refined. It is from this source material alone that gasses and liquids are generated which may or may not escape to the air scrubber for gasses or to the liquid recirculation system. Hydromex cannot predict at this time whether an operator would select feedstock which would lend itself to contamination problems. The normal equipment configuration provides for fresh au addition to all closed holding or process tanks containing liquids, and simultaneous evacuation by negative pressure of any fumes or gasses to a wet scrubber which would normally consist of a double spray chamber system to clarify the air being discharged. Other plant equipment, particularly around the mixer systean and the reaction system, directed fresh air would sweep across the work area carrying any-fumes or gasses into the negative pressure system. It is anticipated that where chemicals or contaminated liquids are being introduced into the process, whether for destruction, neutralization or use as process reagents, containment tarilcs or other acceptable protection methods would be used. Liquid discharge from the reactor system is a part of the process. These liquids are recirculated directly back into .the reaction holding tanks for reuse. It is not anticipated that, after initial start-up, fresh- water make-up will be necessary. Quests®n 1E3-2: What happens with piled up waste during plant shutdown? HYDROMEX, INC.

It is not probable that any shut down would last that long but if it did the waste would have to be piled and covered until the plant was operational again. Quests®n la-3: ~~A/hat quality control and statistical ~rocess,~~~trol (SI'C) measurers are employed in dealing with sorted starting waste materials? Garbage in garbage out? Ansever l~~t Very little sorting as required for the solid waste or the municipal solid waste. ~~Iae loader :operator can gener~.Il~t do the ~~rting without. leaving the operator cotnparaent. Should a truck hauling sometll.€g other than ~'ISW enter the waste stationit would be directed to unload out of the main waste dump area and the loader operator would mix it in with the other waste as needed. I.,iCluid waste wilfl come to the plant already sorted and will remain sorted and added in measured amounts. Quests®n li$~: Is it recommended that pre-processing sorting be added? Iiow comprehensive should it be? Answer A magnetic separator will be used to removed ferrous metals for separate recycling. Additional presorting can be incorporated into the system to remove specific materials for separate recycling, such as aluminum cans. Quests®n ~-5: What percentage of the finished product is polymer and what are the strengthlflexibility properties of the polymer? Answer 13e~: The percentage of polymers in the end product ranges frora~ 1% - 5°!® based on the formula used. Each formula is adjusted according to the in stream of waste being used end the desired end product. The polymer is a hardening agent. The strength is derived from mixing fibers with the polymer. The polymer by itself has very little strength. Qeaesti®n 18-6: I-Iow would something like asbestos be rendered inert? Answer The Hydromex process elongates the fibers by adding. polymers and liquid changing the specific gravity from less than 1 to 1.3, therefore making the asbestos unable to Moat. It is compressed into blocks and land filled. »YDROMEx, INC.

Answer C-~~: Some of the insulation products would probably not last more than five years outside, but the others would last indefinitely. This is another aspect we will be testing: Qaaesti®n C-6: How do you eliminate and /or control cracking spallation due to shrinkage? Answer C-~b: Hydromex products, primarily due to the polymer component, shrink less than 1 % which has no eflFect on the product. Questi®n C-7: How is the consistency of an end-product txaaintained with a mixture of waste? Answer C-7: The consistency of an end product is primarily deteranined by the pressure exerted on-the material and thin amount of polymers ;dsed. The a~azhture of waste normally becoayaes incidental since it is mainly used as a faller. Qaeesti®n C-8: How can Hydromex handle treated, i. e. copper, arsenic lurraber, and what happens to the toxins? Answer C-I~: All heavy metals are taken into solution by a chemical leach and removed. Qeaesti®n C-9: Have we got a report that shows strength testing and t~exibility of a lumber type product? Answer C-9: Strength and flexibility testing for lumber type products has not been done.

Ansv~er E-1: Hydromex, Inc. was formed as a 1~Ievada Corporation ire 1994 and has had several meetings with all of the regulatory agencies that we believe are appropriate to our business. Bob ~1ear of the l~t~, section. ~'~II; informed us that ~s long as we meet the this would be all that is required. The BPR is currently in the process of turning the regulatory process over to the individual .states. In talking to the Colorado Department of I<iealth and other agencies about environmental topics concernitag I-Iydromex, they confir~aed what. Bob ?dear-had said. Hydromex construction products may require testing to meet or exceed the appropriate A~STIYI and/or ICBO standards. (~aeeste®ea E-:~: What is your experience regarding European regulatory regtirements? Perra~its? Regulations? Plant Compliaaice? Answer E-2: Regulatory requirements are identical.

A~aswer 1F-1: The starting components for making briquettes are mentioned in the appropriate patent applications and are a trade secret at the moment. They are based on a :combination of silicates, acids, acrylic .polymers and the addation of Panthanides to ~t~bilize the calorific value and to enhance hydrog~;n and oxygen production during the gasification. Qeaesti®n F-Z: What specific pieces of equipment are required to manufacture briquettes? How does this compare with the general I-Iydroanex processing equipment?

He said there are certain things-ghat are forbidden from the waste stream and landfills, but it is more or less on the honor system. Qetesti®n G5: What are.the constnaction, operation, and maintenance costs as compared to a MSWLF? Ansa~ver G5: A landfill receives waste and has an ongoing cost for the life of the landfill with no return other than from the appreciation value on the land if any. Hydromex, on the other hand, receives the same fees as the landfill and in turn processes the waste into usable products which can be sold at a profit. used on this data -there really is no comparison. uesti®a~ 6• Q G . What is done if the liquid waste is-not beneficial to the I-lyc~romex process? What is economic balance? Is process still profitable in view oI'need-for chemical reagents? Answer G6: By the term beneficial, I am going to assume you mean profitable. All liquids are "profitable" for the Hydromex process. There may be some toxins we would chose to exclude. However, it would be possible to run water and still produce a profit. Questi®n G7: How is the chlorinb >rnolecule disposed of? ~~ow is it bounel into the matx without a leaching problem? How is it impregnated in the polymer matrix? Answer G7: Exhaust air from the wet scrubber is passed through a carbon air filter for discharge. Qaaesti®n Gg: How arc the solubilized metals separated from.. each other during. the metal. precipitation process? Are metals in a mixed condition? Slurry form? Answer Gg: The precipitated metals go through a solad liquid separation step and are collected as a mixed group. Questi®n G9: Does each Hydromex process have to be-pre-planned based upon the chemical composition of the waste? Is this done automatically ter has to be d®ne manually? Ansv~er G~: The Hydromex process is very flexible and can accommodate many dif~ercnt waste streams in the fabrication of a particular end product. T'he operator may need to balance homogeneous waste deliveries, i.e.: a load of carpet, tires and waste lumber, with other waste to achieve a blended mix. HYDROPAFJC, INC.

Questi®a~ G10: Assumption for 3 Production Processes: If liquid reagents are not available from liquid waste, what is the economic balance for process profitability? Answer t~10: I-€ydromex foresees no circumstance in which all reagents required will have to be purchased. The process is highly flexible and many reagents can be substituted in the fot~nulations. Small amounts of reagents may require purchase but the percent of the overall cost would be small and not impact profitability. Questi®€~ G11: What is the liquid catalyst? Without it, the generation of oxygen and hydrogen would make the process not profitable. Is this catalyst usable for all waste briquette compositions? Answer G11: The primary catalyst being used today is a chemical grouting mixture more as a hardener than a catalyst. The briquettes are made under enough pressure to avoid the need of a catalyst. ®ther liquids provide more than enough oxygen and hydrogen for the briquette process. Questiean G12• What is economic trade off of using various quantities of fiael additives to manufacture controlled energy briquettes? Answer G12: Almost all fuel additives and fuel waste provide high energy values and are items I-Iydromex is paid to destroy. Questi®n G13: Is there data to verify that the briquettes are leachable?

As can be seen, both plates have only surpassed in minimal quantities the absolut limits for cadmium and chrom VI. The level is so low that a slight adjustment in the recipe will be able to correct it.

The reasons are explained in the technical literature of the Hydromex process. •€`~€e~a#~sass~ X42 27 24'_0 • ~~xx O<82 23 2~ 2€ •'°c€cx Sb2 =5~ €NTO ~s8ersc8asse 59 . f°'Fd.flnrt •r.._,.. ~ - t ~isaer ~aitdifferen,~ v®n aina~ k~albera ~aq aaafi~lea and dim 8a~~aic~g aofact ?aach A~afa.ll, daarcig d~ra ~ 8~r$cht~ratatgar a~lYser ~rf®lgt~s. ~ 8c~ter~ra~~tallge3gaTt~- der• 8~~.ung~plattc~, (8~ilag~ 4a ) ~+~~.t~r~ ~T~berraao~xssasg -°di~aI. ~a~~ ~aa~a.t~.ve® a~at dia ~~~t~t~L2aaag°, daa~ dim ~dhoe~+aa~~st~.1~~~~~~t~ ~.s.~ .Aa~ana ~oaa Sn. >b~i der .8~+~r0~~~a~a3.atta (I'r~ba ~~it~ ~:t€~rt~~L~a der tlt~r~ti~~ ~t~tartataz~ ~d~rta Ii~gen. e~l~ ~oLg~ dear ~is~ckxung dar beid®n ~~a~sgan~apr®dta7ct~ a2 and b c~aad der daraas~ ra~~ultiarand~~ ~P~rd4inn,~aac~ ~®a~ ~Z (chunga~er~~I.t~,i~ aZ I b ,Z / I) ffi~~~t~as dig ~che~~rtalL~~bt~lq~taaltn der 8egr~ttaa~~s~~l~tta (c) ca.
