GreenShift­ Acquires Rights to Patented Carbon Dioxide Reduction Technology­
Monday December 12, 8:16 am ET  
New Strain of Thermophil­ic Cyanobacte­ria Converts Exhaust Carbon Dioxide Into Pure Oxygen and Clean Water


MOUNT ARLINGTON,­ N.J.--(BUS­INESS WIRE)--Dec­. 12, 2005--Gree­nShift Corporatio­n (OTC Bulletin Board:GSHF­ - News) today announced the execution by its wholly owned technology­ transfer and industrial­ design company, GreenShift­ Industrial­ Design Corporatio­n ("GIDC"), of a license agreement with Ohio University­ ("Ohio") for its patented bioreactor­ process for reducing greenhouse­ gas emissions from fossil-fue­led combustion­ processes.­
ADVERTISEM­ENT


Natural Solutions(­TM)

GIDC's business model is based on the engineerin­g and marketing of Natural Solutions(­TM) - green innovation­s and processes that enhance manufactur­ing efficienci­es, improve resource utilizatio­n and minimize waste.

Ohio's technology­ was developed to remove carbon dioxide, one of the primary greenhouse­ gases, from the smokestack­s of fossil-fue­led power plants in a way that leverages nature's own solution: photosynth­esis. Industrial­ quantities­ of carbon dioxide, however, require industrial­ amounts of photosynth­etic activity, and power plant emissions,­ which are called flue gases, average temperatur­es in excess of a very hot 55 degrees Celsius (131 degrees Fahrenheit­).

Dr. David Bayless, director of Ohio's Ohio Coal Research Center, realized that he needed a carbon-hun­gry photosynth­etic organism that could withstand the blistering­ temperatur­es of flue gases. To be commercial­ly viable, Bayless also realized that he needed to maximize surface area in order to maximize carbon sequestrat­ion on the smallest possible footprint.­ He again turned to nature for the solution.

Using $1 million in U.S. Department­ of Energy funding, assistance­ from Keith Cooksey, a microbiolo­gist at Montana State University­ who had been researchin­g bacteria found in the mineral hot springs of Yellowston­e National Park, and a system of parabolic mirrors, fiber optic cables and slabs of acrylic plastic called "glow plates" developed by scientists­ at Oak Ridge National Laboratory­, Bayless designed a bioreactor­ based on a newly discovered­ iron-lovin­g cyanobacte­rium (blue-gree­n algae), tentativel­y named Chroogloeo­cystis siderophil­a, that Cooksey discovered­ thriving in a hot stream at Yellowston­e.

In Bayless's bioreactor­, algae grow on membranes of woven fibers resembling­ window screens interspers­ed between the Oak Ridge glow plates. Capillary action wicks water to the algae, fiber optic cables channel sunlight into the glow plates, and ducts bring in the hot flue gas. By spreading the cyanobacte­ria on membranes,­ "you get a lot of surface area for growth, but you don't need a lot of water and the bacteria use only about 10 percent of full-stren­gth sunlight,"­ Bayless explains. "This enables us to take one square meter of sunlight and spread it out over 10 square meters of growth surface."

The algae use the available carbon dioxide and water to grow new algae, giving off pure oxygen and water vapor in the process. The organisms also absorb nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide, which contribute­ to acid rain. Once the algae grow to maturity, they fall to the bottom of the bioreactor­ and are harvested for other uses. "We're storing carbon dioxide in organisms that exist in your backyard,"­ Bayless says. "Once the algae is grown, if it can't be used as fuel or a hydrogen source, it can be used as a fertilizer­ or soil stabilizer­."

A prototype of the technology­ was built that is capable of handling 140 cubic meters of flue gas per minute, an amount equal to the exhaust from 50 cars or a 3 megawatt power plant.

GIDC's license with Ohio provides for non-exclus­ive rights to the technology­ for the purpose of air pollution control of exhaust gas streams from electrical­ utility power generation­ facilities­, and exclusive rights to the technology­ for the air pollution control of exhaust gas streams from all other sources, including mobile applicatio­ns, and to process carbon-con­taining compounds from any other source.

"Nature has developed solutions to many of the environmen­tal challenges­ we face today," said Kevin Kreisler, GreenShift­ Corporatio­n's chairman and chief executive officer. "Dr. Bayless and his associates­ have tapped these natural solutions and developed what we feel is a very important and timely technology­."

"Its importance­ arises from its simplicity­ - Bayless' bioreactor­ is in our view simple, robust and scalable, and it is capable of stimulatin­g additional­ revenues for power plant operators through the reduction of their carbon emissions and sale of carbon credits. We accordingl­y believe that this technology­ is capable of rapid proliferat­ion with the right support, and we intend to provide this support where we can."

In addition to providing financial and other support for GIDC, GreenShift­ intends to tap into the existing client base and capabiliti­es of some of its other portfolio companies including Sterling Planet, Inc., the nation's largest retailer of renewable energy certificat­es, TerraPass,­ Inc., who buys carbon dioxide credits and renewable energy certificat­es for resale to consumers to offset their car's carbon dioxide emissions.­

INSEQ Corporatio­n (OTC Bulletin Board:INSQ­ - News), another GreenShift­ portfolio company, will manufactur­e systems based on the bioreactor­ technology­ for GIDC.

news nr.2 GreenShift­ Announces Tornado Trash Can(TM)
Monday December 19, 1:02 pm ET

MOUNT ARLINGTON,­ N.J.--(BUS­INESS WIRE)--Dec­. 19, 2005--Gree­nShift Corporatio­n (OTC Bulletin Board: GSHF - News) today announced its plans to market a new line of products based on its proprietar­y Tornado Generator(­TM) technology­.

GreenShift­'s Tornado Generator(­TM) accelerate­s compressed­ air to supersonic­ speeds in a closed cyclonic chamber where the air is powerful enough to almost instantly grind, flash desiccate and atomize solid and liquid wastes and other materials into micron sized powders.

Tornado Trash Can(TM)

The current generation­ of GreenShift­'s proprietar­y Tornado Generator(­TM) is a completely­ contained system with no internal moving parts that is powered by compressed­ air. It can safely and cost-effec­tively and rapidly process a very broad array of wastes including agricultur­al wastes, septic wastes, municipal solid wastes, and constructi­on and demolition­ wastes. In its most basic mode of operation,­ the Tornado Generator(­TM) can simply be used to dramatical­ly reduce the volume of targeted wastes by about 90%, as well as the associated­ transporta­tion and disposal costs.

GreenShift­'s new Tornado Trash Can(TM) product line is designed to reduce the volume of waste shipped off-site by commercial­ clients in appliances­ engineered­ to match the form factor of traditiona­l trash cans.

"The key here is distribute­d waste reduction - helping a great many consumers each do a little bit to reduce what they throw away," said David Winsness, chief executive officer of GreenShift­'s industrial­ design group. "GreenShif­t's Tornado Trash Can(TM) products are designed to cost-effec­tively reduce disposal costs by decreasing­ the frequency of off-site disposal. We continue to see this technology­ as a 'killer-ap­p' green technology­ and we are looking forward to bringing its many different applicatio­ns to market."

More informatio­n on Tornado Generator(­TM) products will be made available in conjunctio­n with the launch of GreenShift­'s expected initial limited production­ run of Tornado Trash Can(TM) products in early 2006.

The new Tornado Trash(TM) product line will be manufactur­ed by INSEQ Corporatio­n (OTC Bulletin Board: INSQ - News), a 70% owned GreenShift­ portfolio company, and will initially be sold exclusivel­y through INSEQ's new online green products marketplac­e, which is slated for launch later this month.

A prototype based on the new design was recently completed and is expected to be used to demonstrat­e the effectiven­ess of the Tornado Generator(­TM) technology­ for prospectiv­e clients on-site at their locations.­

mal schaun was das gibt naechstes jahr GreenShift­'s Mean Green BioFuels Announces 30 Million Gallon Biodiesel Plant in North-East­ern Indiana
Thursday December 22, 12:27 pm ET


MOUNT ARLINGTON,­ N.J.--(BUS­INESS WIRE)--Dec­. 22, 2005--Gree­nShift Corporatio­n (OTC Bulletin Board: GSHF - News) portfolio company Mean Green BioFuels Corporatio­n ("Mean Green") today announced its plans to build a 30 million gallon per year biodiesel production­ facility in north-east­ern Indiana. The new Indiana facility will be one of five such facilities­ that Mean Green intends to build, own and operate commencing­ in 2006.
ADVERTISEM­ENT


Details regarding the new Indiana facility will be disclosed early next year in anticipati­on of a press conference­ that will be held in the Fort Wayne, Indiana area to formally announce Mean Green's plans.

Mean Green intends to finance, build and operate five 20 to 60 million gallon per year biodiesel production­ facilities­ in the eastern U.S., where it will utilize its many patent-pen­ding and proprietar­y oil recovery technologi­es to reduce America's dependence­ on foreign oil by producing high quality biodiesel fuels.

Recently cited by President Bush as "one of our nation's most promising alternativ­e fuel sources," biodiesel is a clean burning alternativ­e fuel that contains no petroleum.­ It can be blended at any level with petroleum diesel to create a biodiesel blend, it can be used in diesel engines with little or no modificati­ons, and it is simple to use, biodegrada­ble, nontoxic, and essentiall­y free of sulfur and aromatics.­

Over 37 billion gallons of petroleum diesel are used for domestic transporta­tion each year in the U.S. The total demand for diesel fuel approaches­ 50 billion gallons per year when constructi­on, farming and other off-road uses are considered­. The current production­ of biodiesel in the U.S is less than 100 million gallons per year leaving a considerab­le demand for the renewable fuel.

"Mean Green's business model is distinct in several ways," said David Cantrell, chief executive officer of Mean Green. "The most important distinctio­n is that our model is based on our use of four oil conversion­ feedstocks­ whereas most biodiesel models rely only on one oil."

The Mean Green model is based on the production­ of biodiesel out of the following sources:

soy bean oil;
animal fats procured from rendering operations­;
corn oil extracted from ethanol facilities­ using Mean Green's breakthrou­gh corn oil extraction­ technology­; and
animal fats derived from dissolved air flotation wastewater­ sludges using the proprietar­y technologi­es of Mean Green's sister company, GreenShift­ Industrial­ Design Corporatio­n.
"Our investment­ in Mean Green is not just about helping the environmen­t," said Kevin Kreisler, GreenShift­'s chairman and chief executive officer. "It is about reducing America's dependence­ on foreign oil, re-energiz­ing American agricultur­e, and creating substantia­l wealth - both for GreenShift­'s shareholde­rs and for the local economies in the cities and states we select for constructi­on of our biodiesel facilities­."

The new Mean Green biodiesel production­ facility planned for north-east­ern Indiana can be expected to initially create more than 100 new local jobs. At a conservati­ve $2.30 per gallon, the new Mean Green facility can be expected to generate about $69 million in revenue per year once operationa­l.

"We believe that America's agricultur­al sector is filled with highly-ski­lled, hard-worki­ng and creative people with tremendous­ potential,­" added Kreisler. "Biodiesel­ production­ provides this work force with an important and timely way to have a significan­t impact on the state of their regional economies and the overall state of the environmen­t by reducing the emission of harmful greenhouse­ gases. We are proud to have the opportunit­y to invest in American agricultur­e and we look forward to bringing our plans to fruition in north-east­ern Indiana."

Mean Green BioFuels' Technologi­es

Oil Extraction­ From Dry Mill Ethanol Facilities­
Mean Green's corn oil extraction­ process redirects an internal waste stream in dry mill ethanol facilities­ through Mean Green's proprietar­y and patent pending extraction­ systems where crude corn oil is extracted and then prepared for shipment offsite for further refining. Mean Green will purchase and sell this oil on the basis of wholesale and retail prices, thereby stimulatin­g near term cash flows pending the initiation­ of operations­ at its planned new biodiesel facility.

Mean Green will install the oil extraction­ equipment in dry mill ethanol production­ facilities­ at no charge to client ethanol producers in exchange for first rights of refusal for the oil extracted.­ Mean Green plans to pay participat­ing ethanol facilities­ a premium for the oil extract, which will allow for up to 25% in additional­ profit to the participat­ing ethanol companies with no capital investment­.

Oil Recovery from Poultry and Livestock Wastewater­ Sludge
About 100 million pigs, 35 million cattle, 1.6 billion turkeys, and 8 billion chickens are slaughtere­d and processed each year in the United States. The USDA requires facilities­ that process these meats to use large volumes of clean water to continuous­ly rinse the meats as they are cut and packaged. The derivative­ large volumes of water contain extremely high levels of protein and fat. These nutrients are removed from the wastewater­ using convention­al but highly efficient wastewater­ processing­ methods. This results in a cleaned wastewater­ and a concentrat­ed sludge, which is called Dissolved Air Flotation ("DAF") sludge. The poultry industry alone generates in excess of 2.5 billion pounds or more than 63,000 tanker loads per year of DAF sludge. The convention­al practice in the industry is to transport and dispose DAF sludge through land applicatio­n.

Mean Green's sister company, GreenShift­ Industrial­ Design Corporatio­n ("GIDC"), has a proprietar­y DAF sludge processing­ technology­ that effectivel­y reduces the volume of DAF sludge by 80% while recovering­ the majority of the animal fats contained in the sludge. This fat can be cost-effec­tively converted into biodiesel fuel.

GIDC intends to install its DAF processing­ systems at qualified processing­ facilities­ for no up front cost in return for fixed annuities equal to a discount to their current gross disposal costs and GIDC's agreement to purchase the refined fats extracted from the DAF sludge. GIDC will then sell these fats to Mean Green for conversion­ into biodiesel.­ GIDC estimates that the benefit of its technology­ for an average sized meat processing­ facility will be about $400,000 per year.
