Disruptive Technology for Pollution Utilization

6 Disruptive Technology for Pollution Utilization • Ener - core has designed, patented and built power generation systems around its proprietary “Power Oxidation” technology • Enables industrial companies to convert a liability (Air Pollution) into monetizable, clean utility - grade power • Industrial pollution (waste gases) such as methane, paint solvents or other VOC streams used as source of “effectively free fuel” • Proprietary Power Oxidation process converts this “free fuel” to industrial quality heat • Heat used to create electricity, steam, chilled water or for industrial processes

7 Ambient air + waste gases are introduced to vessel Heat generated is: • Sent to a turbine to generate electricity; or • Sent to a boiler to generate steam The oxidizer vessel creates the environment necessary to facilitate an exothermic oxidation reaction, without ignition (no flame) Waste gases are compressed, heated, and mixed At controlled high temperatures, the molecules have enough energy to react without a flame During a “long” residence time (0.50 - 1.25 seconds), gas molecules “collide” with oxygen molecules and the oxidation reaction occurs Energy is released from the oxidation reaction, heating the gas in the chamber Excess heat is carried out of the oxidation chamber with the gas that is then used to generate power Power Oxidation: Generating Heat Without Ignition Watch on YouTube Power Oxidation Video

8 Standard Gas Turbine for CHP Plant 1. Air Intake 3. Turbine 2. Combustion Chamber Standard CHP Gas Turbine 4. Exhaust or Heat Energy 1. Ambient Air pulled in by compressor 2. Premium Fuel (converted to heat via combustion) 3. Thermal Expansion of air causes rotating of blades 4. Electricity

9 Ener - Core Oxidizer Emissions Filter Power Oxidizer replaces the combustion chamber in standard gas turbines Modified Gas Turbine with Power Oxidation Our disruptive Power Oxidizer replaces the traditional combustion chamber & enables a gas turbine to generate clean power energy from “free” industrial waste gases (Air Pollution) Solves Two Problems 1. Removal of waste gases into the air 2. Assists compliance with air quality laws Creates Two Savings 1. Reduces purchased energy expenditures • New free fuel input for on - site power • Provides heat for industrial use 2. Pollution abatement savings – NOx Credits • Economic & environmental cost savings

35 Toward the end of the 19 th century, John D. Rockefeller was in the kerosene refinery business. All kerosene refiners used to throw away barrels of a

“noxious by - product” into the creeks and rivers; this toxic runoff made Ohio’s Cuyahoga River flammable. It was said that if a steamboat threw away hot coals overboard, the water would catch fire. Rockefeller, on the other hand, worked with his engineers to find uses for this toxic byproduct to fuel part of their refining process, ultimately making his refineries more financially efficient. Today, This Noxious By - Product Is Known As Gasoline Utilizing Waste: The Rockefeller Effect A Similar Opportunity Exists Today Where Ener - Core’s Power Oxidation Technology Utilizes Waste Gases to Produce Heat & Power With No Harmful Emissions
