  1. ADVANCED OXIDATION PROCESSES-Solutions to better the environment and improve your bottom line.  Reduce chemical use by as much as 95%  Reduce sludge by as much as 50%  Recycle process water at reduced costs  Remove organic and inorganic compounds that require expensive solutions, such as prescription drug residues  Reduce blow down and chemical use and increase efficiency in cooling tower applications  Eliminate chlorine and trihalomethanes from swimming pools and other recreational water use, such as water parks From fresh water supply to industrial and commercial waste water to recycling process water in most industries these new Ozomax technologies can reduce costs considerably and improve quality.

  2. Electrocatalytic AOP  Produces Ozone directly from water (insitu) using Ozomax’s patented electro-catalytic dissociation process.  The resulting nascent oxygen in the presence of precious metal catalysts produces a mixture of powerful oxidants including oxygen radicals, ozone, hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radicals.  These work together to simultaneously oxidize, coagulate and eliminate organic and inorganic pollutants. These are especially effective in destroying micro- organisms.

  3. UNIVERSITY TESTED IN ACTUAL INDUSTRY APPLICATION Ozomax, thru its affiliate in the US, OzomaxUSA (formerly known as AgriO3,Inc), received a grant from the GEORGIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY ENTERPRISE INNOVATION INSTITUTE to build a portable prototype for use in proving the feasibility of using these processes in treating poultry processing plant waste water effluent. May 8, 2008 Mr. Mark Heflin Georgia Institute of Technology Enterprise Innovation Institute Atlanta, GA 30308 Mr. Rob Ginn e2e Works Subject: Prototype for Food and Industrial Processing Plants After reviewing your application for a Centers of Innovation Research Grant, it is our pleasure to award $50,000 to Mr. Mark Heflin to work with AgriO3 Inc, and Ozomax USA on the development of a water recycling prototype for use in food and industrial processing plants. The Centers of Innovation Research Grant Award is contingent on the industry match of $50,000 agreed to by AgriO3, Inc. The proposed effort for this project will be completed by June 30, 2008. Contract administration for this grant will be handled by Georgia Tech’s Office of Grants and Contracts. AgriO3 will have certain rights to any Georgia Tech Intellectual Property developed in this project. These rights will be specified in the research Agreements executed between AgriO3 and Georgia Tech. This grant award in the amount of $50,000 will be activated upon receipt of Mark Heflin’s signature on the attached Award Terms and Conditions Agreement. Please return the signed agreement to: Sandy Lake Program Administrator Georgia Centers of Innovation 75 5 th Street, NW Suite 1200 Atlanta GA 30308 We look forward to working with you on this project. Please call me if you have any questions. Sincerely, Sandy Lake Testing of the prototype verified the AOP processes could be used to treat effluent from the DAF as well as directly from the poultry processing plant .

  8. SUMMARY OF TEST RESULTS FINAL REPORT May 4, 2009 Final Report AgriO3- COI Grant project entitled “Water Recycling Prototype for Food and Industrial Processing Plants”. The following is a report on the results of the grant project: AgriO3 and OzoMax produced a prototype treatment system as described in the previous statement of work for the project ( see attached photo). The system was installed at the Mar-Jac Poultry plant in Gainesville, Georgia for testing and evaluation by Georgia Tech. Tests were run on multiple days with various sources, such as, plant water effluent both before and after the plant’s DAF system. The most rigorous test is the plant water effluent taken directly from the plant before going through any in- house treatment. Samples were taken of the untreated effluent and at each stage of the process. These samples were tested and certified by the Georgia Tech Research Institute ( see attached ASI report ARL0640 ). The results were very good with significant reductions in both chemical and micro-biological contaminants. To summarize the results: Test Untreated Effluent After Treatment % Reduction General Chemistry Total Dissolved Solids 1120 mg/L 18 mg/L 98.4% Total Organic Carbon 1080 mg/L 4 mg/L 99.6% Turbidity 5040 NTU .2 mg/L 99.99% Microbiology E. Coli 6,200,000 CFU/100mL 180 CFU/100mL 99.99% Fecal Coliforms 11,000,000 CFU/100mL 180 CFU/100mL 99.99% Heterotrophic Plate Count 37,000,000 CFU/mL 200 CFU/mL 99.99% These results validated the claim that the system will function and produce excellent results without the use of chemicals, which is a major expense with existing treatment systems. The project participants have successfully completed the grant requirements. The competed grant project has enabled AgriO3 and OzoMax to present their documented results to potential customers and seek a project to scale up their system for a total plant treatment system.

  9. From Test to Design Ozomax used these and other test results to develop a preliminary design for a waste water treatment plant for the purpose of recycling approximately 70% to 75% of the 700 gals per minute that this plant uses during processing. The water would be suitable for reuse in all phases of operation except Final Bird Wash and Chiller. This water would come from existing sources and would make up the 30% loss from sludge, removal evaporation and product absorption.

  10. CONCLUSIONS  Based on current cost of water and chemicals the ROI for the company would be less than Two Years.  This Ozomax AOP waste water recycling facility would bring bottom line costs down for the foreseeable future  This system would decrease or eliminate interface with government agencies concerning effluent discharge  Become a more environmentally friendly company COOLING TOWER AND RECREATIONAL WATER  OZOMAX INSITU AOP is ideal for cooling tower and recreational water use, such as water parks and swimming pools.  The OZOMAX INSITU AOP reduces or eliminates the need for chemicals in all these applications. This reduces costs and the health risks of exposure to trihalomethanes as well as overexposure to chlorine and other chemicals  It also reduces the need to store chemicals.

  11. The OZOMAX INSITU AOP systems for cooling tower and recreational water use are shipped as prefabricated units for easy installation.
