NanoStruck Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) (CNSX:NSK)
(OTCQX:NSKTF) (Frankfurt:8NSK) announces a new sales contract with
Buttcon Limited, a Canadian general contractor specializing in
industrial, commercial, institutional and high-rise residential
construction. The Company will supply a wastewater treatment plant
for Metrolinx, the public transportation agency for the Greater
Toronto and Hamilton Area, which operates the regional public
transit service, GO Transit.
Bundeep Singh Rangar, Chairman of the Board commented, “We are
delighted to collaborate with a company that works closely with the
regional public transit service for the Greater Toronto and
Hamilton Area.” Today’s announcement paves the way for the Company
to look at further revenue generation opportunities from the mass
transit sector.
The contract is for the supply of a plant to treat wastewater at
the GO Transit Halton Hills Bus Facility just outside Toronto,
Ontario. The plant, which utilizes NanoStruck’s proprietary
NanoPure technology, removes aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons,
oils, grease, xylene, benzene, toluene and phosphates from
detergents, all of which are present in the wastewater produced at
the GO Transit facility as a result of pressure washing of buses
and trucks. The objective is to meet or exceed environmental
standards for the release of the water or re-use it for washing the
buses.
The GO Transit Halton Hills facility operates a bus wash, a
larger version of a commonly used car wash. GO Transit is the
regional public transit service for the Greater Toronto and
Hamilton Area (GTHA). It is an operating division of Metrolinx, an
agency of the Government of Ontario, with overall responsibility
for integrative transportation planning within the GTHA.
About the Company
NanoStruck Technologies Inc. is a Canadian Company with a suite
of technologies that remove molecular sized particles using
patented absorptive organic polymers. These versatile biomaterials
are derived from crustacean shells or plant fibers, depending on
how the technology is being used. Acting as molecular sponges,
the nanometer-sized polymers are custom programmed to absorb
specific particles for remediation or retrieval purposes. These
could be to clean out acids, hydrocarbons, pathogens, oils and
toxins in water via its NanoPure solutions, or to recover precious
metal particles in mine tailings, such as gold, silver, platinum,
palladium and rhodium.
By using patented modifications to conventional technologies and
adding polymer-based nano-filtration, the Company’s NanoPure
technology offers environmentally safe solutions for water
purification. The Company uses Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) and World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines as a benchmark
for water quality and safety to conform to acceptable agricultural
or drinking water standards in jurisdictions where the technology
is used.
Additionally, the Company’s technology can be used to recover
precious and base metals from mine tailings, which are the residual
material from earlier mining activities. By retrieving valuable
metals from old tailing dumps, the Company’s NanoMet technology
increases the value of existing mining assets by recovering
precious metals that were previously lost.
The Company’s current business model is based on either selling
water remediation plants or leasing out units and charging
customers on a price per liter basis with a negotiated minimum
payment per annum. For processing mine tailings, the value of
precious metal recovered is shared with tailing
site owners on a pre-agreed basis.
