Solucorp Featured in United Press International Article 'Smart
Waste' Chemicals Fight Pollution WEST NYACK, N.Y., April 7
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Solucorp Industries Ltd. , a provider of
advanced technology solutions to the Remediation and Environmental
industries worldwide, announced today that it was featured in a
United Press International (UPI) article dated April 2, 2004 by
Charles Choi entitled, "Smart waste" chemicals fight pollution. To

The article discusses the significant, potential market for
Solucorp's latest technology process, Integrated Fixation Systems
(IFS). IFS can be incorporated into metal-bearing products, such as
bullets and batteries, during manufacturing, that render the
products non-hazardous at the end of the products' life cycle. The
following are excerpts of the UPI article, "New chemical technology
can nip pollution in the bud by neutralizing toxic metals as they
leak intosoils and water from waste such as junked batteries,
electronics or lamps. "Instead of just treating pollution already
affecting the environment, we're now preventing contamination from
occurring from anything metal or anything that discharges
metals,"Noel Spindler, director of technology for Solucorp
Industries in West Nyack, N.Y., told United Press International.
The novel technique could affect "a huge variety of sectors," said
technical consultant Peter Hurley of Blake International in West
Yorkshire, England. "If you look at the battery market alone, there
are 600 million units disposed of each year in the United Kingdom,
and billions more in the world market," Hurley told UPI. There also
are about 100,000 tons of lead pellets lying on the ground or
buried in North America just for shooting skeet, Hurley added, "and
the U.S. Army produces something like 800 million rounds in its
plants." About Solucorp Industries Ltd. SOLUCORP is one of the
