2006 PrimeZone Media Network
TAMPA, Fla., April 4, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Internal Hydro International Inc. (OTCBB:IHDR) (www.InternalHydro.com) announces that it has received the first scheduled materials concerning due diligence of the CAVD technology purchase from EFTI's subsidiary division WESCO. As part of the due diligence agreement and schedule, IHDR has received the first scheduled installment under the terms of the LOI. The first portion being the intellectual property, patent materials, and cost verifications for the Mobile, Alabama CAVD prototype facility. EFTI's recent release that the WESCO division would be moved from EFTI will have no effect on the timeline or actions under the LOI. IHDR is satisfied with the materials provided thus far and each party is committed to not only carrying on the timeline, but exploring ways to expand the relationship and agreement.
Under the time schedule, Wesco will also be operating the Mobile Facility in full production for examination by IHDR during April, 2006. Wesco has already hosted IHDR personnel at the Mobile facility, with ensuing approval of IHDR's experts of the facility. IHDR is working with European partners and parties for the immediate implementation of the CAVD technology in Europe. IHDR also has access to a manufacturer for the CAVD plants in Europe. Under the LOI, IHDR will be purchasing the Mobile facility, along with licensed rights for the European Union, and two states, being Alabama and West Virginia, with additional rights of first refusal for Tennessee, Illinois, Louisiana, Texas and Minnesota. EFTI will receive certain set amounts per state licensed, for the licensing into the EU and royalties per plant built.
"We are pleased with the intellectual property diligence received, and the accounting for the cost of the asset to be acquired from the Mobile facility," stated Craig A. Huffman, President and CEO of IHDR. "With the relationship between IHDR and the Wesco team this transaction will run smoothly."
"Due to the exceptional lines of communication that exist between our companies, we have been able to complete the initial phase of the due diligence ahead of schedule," stated Phillip Rappa, Wesco President and CEO. Rappa further stated, "We expect that the entire due diligence cycle will be completed within the time frame allotted, with a minimum of delays."
Importantly, IHDR will be implementing the deployment of its Energy Commander technology in both North America and Europe, and will be tying such deployment, where possible to the use of CAVD plants. Such uses for the Energy Commander in gas flows is use for the EC has always been known to exist since the technology was created since it can use both gas and liquid flows.
The CAVD technology was developed by EarthFirst to recycle tires and other waste by heating the material without burning it. The technology evolved from the Company's close working relationship with Oak Ridge National Laboratory and scientists from the newly independent states of the former Soviet Union. Based on the CAVD technology, EarthFirst's proprietary tire processing system produces usable energy and a broad range of valuable by-products, including steel, carbon, oils similar to kerosene and diesel fuel, and an energy-dense gas. EarthFirst burns tires in a vacuum at a third of the typical pyrolysis temperature, preserving tire components and satisfying even the strictest emissions regulations (as verified by Oak Ridge). The EarthFirst process relies on proprietary catalysts to convert tires at rapid rates. From a typical 20-pound passenger tire, EarthFirst's CAVD technology can recover nine pounds of carbon, for the manufacture of polymers; one gallon of oils, which can be used as fuels or industrial process oils; two pounds of steel; and 30 cubic feet of combustible gases to generate electricity. The Company's prototype, fully operational plant is located in Mobile, Alabama.

Internal Hydro Foresees Market Potential for Licensed CAVD Technology
Apr 4, 2006 4:40:00 PM
2006 PrimeZone Media Network
TAMPA, Fla., April 4, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Internal Hydro International Inc. (OTCBB:IHDR) (www.InternalHydro.com) announces that the CAVD process, recently moving to contract through a Letter of Intent with Wesco, has endless worldwide revenue opportunities. The CAVD technology was developed by Wesco to recycle waste tires and other waste by heating the material without burning it.
IHDR has the target of fielding 20 CAVD plants in two states under the licensing agreement. By manufacturing and operating a single 96 ton per day CAVD tire plant, carbon generated from the tires can range between 65-95,000 pounds per day. The value of this carbon is in the $0.20 per pound range which equates to income of $13,000 to $19,000 daily. The oil produced out of a 96 ton per day plant can range between 9-13,000 gallons of oil produced per day, which equates to $9,900 to $14,000 in revenue daily. The market of this oil is presently in the $1-1.10 per gallon range. The gas produced at a 96 ton per day plant, after scrubbing, can more than substantiate the energy requirements of the plant. Depending on the application and location, the products can be sold into their respective markets, or the gas and oil can be used to produce electricity for plant use and outside sales. Additional potential income from CAVD plants, when located in a KYOTO treaty participating country, can be derived from carbon credits. With the licensing for CAVD in Europe by IHDR, under Wesco estimates there can be an additional 20% in revenue for a typical plant. The potential market for all byproducts sold produced by the CAVD process both in the U.S. and abroad and based on a 25% market penetration can potentially have revenues in the billion dollar range.
The initial plan was to enter into the scrap tire market, due to the millions of scrap tires which are discarded worldwide and the billions of tires stockpiled. Scrap tire stockpiles are a global environmental problem. Current scrap tire and recycling disposition methods are not environmentally friendly or commercially viable. The CAVD technology is the cleanest and most economical solution for reducing the percentage of scrap tires. The CAVD process has overcome environmental and economical challenges due to the quality of the byproducts produced. All byproducts produced from the CAVD process are recognizable commodities. A typical 20lb. tire consists of the following byproducts: carbon, oil, steel, and gas. The carbon produced can range from 5-8lb. per tire equivalent and has many uses once refined. The uses range from the rubber industry, producing belts, hoses, door panels, etc., to the color pigmentation market, commonly referred to as dye. In some applications, the carbon can also be used as an energy source. The oil produced from the CAVD process typically ranges from 1.2 -- 1.5 gallons per tire equivalent. The fuel is similar to a No. 6 bunker and can be utilized either as a blended fuel or for industrial processes. It can also be sold to a refinery for blending purposes. Given the rise in the price of a barrel of oil today, the fuel derived from the CAVD tire process is an easily marketed commodity. Additionally, gases produced from the CAVD process can be used in a wide variety of applications. Typically, the process produces 12-16 cubic feet of combustible gas, which can be used to generate electricity. The steel produced from the CAVD tire process is a commodity that can be sold as scrap steel to that industry. By manufacturing and operating a 96 ton per day yearly revenues will range from 8 to 10 million dollars.
The CAVD process has also been successful in remediating other waste. Waste such as carpet, animal manure, and Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS) have been successfully tested at the prototype plant. These waste streams, and the recovery of raw material, have produced the recovery of rich oils and high methane gas. Applications worldwide should benefit by substantially reducing electrical needs and environmental problems. In addition, land fills that have stock piled such waste should benefit from reducing the volume of waste it currently stores and recovering high quality gases and oils.
