MagneGas System Plasma Arc Flow TM Refining Systems
The patented Plasma Arc Flow™ Refinery gasifies various feedstocks into MagneGas™ (Anti-freeze is the preferred input for metal working; the Refinery can also process sewage, sludge)
• Electrodes are submerged in liquid waste and electricity is fired between them • The liquid breaks down to the atomic level, MagneGas TM bubbles to the surface for collection • The refinery runs quietly, completely sealed environment, emits no odor or noise pollution • Refinery has small footprint (~200 sq. ft.), mobility and ease of installation • Patented technology based on over 30 years of scientific research by Dr. Santilli

Our Revolutionary Fuel Product MagneGasTM Fuel
• Large End Market Opportunity - Currently produced for the $5 Billion metalworking market, as a replacement for acetylene, from a feedstock of virgin ethylene glycol (automotive antifreeze); Can also be refined from other liquids;
• Cost Effective in Metalworking - Acetylene cylinders are only deemed 80% usable. MagneGas™ cylinders are 100% usable and are sold at a 20%30% discount to Acetylene;
• Cuts Faster and Burns Hotter - MagneGas™ concentrates heat at the precise point of the cut, creating faster, higher quality cuts than acetylene every time thus improving the performance of equipment and productivity of employees;
• Cuts Cleaner - MagneGas™ can be used indoors with which the Company believes has lower toxicity than Acetylene; actually emits 12.5% oxygen; Welders report that MagneGasTM cuts cleaner and faster, produces higher quality cuts with a narrower kerf1, less slag, no top edge rollover and a smaller heat affected zone.

The “Hottest” Trend in Metal Working MagneGasTM is a Triple Threat to the $5 Billion Global Acetylene Market
1) It’s Less Expensive • Only 80% of Acetylene cylinders usable – MagneGasTM at 100% • A distribution partner estimates Acetylene costs have risen 50-60% over the last 5 years1
2) It’s Faster • BTUs directed, not dispersed – target area heats more quickly
