Rollout of DX-12 at 650 Stores
BioQuest Technologies Announces ‘Great Success’ with 16 Store Test at Tire Kingdom
Company to Rollout DX-12 Degreaser in All 650 Tire Kingdom Stores
JUPITER, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BioQuest Technologies, Inc., (Pink Sheets:BQTG), a leading developer of innovative, environmentally safe antimicrobial products, today announced it has completed a 16 store test of its DX-12 degreaser product with Tire Kingdom, the largest independent tire and automotive services retailer in the U.S. The successful test has led Tire Kingdom to approve DX-12 for a nationwide rollout of all 650 Tire Kingdom stores coast to coast.
DX-12 driveway cleaner is a revolutionary new product which effectively cleans an extremely wide range of oils, greases, transmission fluids, and other troublesome contaminants from all driveway surfaces with minimal deleterious effects on the environments or the surfaces cleaned. DX-12 is water-based and contains no caustics, acids, petroleum solvents or phosphates.
“We have had great success with our test of DX-12 and the bay cleaning program at Tire Kingdom,” said Arne Rotne, President of BioQuest Technologies, Inc. “Our product is much safer for the Tire Kingdom staff since it is environmentally friendly and it has better cleaning properties providing a stronger, more intense deep cleaning of the store bays. The nationwide rollout of DX-12 by such a reputable retailer like Tire Kingdom is a testament to the proven effectiveness of our powerful water based cleaners and degreasers. We are aggressively pursuing other relationships similar to this one and anticipate we will be very successful in product placement.”
Chicago-based Schwarz Supply Source will offer the North American distribution for the Tire Kingdom program with the DX-12 product. Schwarz Supply Source has been a national leader for over 100 years in the distribution of packaging and other supply items for some of the biggest retailers in the U.S. Schwarz Supply Source serves over 30,000 unique locations nationwide.

Headhunter receives new Patent for Method of Wastewater Treatment
www.megayachtnews.com
Press Release:
Jun 21, 2007
Fort Lauderdale Florida USA, Thursday, June 14, 2007:
After nearly two years under review, on February 6, 2007, the United States Patent and Trademark office recognized the efforts of designers and engineers at Headhunter Inc of Fort Lauderdale Fl. with patent on a new method for treating wastewater. Among the many unique features of this new method is a patent on using cross-flow filtration for separation of solids in the process.
TIDALWAVE HMX® compact sewage treatment systems are U.S. Coast Guard certified Type II Marine Sanitation Devices that are also IMO Approved for worldwide compliance with Annex IV Regulation 3(1)(a)(i) of Marpol73/78, which provides regulations for the prevention of pollution by sewage from ships. These units are accepted in accordance with Resolution MEPC.2(VI) which outlines the performance standards required. Standard models are available to treat up to 50,000 US Gallons per day (189 cubic meters per day). These systems provide PLC controlled, state of the art processing of onboard sewage. Designed for quick starts and stops with the push of a button, the TIDALWAVE HMX system uses chemical oxidation, hydro-maceration and patented crossflow separation techniques to thoroughly destroy influent biomass. The optional Electrocatalytic system generates sodium hypochlorite onboard from seawater or brine, thus eliminating consumables during operation. The four-stage treatment system provides trouble free treatment of black and gray water with a sterile effluent for disposal. The PLC controller allows the treatment technique to be customized after installation for varying hydraulic and organic loading conditions, or to meet varying performance standards in different areas. These systems are provided in marine grade aluminum or steel construction with a durable, flexible ceramic, epoxy coating for superior corrosion protection.
To date nearly 100 HMX systems have been installed on yachts, drilling ships like Global Sante Fe’s Arctic IV, and a few very large fixed offshore structures for the production of natural gas in Brazil. Captain John Beadon of the M/Y Montrevel has had an TW-HMX 512 installed on a charter yacht since early 2004. A recent email to Headhunter is an unexpected testament to the reliability of the system, Captain Beadon wrote “Dear Mark,……As we have done about 11,000 hours during the last 3 years, is there anything on the unit that you suggest replacing other than the spares that you will be pricing? We are out of the water in Genoa, launching end Feb. Regards, John” The systems were conceived specifically for the marine industry where small spaces, light weight, and reliability above all else is the design criteria.
Headhunter Vice President of Sales mark Mellinger reports, “Everyone in the marine industry is familiar with the reverse osmosis process for creating fresh water from seawater, now Headhunter has mastered the application of this technique as applied to the wastewater treatment process. Further to this we have created a process, a recipe, that can be varied to meet the new IMO standards once they are ratified. We are very excited.”
