TurboSonic Announces US$2 Million New Order From US OSB Producer
WATERLOO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - April 16, 2008) - TurboSonic
Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: TSTA), a global leader in the design and
supply of industrial air pollution control technologies, today
announced receipt of a US$2 million new order for a Gas Scrubbing
System for a US-based oriented strand board (OSB) producer, to be
delivered in this calendar year.
Edward Spink, TurboSonic's CEO commented, "This is the fourth
contract from this major OSB producer in the past two years, all of
which are for enhancement of their existing operations. Because of
our system's superior ability to remove particulate matter from the
gas stream, a $1.2 million savings in operating cost was achieved
using our proprietary design in the first installation. Particulate
removal is critical for downstream thermal oxidizer operation, where
deposition of contaminants affects performance efficiency and
maintenance cycles. It is noteworthy that a significant number of our
contracts are for upgrades to our competitor's installations,
confirming that we have raised the bar for performance."
TurboSonic Technologies (www.turbosonic.com) designs and markets air
pollution control technologies to industrial customers worldwide. Its
products help companies in the Cement and Mineral Processing,
Ethanol, Metals & Mining, Petrochemicals, Power Generation, Pulp &
