1	Enviro Voraxial Technology Voraxial Separator for Separation of Oil and Solids From Produced Water
2	EVTN – Enviro Voraxial Technology Originally known as “Florida Precision Aerospace” Precision machine shop for aerospace industry – NASA Manufactured various parts, gyroscopes for satellites & even the Hubble Space Telescope Headquarters: Fort Lauderdale, Florida USA
3	Voraxial^® Separator A continuous flow turbo machine capable of separating Liquid/Liquid, Liquid/Solid, Liquid/Liquid/Solid Mixtures Rotor assembly creates a vortex with the heavier materials drawn to the outside of the vortex and the lighter elements forming the core of the vortex A specially designed manifold is utilized to collect the separated streams

7	Voraxial Separator Benefits No Pressure Drop – provides a pressure increase High “G” force Separation of 3 components simultaneously High flow, small footprint Treats a wide range of flows, even slugging flows High performance over a wide concentration range High performance over a wide flow range Low shear impeller – oils are not emulsified Non-clogging – open impeller Variable speeds to optimize separation Scaleable

22	Skid Results
23	Additional Results Performance not affected by changes in flow over a range of 2 to 1 Performance not affected by influent concentrations over a range of approximately 17 to 1
24	Polishing System Removes the final few ppm to meet <10ppm oil Media in filter cartridges or supplied as bulk media Removes 1 to 1.5 kg of oil per kg of media Removes fine droplets and emulsified oil Top to bottom flow or from outside to inside
25	Polishing, Option 2 Chemical injection on outlet of coalescer can be used Usually cationic water clarifier Approximate equivalent annual cost to solid media $50 to $100k/yr chemical consumption
26	"Flexible design to provide only..." Flexible design to provide only what is needed for each application Polishing is not always needed Solids separation is not always needed Does not necessarily need to be a skid Components can be shipped individually Individual units can be used to replace CPI or other separators Used in front of IGF or Hydrocyclones to remove solids and bulk oil Eliminates surges and improves performance of existing equipment Polishing systems available Media installed in filters or supplied as bulk
27	Testing with Gas Slugging Voraxial 2000 Skid Oil concentration varies from 0.5% to 2% Solids concentration - nominal Gas slugging up to 100% without any interference to separation performance No effect on Separation Performance
28	Project Skimmer With Oil Voraxial 1000 Separator Oil Skimmer located in pond to skim oil Voraxial connected to Skimmer. Oil is collected; water discharged back into pond
29	Oil field Applications Produced Water - Offshore and Onshore Transocean Deckwater Drainage System 2-way and 3-Way Separation Tar Sands Applications Refinery Industry Pre and Post Treatment for API Separator. Pipeline De-Commissioning Pre-treatment to IGF, DGF, Hydrocyclone, etc… Bulk Separation, Including Liquid/Liquid, Liquid/Solid and Liquid/Liquid/Solid
30	Summary No Pressure Drop Produces a high “G” force Flexible Has high separation efficiency Has higher reliability, lower maintenance Has a lower energy consumption per flow rate Performance not affected by flow over wide range Performance not affected by concentration over a wide range Separates 4 components simultaneously
