1 Covering Key Aspects  Technical  Environmental  Economic August 8, 2008 EthanolRecycle PaperRecycle

2 Topics  Ethanol  Energy  Location  Time line  Opportunity

3 Growing Demand For Ethanol New US Facilities 500 Million gallons in construction or planned

4 Corn Ethanol Drawbacks  Cropland Intensive  Impacts Food Supply  Higher Water Pollution Potential  Large Fossil Fuel Input  Low Net Energy Yield

5 Population = Paper Location, Location, Location RFA, 4/3/07 Source: Renewable Fuels Association, 8/1/07 Paper More Paper Even More Paper

6 Papernol Advantages  Converts Waste Stream to Revenue Stream  Resource from Local Community  Improves Local Economy  Minimal Transportation/Fuel Inputs  No Cropland Requirement  Fills in Gaps in Bio-Ethanol Map

7 Fermentation: Convert Glucose into Ethanol Distillation: Separate Ethanol from water Acid Hydrolysis: Dilute acid to generate glucose from cellulose Papernol -- Process Paper Sugar Ethanol CO 2 Molecular Sieve Pure Ethanol Preparation and Hydrolysis FermentationPurification

8 Papernol Outlook  Significant Potential in Ethanol Market  Economically Competitive with Corn & Switchgrass  Net Energy Positive 250% energy return  A Renewable, Non-Food Ethanol Source

9 Adding Stream Value Papernol More than 2:1 Stream Value 1 Ton of Paper at $150 ½ ton of CO 2 at $0.10 per lb ($100) 100 Gallons of Ethanol at $3 per gal ($300)

10 Time Line Lab Proof of Concept Medium Small Demonstration Pilot Integrated Processing Full Scale Production Lab Scale: 2008 – Proof of Concept Limited Testing Completed at UTC Engineering Labs Medium Scale: 2008-2009 Tested Using UTC Engineering Labs: Detail Mass Balance Energy Balances Simulation Preliminary Economic Analysis Pilot Scale: 2009-2010 Will Process UTC Recycle Paper 1 ton/day Location: Chickamauga Site Caruastar Plant Full Economic Analysis Capital Investment ROI Local Facility 50 ton/day Estimated Total Project Budget $3-5 million

11 Can Intech and UTC Papernol Work Together ? Opportunity
