THURSDAY , SEPTEMBER 08, 2005 08:33 AM
MOUNT ARLINGTON, N.J., Sep 08, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) --Greenshift Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: GSHF) today announced the formation of Tornado Trash Corporation ("TTC"). TTC is a development stage company whose focus is to develop and deploy innovative green technologies designed to minimize and eliminate the practice of landfill disposal by converting trash into valuable metals, chemicals, plastics, fuels and energy.
GSHF plans to license an array of green technologies to TTC, including the Tornado Generator and Ovation Product's Clean Water Appliance. GSHF plans to take TTC public in the fourth quarter this year and GSHF intends to pay a dividend of the newly public TTC shares to GSHF shareholders at that time.
TTC plans to staff up during the balance of Q3 2005, and then expects to acquire its first site co-located at a small municipal sold waste landfill in the eastern U.S. In addition, the company's objective is to design and introduce residential and commercial scale Tornado Waste Processing Appliances. INSEQ Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: INSQ) shall play a vital role in the design and production of these devices.
Kevin Kreisler, chairman and chief executive officer of Greenshift Corporation, adds "While the technology has demonstrated an environmentally friendly and cost effective method to eliminate the need for additional land fill sites, our ultimate objective is to scale the technology for residential and commercial applications. Imagine the quantum changes made when these Greenshift Technologies are taken to the source (our homes and businesses). We essentially eliminate the need for Water, Sewage and Trash Removal Infrastructures."
