| BURNABY, BRITISH
COLUMBIA--QuestAir Technologies Inc. (TSX:QAR ; AIM:QAR) announced today
that it has received an order valued at approximately CDN $0.6 million
for a QuestAir H-3100 hydrogen purifier to recover hydrogen from ethylene
cracker offgas at a petrochemical plant in Brazil.
QuestAir's H-3100 system will recover
hydrogen from offgas produced by an ethylene cracker being installed in
a new linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) plant located near Sao Paulo,
Brazil. The high-purity hydrogen product from QuestAir's H-3100 will be
used in the production of polyethylene.
Jonathan Wilkinson, President and
CEO of QuestAir said, "Ethylene cracker offgas is an important source of
cost-effective hydrogen to meet the burgeoning demands for hydrogen in
the petrochemical industry, and we are excited by the growth prospects
for QuestAir's hydrogen recovery systems in this application. The advanced
H-6200 hydrogen purifier that we have developed in collaboration with ExxonMobil
Research and Engineering Company is targeted specifically at larger capacity
applications in this market."
"In addition, this is our first sale
into Latin America, which represents a significant growth market for QuestAir,"
Wilkinson said.
