Investorideas.com - Water Stocks News; Wescorp (OTCBB:WSCE) Updates 30-Day Operation of H2Omaxx Oil-Water Separation Technology at Cancen Oil
Investorideas.com - Water Stocks News; Wescorp (OTCBB:WSCE) Updates 30-Day Operation of H2Omaxx Oil-Water Separation Technology at Cancen Oil
New Data Expands H2Omaxx Performance Range - Effectively Reducing 40+% Contaminated Hydrocarbon Waste Water to Less than 12 Parts Per Million
CALGARY, ALBERTA - September 20, 2010 (Investorideas.com Water Stocks Newswire) - Wescorp Energy Inc. (OTC.BB:WSCE), a clean water technology company focused on implementing its low-cost solutions into several markets including the oil & gas and marine industries, provided an update today that the Company's H2Omaxx oil-water separation unit has completed its initial 30-day commercial operations at Cancen Oil Canada Corporation's New Sarepta facility. The Company has confirmed new operating capabilities for the H2Omaxx clean water technology; cleaning 40+% contaminated hydrocarbon waste water to less than 12 ppm oil.
Overview of 30 day operation – summary:
In July, Wescorp commenced a 30-day continuous commercial test of H2Omaxx to define a number of operating parameters, including heat requirements and treatment time.
The unit ran successfully and reliably, meeting Cancen's operational needs by treating approximately 3,500 barrels of contaminated fluid.
Unexpectedly, the fluid received was from oil sands operations, and was heavily contaminated with hydrocarbons. The oil/water mixture was in the range of 10-40% plus oil - contaminated. The H2Omaxx has historically treated oil/water mixture in the 3-5% range.
The H2Omaxx successfully treated the 40/60 mixture by cycling the fluid through the treatment process a number of times, rather than a single pass through which is normal for less contaminated fluid.
The batch treatment of the mixture achieved Cancen's standards for fluid disposal in its disposal well. While Wescorp was subject to the operational pressures of Cancen's site, Wescorp was permitted to undertake a multi-cycle treatment process of one tank of heavily contaminated fluid, under conditions which permit replication, in order to verify the operating range of the H2Omaxx.
Inlet and post-treatment outlet samples were taken. Lab results from ALS Laboratory Group establish that the H2Omaxx successfully received fluids contaminated at 40%+ (by volume) level, and discharged a cleaned fluid at less than 12 ppm hydrocarbons.
Treatment of this level of hydrocarbon contamination without extensive heat, chemicals or filters is, in Management's judgment, exceptional.
Wescorp believes that the next stage of testing should focus on defining what level of contamination requires only one treatment cycle, and what level of contamination requires repeated treatment cycles, also known as batch treatment.
"This 30-day operating period is important for several reasons," states Robert G. Power, Executive Chairman of Wescorp. "First, Wescorp's H2Omaxx technology has passed the research stage and we are now focusing on scalability and the range of hydrocarbon contamination to treat. Second, we have again proved the technology's operational reliability – a critical issue with many competing technologies.
"Third, we learned that the H2Omaxx can successfully treat fluids with a dramatically higher percentage of contaminates than historically treated. We believe that this expanded upper treatment range opens up significant new market potential.
"We caution readers that these results now need to be replicated in additional operating scenarios. The reality of oil field waste fluid treatments is that there is a wide range of hydrocarbon contamination and related chemical contamination. Further testing is required. However, these results demonstrate H2Omaxx's highly effective ability to clean some of the most contaminated waste in the oil industry without the use of filters, chemicals or heat."
H2Omaxx Technology
H2Omaxx has been proven to be a safe, effective, economical and environmentally friendly process for cleaning and separating oil and solids from water.
Using Wescorp's nano-aeration technology, previous independent test results have shown the H2Omaxx technology to reduce the oil content in produced water to less than 10 parts per million without the use of chemicals, filters or heat.
Use of H2Omaxx provides important cost benefits to the operator when compared with the traditional multi-technology approach to remediate water.
H2Omaxx can lower both the operator's capital costs and operating costs significantly. In addition, new revenues are created by the capture of barrels of oil that would otherwise be disposed.
The H2Omaxx technology has been designed to produce the H2Omaxx unit in a variety of sizes, including a mobile unit and commercial units (2,500, 10,000 and 65,000 barrels-per-day).
10,000 BPD Mobile Unit
Wescorp previously announced that it will be taking delivery of a new 10,000 barrel-per-day H2Omaxx unit, designed and built by K-Line Trailers Ltd. (www.klinetrailers.com). Because delivery of a component is not expected to be received by K-Line until mid October, Wescorp presently expects to receive the completed unit by early November. After completion of the commissioning phase, the mobile unit, which is designed to be rapidly transported to remote locations, will be available to be marketed for potential customer sites, initially in Western Canada. Wescorp also intends to market the unit's services in the Gulf of Mexico area.
The mobile, 10,000 barrel-per-day unit is designed to be placed swiftly on sites for the purposes of demonstrating the technology and for use for short-term commercial operations. The unit will have its own storage, separation and containment tanks, micro-aeration generators, and firmware and computer automation technology to allow water remediation with minimal human supervision.

Investorideas.com - Cleantech News; Leader on Clean Energy Joins World Bank
Daniel M. Kammen to head programs to foster low-carbon growth in developing countries
WASHINGTON - September 10, 2010 (Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire) - The World Bank today announced the appointment of Professor of Energy Daniel M. Kammen of the University of California, Berkeley as the organization's Chief Technical Specialist for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency. This is a new position created to provide strategic leadership on the policy, technical, and operational fronts. The aim is to enhance the operational impact of the Bank's renewable energy and energy efficiency activities while expanding the institution's role as an enabler of global dialogue on moving energy development to a cleaner and more sustainable pathway.
The appointment comes amid unprecedented demand from developing countries for World Bank support in their efforts to address development and climate change as interlinked challenges. This includes responding to the challenges in providing energy services to the one-and-a-half billion people who remain without access to clean, reliable, and affordable modern energy services.
"I am delighted that Dan Kammen will be joining the Bank in this critical role at this critical time," said Inger Andersen, World Bank Vice President for Sustainable Development "With Dan on board, we look forward to strong leadership and rich partnerships with many actors, in the public and private sectors, on this important topic."
"More than ever," Andersen added, "our client and countries are looking for solutions as they put in place economic growth and poverty reduction policies for their citizens today while taking into account the needs of the planet tomorrow. The supply and use of clean energy is a prime element in responding to both concerns. Dan's deep knowledge, broad experience, and extensive network of international actors working in this area makes him a perfect fit for this new position."

"The World Bank, with its cadre of seasoned staff already working in this area, is in a position to make incredible contributions to this push for global sustainability. I look forward to joining the organization, being a part of this exciting venture, and contributing to lasting solutions that enable countries to get and stay on a path of development that reduces poverty and provides for the well-being of generations to come," said Kammen.

Daniel M. Kammen to head programs to foster low-carbon growth in developing countries
WASHINGTON - September 10, 2010 (Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire) - The World Bank today announced the appointment of Professor of Energy Daniel M. Kammen of the University of California, Berkeley as the organization's Chief Technical Specialist for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency. This is a new position created to provide strategic leadership on the policy, technical, and operational fronts. The aim is to enhance the operational impact of the Bank's renewable energy and energy efficiency activities while expanding the institution's role as an enabler of global dialogue on moving energy development to a cleaner and more sustainable pathway.
The appointment comes amid unprecedented demand from developing countries for World Bank support in their efforts to address development and climate change as interlinked challenges. This includes responding to the challenges in providing energy services to the one-and-a-half billion people who remain without access to clean, reliable, and affordable modern energy services.
"I am delighted that Dan Kammen will be joining the Bank in this critical role at this critical time," said Inger Andersen, World Bank Vice President for Sustainable Development "With Dan on board, we look forward to strong leadership and rich partnerships with many actors, in the public and private sectors, on this important topic."
"More than ever," Andersen added, "our client and countries are looking for solutions as they put in place economic growth and poverty reduction policies for their citizens today while taking into account the needs of the planet tomorrow. The supply and use of clean energy is a prime element in responding to both concerns. Dan's deep knowledge, broad experience, and extensive network of international actors working in this area makes him a perfect fit for this new position."

Investorideas.com - OTC Stock News; HealthMed Services (OTCBB: HEME) Acquires Rights to Neural Communicator
Neural Communicator is intended for people disabled in such a way that they cannot communicate by speech or by using their body
Visit this company: www.healthmedltd.com
Thursday September 3, 2010 - (Investorideas.com Newswire) OTCBB Stock News- HealthMed Services Ltd. (OTCBB:HEME), reports it has entered final negotiations to acquire all rights, title and interest to Neural Communicator software and hardware.
Neural Communicator has developed brain/computer interface devices and software designed to enable people with extreme disabilities to communicate. The device detects eye movement, jaw contractions and ALPHA and BETA brain waves allowing hands free input.
Neural Communicator is intended for people disabled in such a way that they cannot communicate by speech or by using their body. Biofeedback is used for computer input and controlling the application features.
The software is based on plug-in architecture allowing easy implementation of new features. There are five basic modules:
Speech module - text input for speech replacement; GSM module - send and receive SMS; MSN module; Windows Live Messenger chat Book Reader - reading books by speech synthesis; and Web Browsing - special plug-ins for Bing Maps and Facebook.
The developers of the software and hardware will continue to work with HealthMed on an outsourcing basis in developing further applications for the Neural Communicator.
President/CFO John Popovic commented, "We are extremely keen on completing the acquisition of Neural Communicator. The product will bring easy communication capability to those currently unable to communicate as well as expanding the communication ability of others with disabilities restricting their communication capacity. Acquiring this leading edge technology expands HealthMed's product lineup and will position us strongly in the marketplace."

Investorideas.com Reports on the Pulse of Economy; Small Business Fighting Back; Investors Still Cautious
August 26, 2010 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investor Ideas, an investment research portal specialized in sector research, reports on the pulse of the economy based on its internal data from online activity, interaction with investors, small cap company CEO’s and the financial community.
Investorideas.com is an online meeting place for investors, public companies and entrepreneurs in leading sectors including cleantech, energy, mining, water, Homeland Security and other high profile sectors.
Investorideas.com audience is global, with its predominant audiences and customers in North America.
Investorideas.com President, Dawn Van Zant reports:
“In May Investorideas.com reported, “The past few months have been the best in the past two years in terms of new advertising dollars, new business and strategic partnering. That sales momentum from online advertising was short lived and was as unstable as the market but new business has recently picked up again -but this time from a different source. Now its small business spending again and looking longer term.
Management of small companies that we deal with and talk to are working harder then ever and being more creative than ever to keep their business running through difficult times. Small business feels very much on its own, carving its own path through the turbulence.
I had a conversation today with a CEO of a struggling company that also gave startling insight as to what he sees behind the scenes in the American Economy. He said he has talked to a growing number of unemployed workers that have given up and now turning to a mentality of seeking more from the Government in terms of compensation and handouts instead of looking for new opportunities and rebuilding their own lives. He felt this sentiment was growing in numbers.
At the beginning of the year investors were spending on our site with memberships and stock directories and now that has scaled back significantly with investors only coming in and spending on our site when we have several positive up days in row in the market. Investors are very cautious but still actively searching for information and more importantly- leadership and direction.
We have seen recent activity and interest come through our site in the water sector as smart money looks for opportunities in the water space. “
What does this mean for the capital markets and investors? The spirit and heart of small business is still very much alive – so there is opportunity our there if you look for it. Investors are looking for leadership – maybe they are looking in the wrong places. Look at innovation, change and direction from small business instead of Government data and media sentiment. Small business is the driving force of the economy.
Maybe Government and Media should also spend more time and attention looking at small business as well, and how to motivate, incentivize and help it find its way back.

We have seen recent activity and interest come through our site in the water sector as smart money looks for opportunities in the water space. “
What does this mean for the capital markets and investors? The spirit and heart of small business is still very much alive – so there is opportunity our there if you look for it. Investors are looking for leadership – maybe they are looking in the wrong places. Look at innovation, change and direction from small business instead of Government data and media sentiment. Small business is the driving force of the economy.
Maybe Government and Media should also spend more time and attention looking at small business as well, and how to motivate, incentivize and help it find its way back.

July 20, 2010 (Investorideas.com newswire) www.InvestorIdeas.com and its leading tech investor portal, Techsectorstocks.com issue commentary on ecommerce trends from Lisa Springer, CFA. Equity research analyst and financial writer, featuring eLayaway® (OTCBB: ELAY), a company that provides ecommerce solutions for consumers and businesses.
Layaway Programs Stage a Revival
Lisa Springer, CFAEquity research analyst and financial writerCompanies: eLayaway® (OTCBB: ELAY), Sears Holdings Corporation (NasdaqNM: SHLD)
Layaways plans are making a comeback. These plans, which allow cash-strapped consumers to pay for goods interest-free over an extended period of time, first appeared during the Great Depression, but their popularity waned in the 1980s due to credit cards. The recent resurgence of interest in layaway plans is attributable to credit card interest rates that continue to rise and growing reluctance by consumers to carry high credit card balances.
Because of Credit Card Act restrictions and the lingering recession, card issuers are raising rates to near record levels and tightening lending standards, making it more difficult and expensive for the typical consumer to borrow. According to CreditCards.com, the average interest rate on a newly issued credit card has increased to 14.43% from just 12.87% six months ago. To avoid high interest charges, consumers are trimming credit card debt, which fell for the 20th consecutive month in May, according to Federal Reserve data. At its peak in 2008 US credit card debt stood at $976 billion, but that balance has since plunged by nearly $145 billion. The average US household eliminated nearly $2,900 in credit card debt during that period.
Some consumers are using prepaid debit cards to make purchases, and spending for these is forecast to soar to $118.5 billion by 2012 from $8.7 billion in 2008, according to research firm Mercator Advisory Group.
Another popular solution is layaway plans, which allow consumers to make payments over time while avoiding high credit card interest rates. A recent national survey confirmed that 73% of Americans agree that layaway plans are a smart financial solution that can help them better manage their spending. In addition, 55.5% of consumers expressed interest in learning more about layaway as a year-round financial planning tool and 82.2% agreed they would rather forgo the instant gratification of financing their purchases in favor of using layaway.
Hundreds of retailers, including household names such as Toys-R-Us, Sears (Sears Holdings Corporation (NasdaqNM: SHLD) and K-Mart, have taken notice of this trend and begun offering layaway plans. K-Mart has experienced double-digit growth in its layaway program since re-introducing it in 2008 and K-Mart and Sears together brought in three million new customers through their layaway programs in 2008 and 2009. Sears recently decided to extend its layaway program to major appliances in response to a national survey showing 33% of consumers would consider using layaway for home appliance purchases and this retailer also plans to begin offering an extended in-store layaway program this fall.
Recently public eLayaway® (OTCBB: ELAY) has developed the Internet's first and only online payment system for layaway purchases and is thus ideally positioned to capitalize on this purchasing trend. ELAY uses a proprietary processor to calculate manageable periodic payments that make purchases affordable, and then deducts the payments automatically from the user's bank account via Automated Clearing House (ACH) on a schedule chosen by the customer at the time of the purchase. Instead of 14% credit card rates, the customer is charged a flat 1.9% fee. ELAY holds the periodic payments in trust at HSBC Bank and transfers the funds to the merchant when full payment is made. The consumer then receives the goods or services from the merchant. ELAY provides payment processing and support services while the merchant handles order fulfillment.
Over 700 merchants currently offer the eLayaway® plan on their corporate web site. Merchants see eLayaway® as a valuable tool for increasing sales and attracting customers who don’t have credit cards or access to traditional bank credit. Nearly half of all consumers don’t qualify for credit due to the current restrictive lending environment and there is a large portion of the US population that never had access to credit. According to the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.), 25.6% of US households, or some 80 million Americans, are "underbanked," some because they defaulted on a loan before, but many others simply because they lack a sufficient credit history. These consumers have trouble getting a bank account, let alone a credit card, even though they have never missed a loan payment. Retail banks are writing off these customers, who are unwilling to pay high monthly fees or overdraft fees or bring them multiple banking "relationships."
The eLayaway® program allows merchants to increase market share and make additional sales on an immediate basis while reducing the administrative requirements of traditional layaway. ELAY has quickly emerged as the leader in layaway payment processing. Since it began providing these services in 2005, ELAY has registered over 78,000 members and processed more than $4 million in payment transactions. The Company believes its addressable markets include both online and brick and mortar retailers, which together generate some $1.3 trillion in potential annual layaway sales, as well as sports, travel and health services. ELAY diversifies credit risk by generating revenues from multiple sources, including service/processing fees from merchants and consumers and interest earned from funds held in trust, and plans to begin offering a Merchant Advertising Program later this year.
