Dynamotive and BlueLeaf Inc., a Canadian private social purpose enterprise active in applied research concerning the environment, are pleased to announce results of a year long test in application of Dynamotive’s CQuest™ Biochar into commercial farming test plots.

First year results indicated an overall increase in crop yield that ranged from 6% to 17% in soils where biochar was applied compared to control plots. In addition, plots with biochar yielded higher plant density and greater root depth.

Barry Husk, President, BlueLeaf Inc., commented: “The results seen so far in this project are an indication of the benefits of using biochar in agriculture. They illustrate the potential for biochar to improve crop yields, as well as soil and water quality.”

Dynamotive announced that its wholly owned subsidiary Dynamotive USA, Inc. executed a long-term contract for the supply of feedstock for a planned 200 TPD BioOil® plant to be developed in southern Arkansas. Contract envisages the supply of 220,000 green tons per year of green residues (sawdust) for an initial term of 10 years with pricing linked to energy prices in the region. The contract was entered with Springhill Land and Timber, a leading producer of timber in the southeast which has a cooperative working relationship with over 25 hardwood sawmills in a four state area. Lamar Smith, owner of Springhill Land and Timber, commented, “This opportunity will be helpful to the timber industry in our area mostly because some of the products that are used we have not had a market for in the past.”

Dynamotive USA officials are working with El Dorado Chamber of Commerce, through its President & CEO, Mr. Don Wales in regard to development. The Company has been very impressed by the local enthusiasm for a plant. Dynamotive was attracted to Arkansas due to the State’s well-crafted alternative energy policies, which are among the strongest in the nation as a result of programs put forth by the Governor and State Legislature.

Dynamotive announced today that it has successfully produced significant amounts of renewable gasoline and diesel from biomass at its research facility in Waterloo Ontario through a novel two stage upgrading process of BioOil®.

The process developed by Dr. Desmond Radlein and his research team, involves pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass to produce a primary liquid fuel, BioOil, which is then hydro-reformed to a Stage 1 gas-oil equivalent liquid fuel that can either be directly utilized in blends with hydrocarbon fuels for industrial stationary power and heating applications or be further upgraded to transportation grade liquid hydrocarbon fuels (gasoline/diesel) in a Stage 2 hydrotreating process. The major by-product from lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis is Biochar which has emerging value for soil productivity enhancement and carbon sequestration. Dynamotive markets its Biochar under the trade name CQuest™.

Based on initial test and analysis, the Company currently estimates that it can deliver advanced (second generation) fuels from biomass at a cost of less than $ 2 per gallon of ethanol-equivalent fuel in facilities processing about 70,000 tonnes of biomass per annum (current scale of its 200 metric tonne per day plant).

President & CEO of Dynamotive, Andrew Kingston, was invited to participate in an interview with SmallCaps.us to discuss the history and future of the Company.

Dynamotive announced today that it had entered into a commercial agreement to support the development of a pyrolysis plant in China based on its proprietary technology.

In accordance with the agreement, Dynamotive will provide process and engineering support for the development of a plant to be located in the Henan province in the People’s Republic of China, being the first Dynamotive plant to be built outside Canada.

The plant will be developed by Hubei Xinda Bio-oil Technology Co., Ltd. (Hubei Xinda) in co-operation with Great China New Energy Technology Services Co. Limited (GCNETS) who is the exclusive licensor for Dynamotive’s technology in the People’s Republic of China.

Dynamotive under the terms of the agreement will provide technical support for the development. Fees for the technical support have been agreed for at $2,300,000 (two million three hundred thousand USD). Construction will take place in China and will be the responsibility of Hubei Xinda.
