Bachelor's wives and maidens' children are well taught
You can add that post to your DD. LOL
Spreading FUD
My DD began as the pps was pushed up.
I guess you now must have EE.
Wow
EESO are on their way to Dearborn, Michigan, and Toronto.

Auto Fluff-What to do with the remaining 25%
The recycling of scrap metals from automobiles is a little known success story. While community and municipal blue box campaigns tout a 25 percent success rate, a 75 percent recycling rate for automobiles is often overlooked. However, the 25 percent that remains, called auto fluff, is a recycling dilemma that demands attention and solutions. Why?
Estimates indicate that 700 000 automobiles are disposed of in Canada annually, generating approximately 700 000 tonnes of ferrous scrap materials and 200 000 tonnes of auto fluff. Auto fluff is a complex mixture of non-ferrous materials including plastics, foam, textiles, rubber and glass. Because this fluff is complex and is contaminated with rust, dirt and a variety of fluids, its recyclability poses a challenge to Canadian shredding operators.
As well as the difficulties inherent in recycling auto fluff materials, Canada's recycling industry must also deal with recent auto manufacturing trends. In an effort to achieve better fuel economy and reduce emissions, automobile manufacturers are using lighter weight, non-metallic materials. Newer automobiles are manufactured using less metal, while the use of plastics and other non-ferrous components is increasing. The net effect leaves shredders with lower volumes of recyclable metal and greater volumes of auto fluff for disposal or recycling.
Consequently, the need to explore new and innovative ways to recycle auto fluff, or to recover valuable resource material from this waste, is an urgent environmental and economic issue. The National Research Council's Institute for Environmental Research and Technology works with Canada's plastics industry, auto manufacturers and shredding operators to identify opportunities to recover potentially valuable resources from this waste stream. Some options being investigated are the use of the material as an alternative landfill day cover, the combination of auto fluff materials with other recycled plastics to produce composite materials, and using shredded material as a pyrolytic feedstock to recover chemicals and fuels.

Recycling of auto shredder residue
Currently, about 75% of end-of-life vehicle's (ELV) total weight is recycled in EU countries. The remaining 25%, which is called auto shredder residues (ASR) or auto fluff, is disposed of as landfill because of its complexity. It is a major challenge to reduce this percentage of obsolete cars. The European draft directive states that by the year 2006, only 15% of the vehicle's weight can be disposed of at landfill sites and by 2015, this will be reduced to 5%. The draft directive states that a further 10% can be incinerated. The quantities of shredder fluff are likely to increase in the coming years. This is because of the growing number of cars being scrapped, coupled with the increase in the amount of plastics used in cars. In Sweden, some current projects are focusing on recycling of ASR material. In this paper some different alternatives for using this material are reported. The hypothetical injection of ASR into a blast furnace concentrating on ASR's effect to some blast furnace (BF) parameters has been completed using a blast furnace mass balance model. As a result, in principle, ASR can be used as reducing agent in the BF process if certain conditions are met. The particle size of ASR material must be controlled to ensure optimal gasification of the material in the raceway. Regarding the chemical composition of ASR, the non-ferrous content can affect the pig iron quality, which is difficult to rectify at a later point. The most attractive recycling alternative is to use the products obtained from pyrolysis of ASR in appropriate metallurgical processes.

VALUE IN SCRAP RESIDUE
Article from November 2003
IEPER, BELGIUM (Nov. 17, 10:30 a.m. EST) -- The stuff of Salyp NV’s business dreams is made of trash.
It arrives by the truckload, siphoned off from the residue of auto scrap yards that otherwise would have gone directly to a landfill: torn chunks of urethane foam the length of Salyp Chief Executive Officer Ivan Vanherpe’s forearm; hunks of black plastic the size of his fist; and twisted strands of wire and fabric, and unidentifiable parts that could be anything from rocks to oil-stained wads of paper.
It is all contained in automotive shredder res-i-due, the remains of junked cars once auto recyclers have claimed what is considered the valuable parts of the vehicle.
“This is polycarbonate, this is rubber,” Vanherpe pointed out from a mixed pile of scrap during a Sept. 18 interview at Salyp’s headquarters. “There’s foam. There are a lot of resources here that are just being thrown in a landfill, and people are paying to get rid of it. We have the impression that it is not waste, but it contains money. It contains plastics, it contains foam.
“We look at shredder residue not as a waste stream, but as a resource.”
And from the small town of Ieper in western Belgium — more known as a World War I battlefield than the home of technology start-ups — Salyp is running a pilot plant to prove its belief that recycling the residue makes economic sense, and is not merely an environmental showcase.
By the end of this year, the company will go into full 24-hour production separating out plastics, foam and metal from the scrap — also called fluff —- to continue proving out its belief in the system.
Recycling ambassador
The firm is an unusual ambassador for recycling. Salyp is backed by the Saelens family, which built a wide-ranging business based in Belgium including a new and used auto parts sales company. In the late 1990s, founder Hubert Saelens became interested in auto recycling and Vanherpe, a managing director of one of the holding companies, launched the corporate study.
He found that although there was an established auto recycling industry, it focused on the heavy metals that make up more than 70 percent of the car by weight. But 3 million metric tons (6.6 billion pounds) of other potentially recyclable material went to waste in Western Europe alone, considered too difficult or expensive to separate.
Researchers were on the case of finding automated separation techniques for a variety of those materials, though, and Salyp was born to pull together those various programs.
“We don’t come out of the plastics industry, we don’t come out of the shredder residue industry,” Vanherpe said. “We were looking at everything completely new.”
The new directive in the European Union overseeing disposal of vehicles at the end of their life has added interest to maneuvers aimed at recovering goods from shredder fluff.
By 2006, EU has called for industry to reclaim 85 percent of the materials in a car — by weight — at the end of its life. By 2015, that number climbs to 95 percent.
Standard recycling techniques claim about 75 percent of the weight from the metals alone.
“The 85 percent will be accomplished fairly easily, just from the metals and glass,” said Arjen Sevenster, manager of technical and environmental affairs for the European Council of Vinyl Manufacturers in Brussels, Belgium. “That is not the major concern. But going beyond, you must be able to recycle the plastics.”
Salyp began by signing a license with Argonne National Laboratory — the Argonne, Ill.-based facility operated by the University of Chicago for the U.S. Department of Energy — for its automated program to clean urethane foam sorted out of the waste stream to a standard ready for use on applications such as carpet backing.
That would cover less than 5 percent of the material in a metric ton of ASR, though, prompting Salyp to continue its research.
Salyp, though, is not a technology powerhouse on its own. Instead, it has gathered research, studies and techniques from a variety of operations to coordinate in one consolidated program.
In addition to the Argonne-developed system, there are machines by Central Manufacturing Co. Inc. of Groveland, Ill., and Separation Systems Engineering GmbH of Germany for various sorting programs. Each unit in a Salyp-coordinated package comes with a theme name based on constellations, such as Hercules and Aquarius.
Money in the scrap
Tied together in one low-maintenance system — and with minimal staffing requirements — the company has successfully mined the scrap for real money.
On average, 1 metric ton of ASR has an average yield of 2 percent of copper wire, which sells, on average, for more than $400 per metric ton. Nearly 3 percent is PU foam, valued at about $100 per metric ton; 4 percent is iron and steel that auto yards couldn’t access through normal procedures, worth about $60 per metric ton.
About 8 percent is mixed thermoplastics, which Vanherpe said the company can sell for about $70 per metric ton — even without further separation. The firm has successfully pulled both PVC and polyolefins out of the mixed plastics scrap line, however.
To make the economics work out even better, auto recyclers will pay to have the fluff hauled away. Entrepreneurs can access the ASR by slightly undercutting the cost scrap yards normally would pay to landfills to dispose of the material.
Items not recycled can be either taken to municipal energy generation plants, which are common in Europe, or head into a landfill once stripped of anything of value.
For an original investment of the Salyp-licensed program and equipment of about $3.5 million, a recycler can recoup costs within just a few years, Vanherpe maintains.
But the industry is not taking off yet. Auto yards are not interested, since it falls outside their regular operating procedure. Plastics recycling businesses have not shown any interest because of the mix of other materials.
“This is a question of educating the industry,” Vanherpe said. “Everybody supposes that there is nothing in [ASR], that there is nothing you can do with it. Or they think they cannot get anything out of it without a lot of handwork.”
But Salyp is not alone in chasing the concept.
It has signed with 21st Century Polymers & Associates Inc. to market the concept in North America, where outsiders are expressing interest — even if they have not put down any dollars yet.
Automakers through the Vehicle Recycling Partnership are working with molders to make and test parts produced with plastics siphoned from the ASR by Salyp.
The American Plastics Council and the Vehicle Recycling Partnership also are set to sign a five-year cooperative research and development agreement with Argonne National Laboratories tied into the same system Salyp uses.
“The opportunities looking ahead are amazing,” Vanherpe said. “The market is getting ready to grab onto this. It’s just a matter of time.”

False and misleading ????
"Our discussions have led me to set the individual sales goals for each of these 10 sales professionals at 2 million pens each by the end of 2008. We all feel this is a VERY ACHIEVABLE goal that can REASONABLY BE MET," stated Hochstedler.
All rise for the Judge
What happened to the Financing terms ???
From the PR :
As part of the financing terms I must increase the authorized shares.
A few weeks later the are selling shares because they have to pay the bills.
No more financing terms ????
We don't know the principles of pricing of the assets
Assets ?? Goodwill and Formulas = Hot Air
Dilution
Some of my clients were interested to buy a lot of EESO shares.
I recommended them not to buy EESO shares at this moment until Hochstedler announces that the dilution is over.
VESCOR Inc.
Does anyone know if Jared Hochstedler in private is a shareholder of VESCOR (How financed ?? EESO money ??)
or has EESO a participating interest in VESCOR ?? Minority stake ?
Is there a possibility of information retrieval about the memorandum of association of VESCOR ?
Thank you for your response.
You said it : MAYBE. Stop guessing.
Hi, new to the board.
When will Jared answer the questions asked by the posters from this board ??
Greetings from the Netherlands.
