History is very important. It can tell us where we've been and sometimes give us an idea where we are headed.
Back in the pre-publicly trading days while BioCentric Energy was still known as BCEI, the officers of BCEI were closely tied with a company known as Sustainable Power Corp (SSTP). Sustainable Power Corp (SSTP) was a company founded and run by John Rivera.
HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jun 15, 2007 -- BioCentric Energy, Inc. (BCEI), as a follow up on our prior release dated June 8th, announces today delivery occurred from Iowa of 20,000 pounds of DDGS -- the by-product of Ethanol production -- to Sustainable Power Corp (Other OTC:SSTP.PK - News) in Natchez, Mississippi. The demonstration will entail utilizing the fully scaled Hydrolysis Pyrolysis unit, the same of which will be installed in BECI's Mason City, Iowa facility. The Rivera Hydrolysis Pyrolysis Solution demonstration will blend 50% ethanol Dried Distiller Grains Soluble (DDGS) and 50% imperfect soybeans to produce their bonding agent to build E-Diesel.
A host of the top minds in the biofuels arena will view this process next Tuesday in Natchez. Some of the attendees include Mr. D. Rodriguez - National Commissioner of Energy from the Dominican Republic, and Admiral Rahamas Lora, who will accompany Mr. A. Zucco - Secretary of Energy from the Dominican Republic.
The entire Board of BioCentric Energy will be on hand including Paul McGuire, whose thirty-eight year tenure includes being Senior Business Manager for General Electric in the development of cogeneration, Syngas and distributive power projects in the western United States and Canada. While there Mr. McGuire obtained Six Sigma - Green Belt Certification from the General Electric Company.
Other attendees will include Mr. Jerry Bloom, who recently accompanied California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger on his trade mission to China to promote the integration of alternative energy into China's resource plans, and is a Plasma Gasification Specialist in Process Engineering for Ethanol & Syngas. Finally, yet most importantly, he is a representative from U.S. Military Procurement Department, who expressed extreme interest in the low heat signature attribute delivered in the Rivera Hydrolysis Pyrolysis Solution biofuel.
Mr. Tortorice, President of BCEI, stated, "For an exact replication of our plans in Mason City, we had the DDGS feedstock shipped from our future supplier in Mason City and have retained an independent laboratory to document the entire process. We also have a film crew coming down to create a documentary of the Rivera Solution. Now is our time for rapid plant deployment, which will replicate this low-cost Cellulosic Ethanol solution throughout our great country."
Jack Tortorice went on to state this morning, "We at BCEI know what Mr. Rivera has created and what an impact the Rivera Hydrolysis Pyrolysis Solution will deliver for our country. This assembly of knowledgeable humanity is to map out the delivery mechanism for our part to energy independence and fulfilling our mission. We at BCEI gratefully consider this daunting task as the culmination of our professional careers... inform, educate, build trust and deliver the business that SSTP so highly deserves."
John Rivera was touting a pyrolysis solution biofuel in the article and BCEI was claiming that they too were installing Hydrolysis Pyrolysis units similar to the Rivera unit at their Iowa facility.
John Rivera also rain another company at the same time called U.S. Sustainable Energy Corp (USSE) now known as Zeons Corp (ZEON). His big claim with this company was the Rivera Fuel Process (RFP) which he claimed gave a fuel with less than 1% water content. Others, competitors have 15 to 30% water. RFP has reformulated, changed the chemistry, and used the hydrogen in that 30% water to form more high energy fuel output with a higher btu count than can be gotten with the 30% water biofuel competitors.
This September 5, 2008 PR from Biocentric Energy remains me a lot about some of the John Rivera claims about creating fuel and electricity:

California-based BioCentric Energy Inc. announced Sept. 2 that it has agreed on the terms and conditions of a Memorandum of Understanding to merge with AutoMax Group Holdings Inc. When the merger occurs the company’s name is expected to become BioCentric Energy Holdings.
BioCentric Energy Holdings is currently developing a biomass project though it’s subsidiary, BioCentric Energy Microwave LLC. The project involves developing a solution that utilizes a proven technologically advanced microwave solution to produce energy from waste products. According to Dennis Fisher, BioCentric Energy’s president and chief executive officer, the company has identified two waste products with a high oil yield. Although Fisher said he can’t name the products due to confidentiality concerns, he said the products are generally considered worthless waste.
Fisher said one product is organic and can yield 65,000 gallons of oil per day. The other product contains oil and has components that can be used to make syngas. BioCentric Energy has already secured the property and technology needed to manufacture the products, and is negotiating ten-year feedstock contracts for both products. “Once that comes to fruition, the actual machinery itself is sitting and ready to go,” Fisher said.
The project is designed to create electricity and oil, which can be used to produce biodiesel. Fisher said the oil produced from the products falls between soybean oil and rapeseed oil in quality, and doesn’t come from a food product. The facility will be located in near Houston, Texas, and is expected to begin producing in May or June 2009
And from an archived version of the BioCentric Energy web site from 2008:
I guess the fuel stuff never worked out as planned. What ever happened to the Iowa facility?
John Rivera's Hydrolysis Pyrolysis Solution and Fuel Process (RFP) turned out to be nothing but frauds as were most of his claims he would release about his companies in press releases and filings. He is currently in litigation by the SEC for his false claims and pump & dump scams included false PRs about mergers and dividends.
