October 11 - BTX
Holdings, Inc. Selects Dependable Hydraulic and Hydrostatic
Service to Assemble the BRT Machine
BTX
Holdings, Inc., (BTXO) a development stage company that
specializes in the development and acquisition of technologies
to extract useable products from biomass, today announced that
it has selected Dependable Hydraulic and Hydrostatic Service
to fabricate and assemble it's BRT machines. The BRT machine,
when completed, will be sold to customers that generate
considerable quantities of wet biomass waste, such as
supermarkets, terminal markets, transfer stations and catering
halls. The BRT machine can reduce the weight and volume of wet
waste by over 50%, resulting in significant cost savings in
wet waste disposal for our customers.
"Dependable Hydraulic is an ideal company to build our
BRT machines. The machine is built around hydraulics, and
Dependable has long been known to do top quality work in this
field," said Scott Silverman, the President and CEO of BTX
Holdings. "Dependable Hydraulic Co-Owner Chris LaRossa has
provided invaluable support through the development process.
He is forward thinking enough to want to be part of this new
and exciting advance in wet biomass waste processing and
disposal." BTX has acquired, is developing, or is in the
process of acquiring the global rights and/or patents to
multiple biomass reduction and alternative fuel feedstock
separation and production technologies. The Company's
processing technologies utilize two methods to separate the
various biomass fractions: wet separation or dry separation.
In the single phase process the end products can be utilized
in their current state. In some cases methods may be combined
in a multi-phase process to derive secondary value added
products which can then be sold into the
marketplace.
"We are
confident in the abilities of Chris and his team," added
Silverman, "and can rest assure that every BRT machine will be
built with the utmost attention to quality."
About BTX Holdings
BioTex
Corporation was established in 2003 to develop and employ
technologies from around the world to process biomass (plant
derived) waste, extract the usable fractions, and then utilize
or sell those extractions in further downstream processes.
Many of these waste streams have traditionally been disposed
of either by dumping into landfills or by burning. BioTex has
acquired, developed or is in the process of acquiring several
extraction and separation technologies which can process this
waste to derive value added products, such as alternative
energy feedstocks, cellulose, fiber, oils and essences, and
others.
BTX
Holdings, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary, BioTex
Corporation's mission is to become the premier global biomass
processor by utilizing our various processing technologies,
and deriving value added products from their use.

October 5 - BTX
Holdings, Inc. Receives Patent for Citrus Separation
Technology
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., October 5, 2006 BTX Holdings,
Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: BTXO), a development stage company
that specializes in the development and acquisition of
technologies to extract useable products from biomass, today
announced that it was granted U S Patent #7,060,313 by the
United States Patent and Trademark Office for its Citrus
Separation Technology. BTX acquired the patent pending in May,
2005 and waited over a year for the patent to be issued. The
CST can process the citrus waste that remains after fruit is
juiced. Juicing operations in the United States alone generate
3 million tons of citrus peels and pulp annually. The majority
of this waste is currently treated with chemicals, dried and
pressed into pellets and sold as cattle feed, often at a
financial loss to the juicing operation. BTX Holdings
revolutionary CST process instead extracts from the raw citrus
waste a very high quality feedstock for ethanol production or
as a beverage base, oils and essences for use in the
flavorings and perfume industries and a dry product which has
myriad uses including pectin production and food filler. The
Company estimates the market for these products could be in
excess of $500 million per year in the US alone.
Now that we have been granted the patent to this
revolutionary process, we can begin our marketing and
deployment efforts, said Scott Silverman, the president and
CEO of BTX Holdings. We believe that the CST will provide a
solution to the increasing problem of disposing citrus juicing
plant waste, while creating profit from where there is
currently loss.
BTX has acquired, is developing, or is in the process
of acquiring the global rights and/or patents to multiple
biomass reduction and alternative fuel feedstock separation
and production technologies.
