Xebec Announces Second Landfill Gas Upgrading Order from China's Beijing Golden Green Environmental Engineering

BLAINVILLE, QC, June 26, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - Xebec Adsorption Inc. (TSX: XBC) ("Xebec"), a provider of biogas upgrading, natural gas and hydrogen purification solutions for the clean energy market, announced today that it has received its second purchase order for a BGX kinetic landfill gas separation system from China's Golden Green Environmental Engineering & Technical Co. Ltd. (Golden Green). The System will be installed in early 2013 at a landfill in Anshan City. The upgraded landfill gas will be compressed and used as renewable fuel in the transportation sector.

Xebec's customer and partner, Golden Green is a leading Chinese environmental engineering firm that specializes in landfill engineering and remediation work. This second purchase order from Golden Green is part of the broader distribution agreement signed earlier this year between the two companies.  This exclusive agreement calls for the potential delivery of 15 upgrading systems over the next 4 years.  The value of these small to medium sized upgrading systems range between CDN$1.7M to CDN$5.5M each, depending on the landfill gas flow rates and gas composition. All systems will be designed, manufactured and cost optimized at Xebec's Shanghai facility.

Xebec's ability to separate higher levels of nitrogen (N2) and oxygen (O2) from landfill gas sites, while maintaining excellent recovery rates at around 90% continues to offer solid competitive advantages for customers.  Less effective equipment providers offer significantly lower recovery rates, and therefore lower associated revenues for customers using these systems when compared to Xebec's BGX.

The majority of current landfill gas projects in China are for electricity generation, but as the price of natural gas in the Chinese transportation sector increases, landfill operators are looking increasingly towards upgrading the gas to higher value transportation fuel.  Xebec and Golden Green will continue to focus on the 150 to 170 medium sized landfills in China that qualify for upgrading landfill gas to renewable transportation fuel.

"This second BGX landfill gas order is a further step forward for Xebec in the Chinese landfill gas market, further reinforcing our technology advantage and market opportunity," stated Graham Robson, Xebec's Vice President for Asia/Pacific Operations.  "We look forward to expanding our relationship with Golden Green and anticipate many similar orders in the months and years to come."
