FASC could be huge. Read the following news. It could help solve a lot of the pollutant problems in the world. For a small company like this it oculd be a major breakthrough for them. The news has not been released on any major newswires yet but I assume it will be soon. The volume today was amazing and this could be another major winner like EISQ. The float is a litle higher but the news looks awesome and it could really fly. ==================================================================== First American Scientific Corp announces KDS successfully processes sludge in Ireland eliminating coliforms and pathogens VANCOUVER, Jan. 31 /CNW/ - First American Scientific Corp OTC - BB (FASC) First American Scientific Corp (FASC) is pleased to announce the successful completion of its Phase I tests of the KDS processing system for bio-waste (sludge) at its research centre near Belfast, Ireland. The tests confirm that the KDS system will process sludge containing 75% moisture content on a continuous basis and reduce it to a fine talcum like powder. The process eliminates 100% of fecal coliforms, 99.9% of all pathogens, 99.8% of heterotrophic bacteria, and the end product is one quarter its original weight. Further, it has been determined that the end product produced during the process retains a high level of nutrients and nitrogen and is expected to have commercial value when used in fertilizers. Ongoing research grants awarded under the ''Radian Award Program'' have been extended to cover Phase II research costs which will include design improvements to the feeder pump system, the venting system, the temperature control and the rotor assembly. The goal is to maximize operating efficiency and increase the volume of throughput. New tests will also include the processing of animal waste, and other moisture laden pollutants. Upon the successful completion of the Phase II refinements, the KDS process is expected to provide an environmentally sensitive alternative for the disposal of municipal waste at a cost that is significantly below currently used incineration methods. Savings on transportation costs alone, due to the reduced weight, will make KDS a viable option financially, in addition to becoming a major contributor to the elimination of pollutants which are harmful to the environment worldwide
