MIDLW - All hype??? I don't think so. Exxon wouldn't waste their time testing it if it was crap.

The recently announced development of ethanol-based gasoline sales in the ''Golden State'' has opened up tremendous
opportunities for Arcon's DF-144. The market alone could represent as high as 7 million gallons per day and 2 billion in sales.
Arcon has developed a 100,000-gallon per day plant and is expanding to a variable 350,000 gpd jumbo plant. In simplistic
terms, ethanol for gasoline blending costs $1.20 per gallon and has a blend value of 115%. Ethanol is added to other
components such as raffenate napthas to make 87-91-93 octane gasoline.

Arcon's ethanol DF-144 (Dynamic Fuel 144) costs $1.05 per gallon and has a blend value of 165 octane. There are
tremendous cost savings to the blender by using only 12-20% of DF-144 per gallon of gasoline.
