Waste-To-Oil Technology Selected as Modern Marvel
Renewable Energy Source Highlighted as Oil Prices Hit Record Highs

West Hempstead, NY – May 2, 2008 – Changing World Technologies, Inc.’s celebrated waste-to-oil technology will be featured as one of the country’s newest Modern Marvels in the History Channel’s hit cable series, which showcases America’s passion for ingenuity and innovation. Modern Marvels taped the technology in action at CWT’s Carthage, Missouri, biorefinery this week. The segment is scheduled to be broadcast later this year.

CWT’s Thermal Conversion Process (TCP) technology is the first commercially viable method of reforming organic waste into oil. The company’s Renewable Environmental Solutions subsidiary can convert approximately 250 tons/day of turkey offal and fats into approximately 20,000 gallons of a renewable diesel fuel oil and valuable fertilizer products. Local industrial customers use the renewable diesel fuel oil to hedge against rising energy prices and as a way to reduce their fossil fuel consumption and carbon emissions. Local farmers are also applying fertilizer to minimize their escalating costs and a way to secure a local supply.

The focus on CWT’s TCP technology comes as global oil prices continue to set and break new record highs. “Utilizing above-ground waste streams to create a renewable, environmentally sound domestic source of energy is one of our most promising options for breaking our virtual bondage to oil imports,” said Brian S. Appel, CWT Chairman and CEO. “Modern Marvels is a highly respected and highly rated forum in which to demonstrate the potential of waste-to-oil technology.”

About TCP CWT's Thermal Conversion Process reforms organic waste into renewable fuel oil, without combustion, incineration or toxic residue. TCP breaks down waste into its smallest chemical units and reforms them into new combinations to produce alternative fuels and specialty chemicals. The process emulates the earth’s natural geothermal activity, whereby organic material is converted into fossil fuel under conditions of extreme heat and pressure over millions of years. TCP uses pipes and controls temperature and pressure to reduce the bio-remediation process from millions of years to mere hours. TCP is more than 80% energy efficient.

By utilizing above-ground waste streams, energy produced by TCP does not add new carbon to the atmosphere, and therefore contributes to the arrest of global warming. In addition, it provides a solution for solid waste management while creating a renewable domestic source of energy without toxic emissions.

CWT has received worldwide attention for its successful demonstration plant in Carthage, MO. The company is currently developing plans to build additional plants.
