CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA – April 22, 2011 – M·CAM, Inc. released its Patently Obvious® report today on the patent holdings of Ecosphere Technologies, Inc.

Ecosphere Technologies is a company potentially well-positioned to participate in the growing frackwater treatment market. Its patented Ozonix water treatment process is one of the few mobile frackwater treatment systems that does not use evaporation to treat water, but instead utilizes advanced oxidation and ultrasound technology. Its subsidiary, Ecosphere Energy Services, LLC, provides water recycling services to the natural gas industry through its mobile EcosFrac technologies, helping to reduce hauling and disposal costs to energy companies.

Ecosphere’s capabilities are supported and enabled by its portfolio of patented technologies. Ecosphere owns three US patents which describe and protect its Ozonix “cavitational reactor technology”””a process for treating contaminated water combining other technologies such as ozone, hydrodynamic cavitation, acoustic cavitation, and electro-chemical decomposition, in sequence.

The question stands: is Ecosphere’s patent-backed Ozonix technology investment worthy, or could weaknesses give rise to potential problems down the road?
