Harmonic Energy Inc. (OTCQB: ASUV) (OTCBB: ASUV) is a company
focused on tire manufacturing and recycling, using an innovative
approach to energy efficiency and sustainability. Harmonic is
pleased to announce that it has acquired an advanced Carbonization
technology license from Kouei International. This acquisition gives
Harmonic the exclusive rights to North America and Europe for
technologies from Kouei Industries.
Kouei Industries is a Japanese engineering company that
specializes in thermal degradation and has over 30 years of proven
success. Kouei Industries Carbonization facilities currently
produce "green" diesel, high tension steel and premium carbon
black, all from scrap tires. Kouei Industries has constructed many
commercialized tire carbonization facilities for the recovery of
high grade commodities from waste/scrap tires.
Kouei Industries has partnered with Mitsubishi and Mitsui Bussan
to commercialize the production of high grade nanocarbons for use
in advanced scientific applications for manufacturing electronics,
computer chips, new polymers and specialized military equipment
applications.
For decades tires have been subsidized by government programs
which have led to tires being stockpiled or illegally dumped after
collection of the disposal fees, causing serious environmental
damage with an abundance of tire fires across the globe.
Harmonic's new technology acquisition allows tires to be fully
recovered into mainstream commodities that fit today's existing
supply chain while substantially reducing carbon dioxide emissions.
The carbon dioxide reduction is estimated based on the reduced
emissions released in to the atmosphere when compared to current
traditional methods of carbon black production by burning oil or
natural gas as the primary feedstock for commercial grade carbon
blacks.

About Harmonic Energy Inc.
Harmonic Energy Inc. is a company that focuses on a
comprehensive solution to the disposition of scrap tires worldwide.
Harmonic plans include the utilization of proven technologies that
ensure each scrap tire is either remanufactured and put back on the
road as a new tire or is completely recycled and reduced into
marketable chemical commodity products. Both the tire
remanufacturing and carbonization technologies that will be
utilized by Harmonic must be commercially proven and have viable
operating facilities not bound by subsidies.
Harmonic plans to be the first company to integrate these two
technologies to provide a comprehensive 'closed-loop' solution for
the management of scrap tires.
