Mr. Furness holds patents in advanced oxidation water treatment and perfected inventions in various industries. He developed experimental systems for the deodorization of large-scale agricultural operations and also implemented large-scale scrubber operations to deodorize fumes from phenolic resin coatings. In the 1980’s, Mr. Furness devised a chemical stabilization process in conjunction with the California Department of Health Services (now the California EPA) to stabilize lead, cadmium, zinc and copper. This unique stabilization process successfully passed federal TCLP and the more stringent leaching requirements of the State of California. During the mid 1990’s, his efforts with several Wisconsin foundries and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, Bureau of Air Management, formed the basis of regulations defining air pollution standards for foundries in Wisconsin. Mr. Furness has published numerous articles and is a member of several professional organizations including the American Foundry Society, the American Chemical Society and the International Ozone Association. -------------------------------------------- Paul David Paulsen, Ph.D., PE, Vice President Dr. Paulsen has been the Technical Director of Furness-Newburge, Inc. since August 1999. He performs engineering design and research as well as oversees fabrication of advanced oxidation equipment manufactured by Furness-Newburge, Inc. He also serves as project manager for installations of the equipment. Dr. Paulsen holds a B.S. in Aerospace Engineering from Virginia Tech (1991), an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering from Georgia Tech (1992) where he specialized in combustion, and a Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering from The Pennsylvania State University (1998) where he concentrated in air pollution control. As a graduate student at Penn State, he conducted research on advanced oxidation systems for the removal of HAP’s and VOC’s generated by paint spraying and coating operations. The processes included air-phase destruction using ozone, water adsorption with regeneration using hydrogen peroxide and ozone, and activated carbon adsorption with ozone regeneration. As a Post-Doctoral Scholar at Penn State, he taught a water transport and treatment course and researched advanced oxidation systems for benzene and VOC removal at high production iron foundries. Dr. Paulsen has authored articles for Carbon, Ozone Science and Engineering and Foundry Trade Journal. He has given conference presentations at the ACS Colloid and Surface Science Symposium, the International Carbon Conference, and the International Conference on Advanced Oxidant Technologies for Water and Air Remediation. His professional memberships include the American Foundry Society and the American Chemical Society. -------------------------------------------- Lynn Furness, Chief Financial Officer Ms.
