Press Release Body: Green Bay, WI (September 25, 2007)- FEECO International, Inc. is
featured in the US Industry Today Magazines current issue. The article entitled
"Fertile Business" is based on how FEECO International provides a range of
customized engineering, equipment, manufacturing and construction services for the
power / utility, paper, fertilizer, chemical processing, mining, and other related
industries around the world. David Soyka reports on synergies developed from over a
half century of engineering problem solving that add innovative value to a
re-vitalized ethanol industry.

One way in which FEECO brings value to the ethanol industry is in its development of
a versatile, more energy efficient system to process distillers' dried grains with
solubles (DDGS) from the ethanol process. With more than 40 years' experience
designing and fabricating counter-flow rotary drum coolers and rotary dryers FEECO
has introduced the counter-flow rotary cooler for DDGS to the ethanol industry,
having demonstrated expertise and understanding of the subtle difference between
rotary drum counter-flow coolers and co-flow dryers. FEECO combines this expertise
with a reputation for robust construction to provide an efficient, effective
counter-flow cooler. Here are a few excerpts from the article:

FEECO is convinced that the ethanol business model can be financially improved and
has the ability and expertise to prove it to anyone who wants to work with them.
Everyone out there is building ethanol plants with their main revenue stream coming
from the sale of ethanol. The by-products of the plant either show up in the expense
line or have minimal impact on their income statement. FEECO looks to see if it can
generate new and innovative products that really add to the bottom line.

FEECO is certain that the energy balance in the ethanol industry has room for
dramatic improvements and currently is working diligently on a new dryer conception.
In addition to the rotary cooling and drying industry, two other drying technologies
may also streamline the byproducts into more efficient conversion to solids. This
testing is currently taking place in a lab environment with commitments for
commercialization set for 2008. If FEECO is proven right on the first of these
technologies, it will significantly alter the energy balance. If it is right on the
second technology, it will have industry shattering results.
