MagneGas Expands Michigan Operations By Adding City Recycling As Customer

TAMPA, Fla. -- MagneGas Corp. (OTCBB: MNGA), developer of a technology that converts liquid waste into a hydrogen-based metal working fuel and natural gas alternative, announced that new Michigan customer City Recycling Inc. has taken its first order of MagneGas, which will be used throughout its metal-cutting operations.

MagneGas will be supplying its product to City Recycling from its Michigan-based refinery, which opened April 9.

Located in Detroit, City Recycling is a full-service metal recycler and processor with a solid reputation for speed, efficiency and customer satisfaction. The environmentally friendly recycling center has been serving Southeast Michigan and Metro Detroit for 20 years.

"MagneGas is a dynamic fuel for our metal-cutting operations and will serve as a cheaper and more productive alternative to propane and acetylene," said Mark Wierszewski Jr., vice president of City Recycling Inc. "We look forward to using it extensively in metal cutting as we continue to operate as an environmentally friendly recycler."

Added MagneGas president Scott Wainwright: "Adding City Recycling to our stable of clients demonstrates that we are continuing to successfully execute on our growth strategy. Customers immediately see the benefits when using our fuel, as well as the cost savings potential for their company. We are excited to work with City Recycling and are confident this will be the start of a long-lasting business relationship."
