CORSICANA, TX, Feb. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. (OTCQB: MEEC) ("ME2C Environmental" or the “Company”), a leading environmental technologies firm, announced the signing of a multi-year contract renewal with an annual value expected to reach $1.5 million. Under the extended supply contract, ME2C will continue supplying its patented Sorbent Enhancement Additive (SEA®) technologies for mercury emissions capture.
“Our long-term supply customer in mercury emissions has received significant benefits from our mercury emissions capture technologies and expertise,” stated Richard MacPherson, CEO of ME2C Environmental. “This second contract renewal for a third plant at one of the largest utilities in the U.S. provides strong validation of our approach to mercury emissions.

“We are happy to continue to support the scalable needs of this major U.S. utility and look forward to growing our existing mercury emission customer base through this year,” concluded MacPherson.
