June 12, 2010 (FinancialWire) (Go to http://www.financialwire.net/?s=ftrdnwswnd for all of today’s featured news.) — Ecosphere Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: ESPH) displayed its non-chemical Ecosphere Ozonix water treatment systems at a press conference in New Orleans this week at Mid-Gulf Recovery Services, an event attended by world-renowned environmentalist and ocean explorer Jean-Michel Cousteau, as well as football greats Troy Aikman and Drew Bledsoe. The patented Ecosphere Ozonix systems do not use chemicals for water treatment and have been built specifically to remove oil and chemicals from seawater.

Cousteau, president of Ocean Futures Society, said that Ecosphere has been providing its technology to help major energy companies recycle their frac waters by eliminating chemical biocides, and that the systems should now be used to help restore the waters of the Gulf Coast.

Bledsoe said, "We have the technology and we know that it works. We feel we can make a difference down here."

Aikman and Bledsoe are investors in an Ecosphere subsidiary.

Glen Smith, chief executive officer of Mid-Gulf Recovery Services, said, "The Ecosphere Ozonix equipment is by far the most field-proven, non-chemical, high-volume water treatment technology on the market."

Ecosphere Technologies is a diversified water engineering and environmental services company. The company provides environmental services and technologies for use in large-scale and sustainable applications across industries, nations and ecosystems.
