Vancouver, British Columbia / TheNewswire / December 13, 2017 - AREV Nutrition Sciences Inc. ("AREV" or the "Company") (CNSX - AREV), is pleased to announce that a second extraction system ("extractor") has been ordered from Alternative Extracts Inc. (AEI) for delivery to Jamaica.

The extractor arrived in Quebec today for modifications that will increase its production capacity from 20 litres to 80 litres. Once the modifications are completed, the extractor will be shipped to a preferred partner in Jamaica that is still to be determined. AREV is in discussions with two potential companies and will select the company that aligns with the company's vision.

The AEI extractor, removes oils without the use of destructive high-temperature, steam distillation or aggressive solvents and is the only known extractor to combine alcohol and CO2 supercritical and critical technologies in one efficient process. AREV's first system from AEI is the only known system to use ethanol, supercritical and subcritical CO2 technologies combined in a single system. It also allows more than one extract to be drawn from a single biomass, and for collection of extract fractions. The second system has been designed specifically to meet the needs of AREV's partners in Jamaica.

"We are very excited to be ordering our second extractor and look forward to expanding our network with a strategic partner in Jamaica," says Stephane Maher, CEO of AREV Nutrition Sciences Inc.

More details will be announced as final commitments are made. For further information, contact Stephane Maher, CEO at stephane@arevnutrition.com or www.alternativeextracts.com for information on the company's extraction systems.

On behalf of the Board,

Backgrounder of the AEI IP

FFE enables the extraction of fractions that are mostly lost when using common methods. In addition, yields match or exceed industry standards. The process uses food grade solvents that chill the biomass by adiabatic cooling while extracting at low pressures. The solution is passed into a collection chamber, which is held under vacuum. In this chamber the extraction agent evaporates and is recycled online after filtration and cleaning.

FFE technology is elegant, compact, fully scalable and economical compared to other methods. A fully functional plant with the capacity of processing 1,400 tons/annum of biomass can fit on 150 square metres of total floor space, compared with 1,000 square meters needed for similar capacity solvent or CO2 plant. These systems are fully scalable and can be expanded to process thousands of acres of hemp, hops or cannabis each harvest.

The key competitive advantages of the FFE process are that it:

  1. 1.Operates at lower temperatures avoiding the destruction of vital components.

  2. 2.Produces extract of superior quality and yields to those that are heated or x-rayed or micro waved.

  3. 3.Uses equipment manufacture and less expensive to operate.

  4. 4.Significantly speeds up the extraction process.

  5. 5.Does not generate undesirable effluents.

  6. 6.Can be used on many different biomass types including Cannabis, industrial hemp and hops and coconut meat.
