WORTHINGTON, OH--(Marketwired - March 12, 2015) - Midwest Energy Emissions Corp.

Since July 2014 Mr. Lee has served as the Chief Financial Officer of Butler Machinery Company, a regional dealer of top-quality heavy construction equipment and agriculture equipment for sale with locations in North Dakota, South Dakota and Nebraska.

CEO R. Alan Kelley commented, "Today, Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. is executing on a critical path towards building a large and thriving energy-technology company in the mercury emissions control industry. We are spending every day in the field selling our patented mercury emissions solutions, executing on our existing contracts, and preparing for what should be a very significant ramp in revenues over coming years. Our Board has been bolstered with great talent and leadership which we believe will enable us to deliver well-deserved returns to our shareholders."
Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. develops and employs patented and proprietary technologies to remove mercury from coal-power plant emissions. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Mercury and Air Toxic Standards (MATS) rule requires that all coal- and oil-fired power plants in the U.S., larger than 25 mega-watts, must remove roughly 90% of mercury from their emissions. ME2C employs patented technology that has been shown to achieve mercury removal levels compliant with MATS at a significantly lower cost and with less operational impact than currently used methods, while preserving the ability for customers to recycle and sell fly-ash for beneficial use.
