Easy Environmental Solutions introduces Nano Void technology into 2 new industries with orders for systems for local Minnesota businesses
Expansion into New Industries: Easy Environmental Solutions is installing Nano Void systems at two Minnesota sites—a livestock truck wash and a northern resort—for waste management and lake dredging. Valued at $200,000, these combine oxygenated bubbles and microbial solutions to reduce odors and waste, generating recurring revenue.

Valued at $200,000, these combine oxygenated bubbles and microbial solutions to reduce odors and waste, generating recurring revenue. Advanced Technology Models Ready for Market: After three years of testing, the company offers three Nano Void models (150, 60, 30) for agriculture and water treatment, plus a 450 model for oil separation. Membrane-free, they produce 1.67 trillion durable bubbles per gallon, using one-tenth the competitor's power.

Membrane-free, they produce 1.67 trillion durable bubbles per gallon, using one-tenth the competitor's power. Sustainable Solutions for Global Challenges: CEO Mark Gaalswyk emphasizes chemical-free water restoration for lagoons, lakes, and oil wells, aiding rural and arid areas worldwide with efficient, eco-friendly desalination and cleanup technologies. WELCOME, Minn., Aug. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Digital Utilities Ventures, Inc. (OTC: DUTV), now doing business as Easy Environmental Solutions Inc., is proud to announce that new Easy NanoVoid systems are near completion and will soon be installed for 2 distinct businesses in Minnesota. Their Easy Nano Void 60 model is set to be delivered and installed this month at a large-scale livestock truck washing operation in southern Minnesota. The Easy NanoVoid 60 will inject a solution of 1.6 trillion super oxygenated NanoVoid bubbles per gallon into the liquid manure, discharging into the attached large waste lagoon. While it is doing this, the technology will also inject Easy Environmental Solution's proprietary liquid microbial Terreplenish into the flow. The combination has been proven to quickly break down the waste while eliminating the offensive odors that have been otherwise offending the local neighbors. The installation is expected to be duplicated at hundreds of similar installations across the country. The installation will also further prove the technology to be an alternative economical solution for the thousands of rural communities with failing waste systems that need to be upgraded soon as they are polluting the waters of the Midwest. Waste Lagoon of Commercial Truck Wash to be treated with Super Oxygenated NanoVoids and Terreplenish Livestock Manure Truck Wash Bay Truck Wash Treatment Center A second Easy Nano Void 30 model will be delivered and installed at a resort in Northern, MN. The Easy NanoVoid 30 will be utilized with Easy Environmental Solution's Terreplenish to organically dredge the muck out of the swimming area of the lake bottom. The two projects total about $200,000 and will yield Easy Environmental Solutions an ongoing recurring revenue stream from Easy NanoVoid Operating License revenue and Sale of Terreplenish. Resort Swimming Area to be Dredged 3 of the most popular Easy Nano Void units ready to be shipped to customers! After extensive testing and engineering modifications over the past 3 years, 3 Easy Nano Void systems are available for the commercial & consumer market: Easy NanoVoid 150, Easy NanoVoid 60, and Easy NanoVoid 30, each with a specific capacity and purpose for the water cleanup conditions on site. A 4th model, the Easy NanoVoid 450, is a high-capacity, heavy-duty unit currently marketed for oil separation and extraction. 'Each of these units is specifically designed to meet the needs of customers within the agricultural, commercial, consumer, water treatment, and oil production industries,' said Charlie Lynch, Director of Special Projects. 'Whether cleaning lakes & slurry lagoons, or performing high-end oil separation, the Easy NanoVoid systems combine performance with mobility and flexibility to meet our customers' expectations.' Unlike other systems that often rely on membranes, which are prone to clogging in dirty, contaminated water, the Easy NanoVoid system is membrane-free, eliminating this obstacle. Additionally, competitor nano bubble systems typically sustain bubbles for only one week. Research at the University of Minnesota demonstrated that our 1.67 trillion bubbles per gallon of water is substantially more than most other systems. Because of their extremely small size, they can last up to a month in solution. As a result, the Easy Nano Void system achieves the same water-cleaning volume using just one-tenth of the horsepower of our competitors, and the bubbles stay for a month instead of just a week. New Easy Nano Void units are being assembled in Mankato, MN factory 'There is a tremendous need for water restoration,' said Mark Gaalswyk, CEO. 'We have environmentally sound… and effective …. solutions that alleviate the need to pour dangerous chemicals into our ponds, lakes, and agriculture lagoons. There is a vital need to unlike the oil reserves that remain tied up in dormant wells. Most importantly , we offer a non-chemical solution for the ever-increasing need for water treatment and desalination of our waterways… to provide clean water in the arid regions of our country and within countries overseas.'

(OTC: DUTV), now doing business as Easy Environmental Solutions Inc., is an innovative company developing modular technologies to solve major world problems. With a strong goal for sustainability and efficiency, DUTV aims to provide solutions for various industries through its unique approach to manufacturing and technology development.

Snap Announces Proposed Private Offering of $500 Million of Senior Notes Due 2034
SANTA MONICA, Calif., August 07, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Snap Inc. (NYSE: SNAP) announced today that it intends to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $500 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2034, or the notes, in a private offering that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. The notes will be general and unsecured senior obligations of Snap and will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed in the future, jointly and severally, by each of Snap's domestic subsidiaries that guarantees certain of its other indebtedness, if any, subject to certain exceptions. Snap intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to repurchase a portion of some or all of its outstanding convertible senior notes due 2026, or the 2026 notes, its outstanding convertible senior notes due 2027, or the 2027 notes, its outstanding convertible senior notes due 2028, or the 2028 notes, and/or its outstanding convertible senior notes due 2030, or the 2030 notes, and any remaining net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital, operating expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions of complementary businesses, or other repurchases of Snap's securities. In addition, Snap expects that some or all of the holders of the 2026 notes, the 2027 notes, the 2028 notes, or the 2030 notes that it repurchases may purchase shares of Snap Class A common stock in open market transactions or enter into or unwind various derivatives with respect to Snap Class A common stock to unwind hedge positions that they have with respect to their investment in the 2026 notes, the 2027 notes, the 2028 notes, or the 2030 notes. These transactions, in turn, may place upward pressure on the trading price of Snap Class A common stock, causing Snap Class A common stock to trade at higher prices than would be the case in the absence of these purchases. The notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. The notes will only be offered or sold to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act, and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. This press release is not an offer to sell and is not soliciting an offer to buy any securities, nor will it constitute an offer, solicitation, or sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. Any offers of the notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum. About Snap Inc. Snap Inc. is a technology company.
