There is important breaking news coming from CleanTech Biofuels, Inc. (OTCBB: CLTH), and the company should once again have investors watching this stock closely. This morning, the company issued a press release announcing that Dan W. Ziegler, Managing Director of business development for Duke Energy Generation Services, will serve as a consultant to CleanTech Biofuels as it continues to develop its municipal solid waste to renewable power production platform.

Great addition for the company, as the press release states that Mr. Ziegler has over 20 years of experience in the power industry, with extensive first-hand knowledge of plant engineering, operations and project management. According to the release, recently, he was the manager for several large projects including a refurbishment and re-start of a waste coal-fired plant in Pennsylvania, and the $215MM re-powering of a 51 year-old plant with conversion from coal to combined cycle gas in Indiana. He has participated in a number of due diligence reviews for potential energy-related acquisitions both as an engineer and lead developer, and assisted with transitioning of new acquisitions into the corporate portfolio. Mr. Ziegler has a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Cincinnati, and a MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University.

Mr. Ziegler noted, "I have followed the development of CleanTech's Pressurized Steam Classification technology to produce a renewable biomass from municipal solid waste over the past several years and believe that this technology, currently ready for commercial implementation, is an important step in the development of creating reliable, plentiful and economically viable feed-stocks for conversion to clean energy."

CleanTech CEO, Ed Hennessey added, "We are very pleased to add an individual with the background and experience of Dan Ziegler to our team. Dan has spent much of his career developing alternative energy applications. He will provide invaluable assistance as we begin developing commercial projects using our proprietary technologies."

Investors are urged to continue to monitor the progress of the company!

In case you are not familiar with the company: CleanTech Biofuels, Inc. is a development stage company with technology that the company believes is capable of converting municipal solid waste into ethanol and other energy products.
