SCIDEV | INVESTOR PRESENTATION

Haldon operates in 4 verticals that will all come under the SciDev Water Segment

Australian based

environmental engineering and solutions company

Provides SciDev with presence and scale in the infrastructure and water & wastewater verticals

Water Treatment

The provision of mobile water treatment plants for contaminated groundwater, landfill leachate, industrial waste and construction water.

Groundwater dewatering

Management of groundwater and surface water across a range of industries including construction and infrastructure.

Remediation

Removal of contaminants including heavy metals, ammonia, hydrocarbons, nutrients and PFAS.

Liquid waste

Onsite liquid waste treatment services ranging from oil and water separation to the treatment of multifaceted waste streams.

SCIDEV | INVESTOR PRESENTATION

Per and Polyfluoroalkyl substances ( PFAS ) are a family of human-made chemicals

Ability of PFAS to remain intact in the environment results in increasing levels of contamination

PFAS contaminated soil presents major excavation and soil management challenges in large scale construction and infrastructure projects

PFAS Treatment

Haldon has been successful in creating significant value in the growing market for treating PFAS with . internally developed IP

PFAS have become a growing issue in large mining, construction and infrastructure projects in Australia and across the globe .

Haldon approaches their solution to PFAS in a similar manner to how SciDev approaches their clients - every project is different and requires a tailored approach. This drives efficiency .

▪ Haldon designed and developed robust PFAS treatment strategy considers all variables and outcomes. Removal rates being achieved with Haldon clients are currently the most efficient in the country, to residual levels that are below existing detection limits.

▪ Significant ability for SciDev to deliver a full treatment solution to major infrastructure and construction projects on their water treatment and PFAS remediation requirements

SCIDEV | INVESTOR PRESENTATION

Unique Value Proposition – Waste Volume Reduction

Haldon’s PFAS technology works better with water with low solid levels

SDV’s Maxiflox Chemistry separates the solid particles and provides a clean feed liquid to the Haldon process

Haldon specialise in the provision of technology to remove liquids from liquids which are residual

pollutants such as heavy metals or organic compounds

Initial waste volume Competitor's equates to 8 Olympic technology reduces sized pools waste to 9 B-double trucks

Haldon technology reduces the volume into just 2 hot tubs of waste

Less Waste

Combination of SDV and Haldon will produce 99% less liquid waste vs peer processes

The combination of SDV and Haldon technology can reduced waste water by ~ 20,000 times. Other commercial technology only delivers a ~200 times reduction

Reduced cost

Less waste volume reduces the disposal cost of the contaminant

Reuse of water

Water from the Haldon process can be reused in areas such as irrigation and dust suppression reducing the environmental footprint of the process
