EUROTECH's Radiation-Resistant EKOR Sealer Successful in
Macro-Encapsulating Demonstration for West Jefferson Facility

Fairfax, Virginia October 11, 2001 - EUROTECH, Ltd., (AMEX: EUO), announced
today that it successfully completed a paid demonstration of its EKOR Sealer
product for Battelle Memorial Institute at Battelle's West Jefferson
Facility in Ohio. In this application, EKOR coated concrete shield blocks
and demonstrated EKOR Sealer as superior to conventional aterial as a
macro-encapsulating coating of hot cell walls and other radioactive
contaminated components in the decommissioning program.

Battelle will decommission five hot cells at the West Jefferson Facility and
one hot cell at West Valley, New York. EKOR Sealer may be used as the
coating of the inner hot cell walls, shield doors and various other
structures and equipment prior to diamond wire cutting them into manageable
sizes for disposal.

Hot cells were used for over thirty years of testing and evaluation of
intact nuclear fuel elements from nuclear power plants. These structures
have become highly contaminated and still contain an estimated 6,000 curies
of activity in the form of metallurgical samples, contaminated equipment,
sediment and fuel pieces, and distributed contamination on interior cell
walls. The cells at West Jefferson contain about 13,000 cubic feet of
transuranic material and a greater volume of low-level wastes. EKOR Sealer
has demonstrated that the loose contamination in the hot cells can be fixed
in place and safely contained while the cells are diamond cut for easier
handling and disposal. EKOR's strong adhesion and resistance to chemical and
radioactive corrosion, make EKOR Sealer ideal for the hot cell projects.
