Emergency Filtration Products Invited to Apply for
US Navy-Funded Technology Transfer Project
|
Emergency
Filtration Products Inc. (EFP) (OTCBB: EMFP) announced
that it has been invited to apply for participation
in an US Navy-funded Technology Transfer project (Center
of the Commercialization of Advanced Technology (CCAT))
and the Office of Technology Transfer and Commercialization
(OTTC) which encompasses filter technology products.
If selected and approved, EFP will build two filter
product prototypes, both of which will employ the company's
patented 2H filter technology. One of the prototypes
will be built with the additional protection offered
by the company's proprietary nanotechnology process
in which the filter prototype will be treated with a
coating of nano particles. The prototypes, which are
expected to take approximately one month to build, are
designed for a large number of potential applications,
including, but not limited to: biohazard masks, transportation
(aircraft, tanks, armored personnel carriers) and buildings
(military, industrial, office and residential).
The prototypes will then be tested over a period that
is expected to take one month or less. Assuming the
successful completion of prototype development and testing,
the filter products would then be produced by a U.S.
Navy-approved manufacturer.
About CCAT
The CCAT -- supported by Congress and funded by the
Department of Defense -- is a public-private collaborative
partnership between academia, industry, and government.
Partners include San Diego State University (SDSU),
Foundation and Entrepreneurial Management Center, the
University of California, San Diego (UCSD) Jacobs School
and UCSD CONNECT, and Lockheed Martin ORINCON Technologies
Inc. with support from the Space and Naval Warfare Systems
Center, San Diego. The consortium-style CCAT intends
to bridge the gap that exists between the generators
of technology, the Department of Defense and the commercial
marketplace. Web site: www.ccatsandiego.org
About OTTC
California State University San Bernardino's Office
of Technology Transfer and Commercialization results
from a public-private collaborative partnership of academia,
industry, and government. Its purpose is to assist in
the movement of technology from laboratory to commercial
or military use. In order to accelerate this transition,
OTTC provides assistance in marketing assessments, business
plan development, product development, testing and evaluation,
as well as financial assistance. It provides the researcher
with independent validation of the technology and the
market potential for the product. These services and
resulting reports help support the commercialization
of the potential products. Web site: www.ottc.csub.edu
About Emergency Filtration Products Inc.
EFP is an air filtration products manufacturer whose
technology provides filtration efficiencies of "greater
than 99.99% at a particle size of 0.027 microns."
Its initial products were developed for the medical
market: the Vapor Isolation Valve(TM); RespAide -- a
CPR mask used for resuscitation of respiratory/cardiac
arrest cases; an A.E.D. prep kit; and the 2H Breathing
Circuit Filter. Each has received FDA approval. EFP's
2H NanoMask with 27 nanometers filtration capability
relies on the company's core 2H Technology(TM) filtration
system, which utilizes a combination of hydrophobic
and hydrophilic filters able to capture and isolate
bacterial and viral microorganisms with efficiencies
of 99.99%. The environmental mask utilizes the company's
patented 2H Technology(TM) and nanotechnology to enhance
the capture-and-isolation characteristics of the filter
media. In addition to filtration products, the company
also supplies Superstat, a modified hemostatic collagen,
to the medical market and U.S. military for extreme
wound care.
