QUITO,
Ecuador--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Biofriendly Corporation
announced today the results of tests conducted
by Petroecuador, the national oil company of Ecuador.
The tests were designed to evaluate the effectiveness
of Green Plus(TM) in reducing major combustion
gas emissions in diesel engines. The Research Technology
Development Unit of Petroecuador supervised the
tests, with the participation of Chemeng, a government
approved testing organization.
The Petroecuador report concluded that Green Plus(TM) demonstrated an ability
to significantly reduce the four major toxic and gaseous emissions of diesel
fuel combustion that can lead to serious health problems and climate-changing
effects.
The tests were conducted on diesel buses as well as stationary engines
utilizing certified test equipment.
The
results of the stationary engines showed Carbon
Monoxide (CO) emissions dropped by an average of
52.27%, Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) emissions decreased
by an average of 43.57%, and Sulfur Dioxide (SOx)
emissions decreased by an average of 50.06%. On
the mobile source bus engines, "The opacity
of the smoke produced in the emissions of the two
buses was reduced by levels of more than 90% in
periods of five to fifteen days," according
to Petroecuador, Carbon Monoxide was reduced by
an average of 54.98%, Nitrogen Oxides reduced by
53%, and Sulfur Dioxide by 4.66%.
According to the report, there is an "Urgent need to improve air quality" in
Ecuador. Immediate and long-term reductions of respiratory diseases; decreases
in the number of vehicles that emit large quantities of smoke; cleaner
engines, buildings and cities; more tourism as a result of better air quality;
and improved efficiency -- are all potential benefits of using the Green
Plus(TM) fuel catalyst.
Under development for over 10 years, Green Plus(TM) is a new product that
employs nanotechnology (working at the molecular level) to achieve a breakthrough
combination of improved fuel economy and reduced emissions. Green Plus(TM)
is a liquid combustion catalyst that is added in very small quantities
to fuel in order to create a more complete, cooler and more linear burn.
The product has undergone rigorous testing in the United States and Europe,
and has over 75 million miles of on-road/on-ocean use. Green Plus(TM) is
now available commercially in Ecuador.
About Biofriendly Corporation
Biofriendly Corporation has introduced Green Plus(TM), a liquid fuel combustion
catalyst, the world's most effective solution for significantly improving
fuel economy and reducing harmful emissions. Green Plus(TM) is designed
for use in diesel, gasoline and other hydrocarbon-based fuels. This patent-pending
product was invented by the same innovators who created Vortoil, the award-winning
oil-water separator for offshore oil production.
