DIESEL FUEL ADDITIVE FOR REDUCED EMMISIONS WITH IMPROVED MPG

Inventive Solutions, LLC is providing a diesel fuel additive EP-F developed by our research group to California Environmental Engineering (CEE) for the “Proof Of Concept” (POC) program.
CEE is a major EPA-recognized and CARB (California Air Resource Board)-Certified mobile source emissions laboratory, which is located in Santa Ana, California.
California Environmental Engineering (CEE) is an agency of the State of California, and is a privately owned independent automotive testing laboratory. CEE has many contracts with manufacturers relating to specialized vehicle procurement and testing.
CEE is able to test products in order to allow certification by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) exemption procedure and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines. This process allows issuance of an Executive Order (E.O.) and provides an opportunity to sell a product legally in the State of California.

PRELIMINARY TESTS WITH “PLANET GREEN” RESULTS

Recent trials took place 12/09 to 4/20/09 for Inventive Solutions diesel fuel additive (EP-F).  The trials were conducted by Rod Stallings of Rod’s Truck Repair, a CARB certified diesel truck service center, in Santa Fe Springs, CA.  Tests results were derived using a Volvo tractor containing the EP-F fuel additive.  After 6,439 miles of interstate travel, data was collected and compared to the previous (non-additive) diesel fuel performance.  Exhaust smoke particulate emissions were then recorded using a Red Mountain Opacity Tester
The opacity (% exhaust smoke particles) results taken after using EP-F additive recorded a significant reduction of exhaust particles upwards of 60%. The overall test results of the EP-F additive demonstrated a decrease in emissions with increased mpg of 40%+.

CEE “PROOF OF CONCEPT” EP-F ADDITIVE FOR DIESEL FUELS

Diesel Engine Performance Test
Following several meetings with California Environmental Engineering, Project Manager Joe Jones recommended Inventive Solutions submit the additive for the Proof of Concept certification program, following review of the initial testing done at Santa Fe Springs, CA.

Phase 1
Proof of concept (POC) with California Environmental Engineering
Fuel blended with EPF additive for performance comparison
•    Tests will be performed via Federal Test Procedures (FTP) with EP-F additive blended into the laboratory grade diesel.

COMMERCIAL DIESEL ENGINE ON TEST STAND by CEE

Complete engine test in enclosed atmosphere controlled test room.  All engine and fuel: temperatures, pressures, gases and particulate emissions, combustion temperatures, flash points, cooling temp and other parameters.  The collected data is analyzed and a report from CEE project manager will be submitted to CARB.  CARB will then issue an executive order (EO) that will permit sale and use of EP-F for diesel fuel in California.

EP-F DIESEL FUEL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION

•    Reduced toxic and volatile exhaust emissions.
•    Cleaner more efficient combustion process
•    Increases O2 (oxygen), as the primary emission gas,
•    Increases mpg from 30% to 40% per gallon.


IMMEDIATE APPLICATIONS

Commercial freight trucks
Service industry fleet vehicles i.e. waste collection
School buses
Municipal public transportation
Personal vehicles
Stationary and mobile diesel

MARKETING

With assistance from California Environmental Engineering (CEE) and California Air Resource Board (CARB), Inventive Solutions will discuss an appropriate method to supply the EP-F diesel fuel additive in the State of California.  Some of the methods of distribution considered are through major diesel refineries, fuel blenders, or lastly as an over the counter dry packaged additive that can be added directly to the fuel tank.  The dry packaged additive could be supplied in 1,5,10 20,50 and 100 gallon increments.

FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES FOR INVENTIVE SOLUTIONS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY GREEN FUEL ADDITIVE

ISLLCs’ prolonged research and subsequent tests have shown that EP-F will also improve combustion and emissions with all hydrocarbon fuels i.e. jet fuel, gasoline and methanol.
