EnerBurn System Achieves Five Percent Fuel
Savings
EnerTeck (OTCBB:ETCK) today announced the completion of an
extensive product performance evaluation of EnerBurn®, the
company’s diesel fuel catalytic combustion accelerator and
complementary injection technology. “The final report showed five
percent (plus or minus one percent) improvements in fuel
consumption,” said Luis Castro, Managing Director of Proenco Brasil
Ltda., the principal investigator that conducted the evaluation in
partnership with EnerTeck. Funding for the study was provided by
Breitener Energetica SA, as part of an R&D Project on Energy
Efficiency approved by the Brazilian National Electric Energy
Agency. The 17-week test resulted in significant fuel savings with
far-reaching potential to benefit the hundreds of small utility
companies that produce electricity in the interior northern region
of Brazil using diesel-consuming Gensets.
Measured on Cummins Diesel Power Generator Model 690DFHA
engines, the project was implemented by independent, third-party
testing company Janelle Engineering using methods consistent with
EPA rules (40 CFR Part 89) for steady-state testing of diesel
engines rated at 750 hp (560 kW) or greater. The results achieved
with the EnerBurn system are expected to reduce emissions and
deliver fuel economy improvements for the utilities and their
customers.
“The successful evaluation supports Brazil’s expanding program
for rural electrification using a network of thermal power plants,
and a market that includes back-up power installations for the more
extensive hydroelectric power grid serving cities and large towns,”
said EnerTeck distributor Jane Gates. “Qualified technologies must
not only achieve significant consumption reductions under
rigorously controlled conditions, but also must be capable of rapid
scale-up for ease of commercialization in Brazil. EnerBurn meets
and exceeds these requirements.”
“With rising diesel prices and increasing global regulatory
pressure to reduce consumption and emissions, EnerBurn is emerging
as a viable solution for power producers using diesel Gensets, as
well as industrial companies, governments and military users who
must meet rising compliance and cost-savings thresholds,” said
Dwaine Reese, EnerTeck CEO. “This successful evaluation, along with
concurrent performance assessments taking place around the world,
is another important mark of progress for EnerTeck.”
