American Environmental Corp. Announces Marketing of New Air Pollution Technology.BOULDER CITY Boulder City, residential city (1990 pop. 12,567), S Nev., just W of Hoover Dam near Lake Mead; inc. 1959. Built (1932) by the federal government as headquarters during the dam's construction, it became a self-governing municipality by act of Congress in 1958. , Nev.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 22, 1998--American Environmental Corp. (OTC OTC See: Over-the-counter. OTC See over-the-counter market (OTC). BB:AEVC AEVC American Electric Vehicle Company ) announced that it has completed tests from a facility in California where it has successfully removed up to 99 percent of the sulphur dioxide sulphur dioxide Noun Chem a strong-smelling colourless soluble gas, used in the manufacture of sulphuric acid and in the preservation of foodstuffs Noun 1. (SO2) emissions with its new, patented dry removal systems. Testing started in March 1998 and has run continuously since then in the United States. Fabric Filters Air Systems Inc., a subsidiary of American Environmental, has been installing injection systems for more than 10 years. Robert Hood, president of Fabric Filters Air Systems, said: "The majority of our injection systems have been for incineration incineration the act of burning to ashes. of municipal and hospital waste. We were able to not only take out the sulphur dioxide (SO2) but also the hydrochloric acid hydrochloric acid: see hydrogen chloride. hydrochloric acid or muriatic acid Solution in water of hydrogen chloride (HCl), a gaseous inorganic compound. (HCl). "We also have designed injection systems for neutralization neutralization, chemical reaction, according to the Arrhenius theory of acids and bases, in which a water solution of acid is mixed with a water solution of base to form a salt and water; this reaction is complete only if the resulting solution has neither acidic nor of salts and fluorides in secondary aluminum smelters and have designed different types of collectors systems, bag houses, scrubbers and filter beds, including air to air heat exchangers for high-temperature filter applications, throughout the world." American Environmental recently installed the company's systems in Chile, China and several other foreign countries. The company has recently received several contracts to install these same systems in this country. As a result of these contracts totaling in excess of $1 million, the company is poised to start an aggressive marketing program in the United States for its new pollution systems. The equipment cost for this exciting new toxic pollution system runs approximately 75 percent less than that of existing systems. Additionally, the maintenance costs for this new technology run at least 80 percent less than those systems in existence today. The most exciting and important aspect of this new technology is that the pollution facility can simply dial in the precise percentage amount of pollution it wishes to remove or needs to capture.
