) has been released. The official report confirms all test results included in the preliminary report, and a full copy of Environment Canada's ERMD report entitled "Comparing the Regulated Exhaust Emissions Emitted by a Small Two-Stroke Fire Pump Engine Equipped with an ECC Catalyst" will soon be available on ECC's corporate website (www.econtrolcorp.com).

Summary of Report

ECC's catalytic muffler muffler, in automobiles, device designed to reduce the noise from the exhaust of an internal-combustion engine. When the exhaust gases from an internal-combustion engine are released directly into the atmosphere, they create a loud noise, caused by the passage of the  was fitted to a two-stroke 185cc class 1 non-handheld engine provided by Wildfire, a division of Tyco International For the unrelated division of Mattel, see .

Tyco International Ltd. NYSE: TYC is a diversified manufacturing conglomerate incorporated in Bermuda, with United States operational headquarters in New Jersey.
 Ltd. A six-mode test (in accordance with US EPA US EPA United States Environmental Protection Agency  regulations) was conducted on four different configurations to establish the best suited for this particular engine, and it was determined that a catalyst using 20LPM (Lines Per Minute) The number of lines a printer can print or a scanner can scan in a minute.

lpm - lines per minute
 of air injection provided the best solution. The catalytic muffler using 20LPM of air injection produced the following emission reductions (in comparison with the Original Engine Manufactured (OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and ) muffler):

Total CO (g/kw-hr)            834             216            75.6%
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Total NOx (g/kw-hr)          0.35             0.23           34.3%
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Total HC (g/kw-hr)           253.6            2.5            99.0%
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Total HC + NOx (g/kw-hr)     253.9            2.72           98.9%
----------------------------------------------------------------------


The 2008 emission standards for this class of engine as set by CARB and the US EPA are 610 g/kw-hr, and 16.1 g/kw-hr for CO and Total HC+ NOx respectively meaning that ECC appears to have exceeded the upcoming emission standards for certification.

ECC must now undergo additional testing to prove the durability of the catalytic muffler. Pending proof of durability, ECC will become the first company to ever achieve certification of this engine.
