KLEENAIR Announces UK Emmissions Control Agreement.DANA POINT, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 1, 1999-- KleenAir Systems, Inc. (OTC OTC See: Over-the-counter. OTC See over-the-counter market (OTC). BB: KAIR) today announced that KleenAir has signed a Letter of Agreement with a UK multi-national company with regard to a strategic partnership to integrate its NOxMaster(TM) System with a new plasma catalyst proven to dramatically reduce particulates in emissions from diesel powered automobiles and trucks. KleenAir has a unique computer controlled ammonia system which, when injected into the exhaust stream, interacts with NOx produced during combustion. The result converts environmentally hazardous Environmentally hazardous is a chemical hazard, where significant damage to the environment is caused by a chemical substance. It is defined in the Globally Harmonized System and in the European Union chemical regulations. NOx into harmless nitrogen and water. Kleenair's potential strategic partner uses microwave technology to eliminate particles from exhaust emissions. NOx and particulates are the two most intractable exhaust emission problems relating to relating to relate prep → concernant relating to relate prep → bezüglich +gen, mit Bezug auf +acc diesel engines. KleenAir owns worldwide patents on its system, and has an additional patent application pending. The microwave catalyst is also covered by worldwide patents. The integrated system would enable automotive vehicles to meet increasingly severe government mandated restrictions on NOx and particulates planned by the EPA EPA eicosapentaenoic acid. EPA abbr. eicosapentaenoic acid EPA, n.pr See acid, eicosapentaenoic. EPA, n. and other environmental agencies around the world. The principal market in the U.S. for an integrated NOx/Particulate reduction system will be fleet operators of diesel powered vehicles. Diesel engines are now the engine of choice in well over 30% of all new European passenger vehicles, with close to 5 million new such vehicles manufactured annually. The Company's strategy in the diesel pollution control market is to combine its patented NOx reduction technology with other particulate reduction systems to offer a single integrated 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 , replacement or retrofit exhaust system Noun 1. exhaust system - system consisting of the parts of an engine through which burned gases or steam are discharged exhaust automobile engine - the engine that propels an automobile that dramatically reduces all the key pollutants associated with diesel engines. The Company believes that regulatory authorities will increasingly favor the use of after-engine exhaust treatment systems to control emissions. The Company is in the business of developing NOx reduction systems for the automotive market together with appropriate catalytic converters designed to operate effectively with the Company's patented products. Safe Harbor Safe Harbor 1. A legal provision to reduce or eliminate liability as long as good faith is demonstrated. 2. A form of shark repellent implemented by a target company acquiring a business that is so poorly regulated that the target itself is less attractive.
