Nationally Recognized, Independent Lab Tests Prove Toxic Emissions Reduced Using Improved EthosFR+
EPA Recognized and CARB Approved Lab Confirms
Increased Horsepower, Improved Fuel Economy,
and Significant Reduction in Harmful Emissions
SAN DIEGO, CA–(MARKET WIRE)–Apr 6, 2009 — Ethos Environmental, Inc. (OTC BB:ETEV.OB - News), a San Diego-based company, is pleased to announce that, through Ethos Scientific LLC, the Company’s research and development division, it has received positive Proof of Concept test results in reducing toxic tailpipe emissions when the company’s new and improved flagship product, EthosFR+, a liquid fuel catalyst, is added to fuel.
The new and improved blend was tested by the California Environmental Engineering Laboratory, Center for Environmental Research in Santa Ana, California in March. The CEE is Environmental Protection Agency recognized and California Air Resources Board (CARB) certified.
The Company’s new formula contains compounds not present in the original blend. Ethos’ new Scientific Advisory Board recommended the addition of this proprietary ingredient to dramatically bolster the products’ performance in gas and diesel engines.
The tests were run on a Cummins QSM-11 400 HP heavy duty diesel engine in accordance with Federal Regulations. The successful tests were conducted on a heavy duty engine dynamometer. Two tests were completed; one initially without the EthosFR+ fuel catalyst to establish a baseline average for tailpipe emissions, horsepower and fuel economy. The second test included the addition of EthosFR+ in the engine. The results of this test were compared to the baseline.
Analysis of the tests indicated a significant reduction of measured tailpipe emissions for Hydrocarbons, Carbon Monoxide, Nitrous Oxide, and Particulate Matter. A marked improvement in horsepower and fuel economy was also noted.
According to CEE Research Director Joe Jones, the results were “surprising” and Ethos FR+ outperformed other additives that the CEE has tested in the past. “The results using the Ethos product showed significant improvement in lowering the tailpipe emissions and improving fuel economy,” Jones said.
“The test results from an EPA recognized and CARB certified laboratory verifies with a high level of confidence the validity of EthosFR+ and its high probability for continual improvement in engines with constant use,” said Corey P. Schlossmann, Ethos Environmental, Inc.’s CEO. “As a result of the conclusive ‘Proof of Concept’ test, we are now beginning production of the new EthosFR+ for release into our expanding global distribution network.”
