EcoloCap Solutions, Inc. (ECOS), which develops nanotechnology-enhanced alternative energy solutions alongside companies like FuelCell Energy, Inc. (FCEL) and Fuel Tech, Inc. (FTEK), will benefit from new fuel standards proposed by the Obama Administration that seek to reduce reliance on foreign fuel and curb harmful emissions.
Last week, President Obama signed a Presidential Memorandum directing regulators to set mileage and pollution limits for big trucks while tightening rules for future cars and SUVs. The unprecedented move is aimed at halving the amount of fuel used and emissions produced by big trucks that account for nearly 5% of all vehicles on U.S. highways.
Despite their small numbers, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that these commercial trucks account for more than 20% of greenhouse gas emissions and 20% of fuel. The new standards would apply for trucks and buses for model years 2014 to 2018. Meanwhile, the regulations for passenger cars wouldn’t be put into effect until 2017 to 2025.
While much of the focus has been on hybrid vehicles, innovators like EcoloCap Solutions, Inc. (OTC-BB: ECOS) are producing solutions that can be immediately applied. The company’s M-Fuel is an emulsion, a combination of oil, water and a proprietary additive, that reduces fuel use by 30%, particulate emission by 98%+, and gas emissions by 60% or more, while even cutting costs by 25%, all in unmodified diesel engines.
M-Fuel is produced by combining oil, water, and a proprietary additive and processing the mixture. International and US patentes are being prepared for the process. Essentially, the technology breaks apart the water molecules which are absorbed into fuel molecules to produce a new fuel that combusts more completely and consists of 30% water.
EcoloCap Solutions recently shipped its first unit M-Fuel to Canada and is in discussions with potential customers around the world Independent testing in the US is expected to start in 60 days for over-the-road and maritime. applications. This technology will meet new demands imposed by the government with a reduced capital investment, today.
