CleanBoost (a Carbonex product) Now Registered with the United States EPA
Combustion Technologies is pleased to announce that 211B testing at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) was finally completed and that one of our diesel additives was registered with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the regulations of 40 CFR 80.
As the original developer of Carbonex Diesel and the exclusive manufacturer of CleanBoost (used off-road and in pilot projects since 2003), this EPA registration represents an important milestone for Combustion Technologies. We look forward to working even more closely with our partners and U.S. distributors and to the expansion of commercial sales of CleanBoost in the on-road diesel market.

Chinese
Technology Fair December 18-21, 2002 Mr. Andrew Xu, our Director of Business
Development for the Greater China Area was recently in Jinan, the Provincial
Capital of Shandong , representing Carbonex Fuel Additives at the Overseas Personnel
Exchange & Economic, Trade, Technology Cooperation Fair, co-sponsored by
the Ministry of Personnel of the People's Republic of China and the
People's Government of Shandong Province. Mr.
Xu actively participated in the R&D work for Carbonex Fuel Additives
with Combustion Technologies and is also the founder of North American
Petrochemicals and Global Technology Corporation, which capitalizes upon
emerging technology and economic opportunities between China and North
America. The
aim of this fair was to set up a number of hi-tech projects in the areas of
electronics, information, biology, maritime technology, energy and new
materials and bring about more business opportunities. Over 10,000
participants were expected to attend. Carbonex
Fuel Additives are especially well-suited to the rapidly-growing Chinese
industrial markets, where coal, heavy oil and diesel fuels are used
extensively. Recently, promoting the efficient use of scarce energy
resources and reducing air pollution have become top priorities for
national and local governments.
3.7 % Fuel Savings in Chinese Ship
Carbonex HFO was tested recently onboard an 8800 tonne passenger and vehicle ferry sailing between the Chinese ports of Dalian and Yantai, east of Beijing. The Yinhegongzhu ("Milky Way Princess") is powered by a pair of medium-speed diesel engines (type NIGATA 8PC2-5L each rated at 5200 bhp) running on No. 6 bunker oil. The ship is owned and operated by Yantai Sea Emergency and Salvage Bureau under the Chinese Ministry of Transportation.
After one continuous month of Carbonex treatment, the Milky Way Princess was found to be consuming 3.7% less fuel oil than on previous voyages, with all other operating parameters unchanged. Black smoke from the exhaust was visibly reduced and the engines were reported to be running more smoothly than normal.
Carbonex HFO is one of the few North American manufactured fuel additives that has been tested and approved for sale within China. It is available in Jiangsu Province from our distributors, Yangzhou Fuel Additive Co. Ltd.
Maritech Conference in Newfoundland
Combustion Technologies was recently in St. John's for Maritech 2002, hosted by the Newfoundland Branch of the Canadian Institute of Marine Engineering. We talked to a number of shipping companies about how Carbonex HFO eliminates heavy oil combustion problems, such as carbon fouling and build-up in turbochargers and excessive soot formation.
