Product news:
Environmental Control Corporation ("EVCC") (OTCBB:EVCC) would like to announce the completion of professional production catalytic mufflers intended for use in the upcoming durability testing with a 160cc 4-stroke engine typically used in lawnmowers. This type of catalytic muffler may be fitted to the 52 million commercial and residential lawnmowers which, according to the Wall Street Journal, are being used in the U.S. today. This is the last step in the certification process and EVCC is looking forward to having access to a full compliment of test statistics to aid in their sales and marketing activities. The outstanding emissions reductions illustrated by Environment Canada’s testing illustrate the tremendous capability of EVCC’s catalytic muffler technology and the company hopes that successful completion of the durability testing will serve to solidify its position as an industry leader.
EVCC now has both the 2-stroke and 4-stroke catalytic mufflers prepared for testing and is in talks with Carnot Emissions Services (CES) in San Antonio, Texas in order to schedule the earliest viable date for both of these units. CES is an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and California Air Resource Board (CARB) recognized facility with an exceptional reputation for independence and accuracy and will be conducting the testing in accordance with the California Code of Regulations, Title 13, Sections 2400-2409, as well as the 40 CFR Part 90.
