                            Catalytic Solutions, Inc. 
 
                                (The "Company") 
 
        ACtifilter sg approved for u.s. epa's emerging technology program 
 
Catalytic Solutions, Inc. (AIM:CTS and CTSU), the company behind Mixed Phase 
Catalyst (MPC ) technology, is pleased to announce that its ECS Actifilter SG 
diesel particulate filter (DPF) emissions reduction system, has been listed by 
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on the National Clean Diesel's 
Emerging Technology List. 
 
Actifilter SG, an actively regenerating DPF system utilizing the Company's 
catalyst technology and a patented syngas generator developed and manufactured 
by NxtGen Emissions Control, Inc., earned placement on the Emerging Technology 
List by meeting the requirements of the Diesel Emission Reduction Act National 
Program provisions, under the Energy Policy Act of 2005.  Actifilter SG, listed 
for use in the retrofit of 1994 through 2006 model year on-road heavy- to 
medium-heavy duty diesel engines, reduces emissions of particulate matter by 90% 
and carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons by 80%.  The "fit and forget" Actifilter SG 
is an ideal retrofit solution for intra-city delivery trucks and urban buses, as 
the active regeneration components result in no minimum exhaust temperature 
requirement, and unlike any other DPF, offers a temperature range of operation 
that results in a fully automated system which eliminates the need to plug the 
system into a regeneration panel and keeps the DPF clean and working efficiently 
- allowing the user to virtually fit the system and forget it. 
 
Actifilter SG will remain on the Emerging Technologies List for one year with 
the possible extension of an additional year, during which time the Company will 
continue to work with the EPA to complete the full verification process. 
 
Commenting on the approval, Charles F. Call, Chief Executive Officer of 
Catalytic Solutions, Inc. said: 
"We are extremely pleased to once again earn placement on the EPA Emerging 
Technology List.  The combined expertise of our Catalyst division, Heavy Duty 
Diesel Systems division and NxtGen Emission Controls, Inc. has resulted in this 
innovative new solution for diesel emissions reduction. Actifilter SG nicely 
compliments the already broad range of U.S. EPA and CARB verified and approved 
emissions control systems and products that we offer to our customers that 
benefit the global environment." 
 
 
About the Emerging Technology Program 
The Clean Diesel Emerging Technologies Program provides an opportunity to 
advance new, cutting edge technologies that reduce diesel emissions from 
existing fleets. Under this competitive grant program, the EPA provides funding 
assistance to eligible entities for the deployment of diesel emission reduction 
technologies which have not yet been verified or certified by the EPA or CARB. 
To qualify as an emerging technology, the manufacturer of the technology must be 
in the initial stages of the verification process with the EPA or CARB and 
listed on the EPA's Emerging Technology List, which may be found at
