Save The World Air's CAT-MATE Test Results Certified by United
Kingdom's Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA) Motorcycle and
Generator Tests Conducted by Hong Kong Exhaust Emissions Laboratory
(HKEEL) LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Vehicle
Certification Agency (VCA), an executive Agency of the Department
for Transport, is closely linked with the United Kingdom Government
and European policy formulation and enforcement of vehicle safety
and environmental standards. It is responsible for the
certification of vehicles from many of the world's leading
manufacturers and is the body responsible for the conduct of type
approval tests on motor vehicles, their parts and systems. The VCA
is one of four internationally recognized testing authorities for
the certification of motor vehicles, parts, systems and aftermarket
devices. The three other agencies are the US EPA, California Air
Resources Board (CARB) and TUF (Germany/EEC). The VCA evaluated
test results conducted by their independent laboratory, Hong Kong
Exhaust Emissions Lab (HKEEL) of Save The World Air's CAT-MATE Anti
Pollution Devices conducted last summer. "We are very pleased that
the VCA has certified SWA test results conducted at the HKEEL
confirming that our CAT-MATE devices significantly reduce harmful
exhaust emissions," stated Edward L. Masry, SWA's Chief Executive
Officer. Masry added that "we can now explore markets in Europe,
Asia and Central and South America and SWA plans to commence
production of the CAT-MATE devices later this year." In the VCA's
certification letter dated January 20, 2005, Michael J. Mulvaney,
Head of Operations for VCA East Asia states: "VCA is of the
opinion, based on our experience of the HKEEL laboratory and the
information contained in the test results, that the results are an
honest and accurate account of the exhaust gas emissions from the
generator and the motorcycle before and after fitment of the SWA
CAT-MATE device." Mulvaney also stated, "VCA is satisfied that the
laboratory is run in a competent and professional manner and that
tests that are carried out within the scope of the certification
can be relied upon as a true indication of the product that was
tested." These tests were conducted in July and August of 2004
under closely controlled conditions by HKEEL on a Honda 2-stroke
NSR 150 motorcycle and a Warrior 2-stroke 63cc generator. The HKEEL
tests demonstrated that SWA's CAT-MATE devices reduce emissions of
carbon monoxide (CO), nitrous oxides (NOx) and total hydrocarbons
(THC) by between 57% and 87%. Two-stroke engines are a major source
of airborne pollution around the world. This problem is especially
acute in Asia where vehicles with two-stroke engines are the most
popular form of transportation. Save The World Air, Inc. was
created to develop devices using proprietary technologies that can
be installed in motor vehicles to reduce harmful emissions, improve
fuel efficiency and/or improve performance. To view complete test
