PRODUCT TEST PROGRAMME - INSPECTORATE CASELLA

1. INTRODUCTION
   Inspectorate Casella is an internationally respected organisation and one of the world's leading authorities on air pollution and pollution technology. Casella, in conjunction with Mr R E Smith C. Eng. an independent consultant engineer specialising in applied thermodynamics, have now completed extensive product tests with the Broquet Fuel Catalyst on a variety of engines and with different fuels, namely unleaded and leaded petrol and diesel. The tests were designed to examine the effect, if any, that Broquet has on fuel and, in particular, on the levels of toxic emissions resulting from the addition of Broquet to the fuel system. Measurements were also conducted on fuel usage rate and engine power output. Tests were conducted on rolling road conditions and emission levels were measured using sophisticated equipment operated by Casella personnel.

   TEST RESULTS
   In all cases tests were conducted over a wide range of engine speeds both before and after the addition of Broquet to the fuel system. No engine or other adjustments were made and so the results are a direct reflection of the effect that Broquet has on fuel, subject only to experimental tolerances. The table below shows the reductions in toxic emission levels brought about by the addition of Broquet to various fuels:

   FUEL TYPE	CO REDUCTION	HC REDUCTION	PARTICULATE REDUCTION	LEAD OXIDES REDUCTION
   LEADED	12 - 15%	7 - 33%	11 - 15%	26 - 50%
   UNLEADED	20 - 35%	4 - 35%	25 - 75%	86 - 91%*
   DIESEL	.	.	5 - 55%	50 - 85%

   *It should be noted that unleaded fuel is not lead free and this reduction represents the almost complete elimination of the tiny amount of naturally occurring lead present in unleaded fuel. Apart from lead and lead oxides, no other metal particulate could be detected in exhaust emissions indicating that metals in the fuel catalyst itself do not result in metal oxides being released into the atmosphere.

2. FUEL CONSUMPTION TESTS

   Improvements were measured using the following fuel	Saving
   Leaded Petrol	7 - 10%
   Unleaded (95 Octane)	8 - 10%
   Diesel	7 - 9%

3. CONCLUSION
   The Casella tests clearly demonstrate the effect that Broquet has on fuel, almost certainly as a result of a surface catalytic reaction. Improved fuel combustion results in greatly reduced toxic emission levels for both petrol and diesel fuels. Fuel consumption is also improved because of more efficient combustion of fuel.
