About KleenAir

KleenAir is dedicated to the development, testing, and commercialization of products designed to help reduce smog and air pollution in the environment by reducing the emission of nitrogen oxide (NOx). Nitrogen Oxide reacts with sunlight in the atmosphere to create ozone. The principal initiative of KleenAir is the NOxMaster(R) System, which is an electro-mechanical device that substantially reduces the amount of NOx in gasoline and diesel exhaust. KleenAir owns the patents on which the NoxMaster Systems are based. The type of business that KleenAir is targeting at the outset is the diesel retrofit marketplace. The market segments that KleenAir plans to reach are the government mandated NOx reduction programs and Emission Trading Credit Programs. On June 7th, 2002, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a statement agreeing that curbing pollution from diesel-powered non-road vehicles and equipment should be a top environmental priority. KleenAir is at the cutting edge of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology that significantly reduces nitrogen oxides.
