Coal-Fired Power Generator Shows Improved Efficiency with Green Plus® Combustion Catalyst

Loss On Ignition Lowered 20%

July 13, 2006 – London, England – Green Plus Ltd, sister company of Biofriendly Corporation in the United States, announced today the completion of a report by E.ON Power Technology in the United Kingdom. The report shows the details of testing done by E.ON on Green Plus in a test boiler of a coal-fired power plant. The purpose of the test was to determine how the product’s ability to improve combustion would affect the efficiency of the power plant. The report shows promising results when Green Plus is added to a coal-fired generator.

The report states, “The Green Plus Catalyst showed benefits in LOI (Loss on Ignition) carbon burnout, with no increase in NOx (Nitrogen Oxides) and in some cases, a small NOx reduction.” LOI defines the amount of unburned carbon in fly ash. A lower LOI represents less carbon residue in the ash, which means the boiler is operating more efficiently, with lower emissions. During the test, Green Plus lowered LOI by at least 20%. Alan Thompson, a member of the Test & Measurement Group from Power Technology stated, “This was a very interesting test where the Green Plus catalyst for pulverized coal firing showed benefits in LOI reduction with no increase in NOx.” The fact that the research boiler at Power Technology is optimized for low LOI and low NOx makes the test result even more remarkable.

June 26, 2006 – London, England – Green Plus Ltd, sister company of Biofriendly Corporation in the U.S. announced today that it has taken over the former Ford Motor Company Emissions Laboratory in Aveley, near London. The laboratory will be used to perform independent emissions and device testing for vehicle and engine makers as well as serve as a research and development facility for Green Plus Ltd and Biofriendly Corporation. The companies are the makers of Green Plus®, a liquid fuel combustion catalyst that reduces harmful emissions and improves fuel economy in gasoline, diesel and heavy fuel oil.  

Green Plus has hired several members of the former Ford Motor Company staff, including Tony French, who served as manager of the facility for over 20 years. Initially, the lab will operate one test cell that can measure emissions for cars and light trucks to the level of Euro 4, the highest emission standard in effect in the European Union. The lab will utilize a Horiba Mexa 9000 system the company acquired from British Petroleum that has been fully reconditioned. The company will be seeking UK Vehicle Certification Authority (VCA) approval and it expects the lab to open in September, eventually operating three test cells. (More...)
