Highline Technical Innovations, Inc., (PINKSHEETS: HLNT) majority shareholder of Highline Hydrogen Hybrids, announced today results of an emissions test on a 2000 Thermo King SBIII SR+ that comes equipped with an Isuzu D201 34.8 HP engine. This refrigerated unit falls within the Tier II category emission standards set by the EPA. In April, Highline Technical Innovations announced the purchase of a multiple gas analyzer (MGA) from SRI Instruments of California. This analyzer was purchased to enable the company to identify and measure in parts-per-million (ppm) the gases emitted in the exhaust of any engine tested. Data collected by the SRI MGA revealed a significant drop in harmful gases. The testing on the Thermo King SBIII SR+ showed an 18.25% reduction in Nitric Oxide (NO), or NOx as it is commonly referred. CO, or Carbon Monoxide, a poisonous gas, decreased by 100% being completely eliminated from the exhaust, and CO2, a "greenhouse" gas, decreased 59.5%. A spreadsheet of the testing results has been posted on the company's website available for viewing. www.highlineinnovations.com The testing demonstrated that these reductions brought the trailer tested in compliance with Tier IV standards as described by the EPA. CEO Charlton Coats stated, "This is significant for the way we will market to the trucking industry. There are many more refrigerated trailers out there than there are trucks and until now, we didn't know if our technology would bring older refrigerated units in compliance with standards set by the EPA. As these standards become widely enforced, many companies will have to spend money to bring their trailers into compliance. According to the Refrigerated Transporter Magazine the cost to currently retrofit a refrigerated unit averages $2,000-$4,000. To replace the motor only costs $5,000-$10,000, or $20,000 to replace an entire "reefer" system. To replace the whole trailer would cost on average $40,000 or more. These costs don't account for lost revenues or the down time that a trucking company must absorb. Highline Technical Innovations unit would require a significantly smaller investment than other alternatives and would take only 1-2 hours to install, thus lowering the cost of compliance in both time and money. This presents us with a unique opportunity going forward. We can help with emissions compliance while increasing a company's bottom line."
