New technology has to clear lots of hurdles before it gets to market. It is nice when someone makes it work.   

    (The following is a recent press clip I found. I am glad Julius got the award because he is such a nice guy. )

The world's largest sea port, the Port of Los Angeles (POLA), announced on Nov 20, 2008 that  International Metals & Energy Technology, Ltd. , a developer of GreenPower technology will receive the Air-Quality-Mitigation-Incentive-Program (AQMIP) Award exceeding $740,000 to demonstrate GreenPower technology  on the ocean going vessel (OGV)'s diesel engine.

With the GreenPower technology retrofitted on existing engines, the OGV can  save fuel costs by $2 millions per year and reduce NOx emission by 50%, with  immediate benefits to enhancing the public health by improving the air-quality in the port vicinities in the USA.

With retrofitting existing trucks & cars, the patented  technology saves fuel and reduce NOx emission  by adding  tap-water into a specially designed muffler (GreenPower Muffler).  Some worldwide auto-industry leaders are  trying to use Urea solution  to neutralize NOx gases at high costs.

 GreenPower technology was high-lighted as  a "straight forward" fuel saving technology by the Diesel Power Magazine, P.56, November Issue, 2008: Jason Thompson of the Diesel Power Magazine described:  "This inventor, Julius J. Rim Ph.D brought a working model (to the 2008 DEER Conference). He went from 500 miles on one tank to 600 miles from a tank in his Mercedes diesel car. By utilizing waste heat, his muffler boils water, turning it into steam.  The steam is fed into the engine where it gets turned into Hydrogen inside the combustion chamber.  This process is said to reduce both NOx and Particulate Matter (PM) and save fuel."  Contact: Dr. Julius J.
