Green Oasis Environmental's Fuel Verified As High
Quality By Independent Laboratory
As High Quality By Independent Laboratory
CHARLESTON, S.C., March 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Oasis Environmental, Inc.
(OTC: GRNO) today reported that the fuel produced from its EnviroEconomics(TM)
processing unit was tested last week by an independent laboratory and that
those results identified the fuel as high quality ASTM No.2 diesel. The
laboratory conducted a broad array of standardized ASTM testing methods as
well as atomic absorption spectroscopy in its evaluation of the blind sample
of fluid submitted by the company. Specifically, analysis indicated: BTU
content per gallon of 141,791, at the high end of an acceptable range of
137,000-142,000; calculated cetane was 47, at the high end of an acceptable
range of 38-49; sulphur content tested at .098 as compared with a standard
acceptable range of .07-.30; viscosity at 60 degrees Fahrenheit tested at
35.6, well within the standard range of 32-40; flashpoint of 154 degrees
Fahrenheit; at the lower (more positive) end of the acceptable range of 130-
200 degrees Fahrenheit; an initial boiling point of 336 degrees Fahrenheit, at
the lower (positive) end of the acceptable range of 332-436 degrees
Fahrenheit; and the distillation curve conformed to the ASTM D86 standard of
332-638 degrees Fahrenheit. In addition, the fuel contained no detectable
amounts of water nor toxic metals (chromium, lead, cadmium or arsenic.)
William D. Carraway, president of Green Oasis Environmental, stated
that "We are very pleased that the results reported to us by the independent
laboratory not only prove that the EnviroEconomics process converts waste oil
into No. 2 diesel fuel, but that this fuel is of a higher quality than fuel
typically sold through service stations. What is even more significant is the
fact that this fuel was processed from very low-quality feedstock that
contained a variety of oil-based wastes and tar. Higher quality feedstock
will only lead to the production of higher quality product."
Green Oasis Environmental, Inc.'s patent pending process produces
synthetic fuels from waste motor oil in a closed cycle, one-step process. The
company manufactures equipment for its own facility as well as markets to
others.
