these cats? that would be nice, I hear ya there bud~
NIAGARA FALLS, Ontario, Oct. 2, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 310 Holdings Inc. (the "Company") (OTCBB:TRTN - News) is pleased to announce that it has received confirmation from independent lab tests that its Plastic2Oil fuel has passed ASTM testing.
Samples of fuels were created from various plastic feedstocks and were tested (ASTM D 5453) and confirmed a sulphur concentration less than 8.4 ppm (parts per million). Additionally the water and sediment tests (ASTM D 1796) confirm that its fuel contained less than 0.005% water and sediment. Density tests also placed the fuel in the gasoline range.
Refineries management expressed concerns about sulphur content, which must test under 0.05% for approval. The Company's fuel tested at only 8.4 parts per million, which is far below accepted fuel.
ASTM standard tests are used by refineries and diesel/gas distribution to determine the quality and acceptability of crude/diesel/and gasoline. They are also used to test large batches of fuel before acceptance into refineries. See http://www.astm.org
The Company has already contacted refineries where its initial Plastic2Oil joint-venture sites will be established and the Company is shipping 1 gallon samples to ready local refineries for its fuel.
To facilitate global growth of its process, the large international lab is now doing a complete analysis of the liquor to establish where the fuel can be blended. Upon completion of these tests they will recommend refineries that would be willing to purchase the feedstock.
John Bordynuik, 310 Holdings Inc. CEO and President, related, "We are very excited and pleased with these results. This confirmation is another important milestone in our growth model as it provides credible evidence that the Company's Plastic2Oil technology is viable and has potential for commercial success. All types of different plastics produced nearly the same fuel, management believes, due to our catalyst. Due to the extensive tests that we have done, the independent testing and verification of the fuel, the wide variety of feedstock that has been tested, and the results we achieved from our catalyst, I have focused resources to finish the large processor as soon as possible. With the Pak-It acquisition complete, we are exploring options for an interactive conference call. Upon the selection of a vendor, I will announce a conference call date through a Press Release in the near future."
