If society wants cleaner air and better gas mileage at a time of record highs in both respects, there's no choice then but to search out solutions and shine a spotlight on what we find.
There's absolutely no question that hot-button issues like pollution and, more specifically, the environment are major concerns that have captured major attention in recent decades and require significant, proactive next-generation solutions. Government bodies and environmental institutions all over the world are addressing these problems every day in principle and, more frequently in recent years, through legislation and international agreements.
In 1968 when John J. Mooney and Carl D. Keith invented the catalytic converter perhaps not even they could imagine that today their eco-invention would be not only standard, but also mandated in automobiles across the planet. This new muffler technology is the next logical step and the only tangible, cost-effective solution to solving the problem of pollution produced by internal combustion engines. It's also a sophisticated tool in fighting rising gas prices because this muffler will directly improve fuel mileage by 20%.
Millions of dollars have already been spent on research, development and testing, by the parent company, and the result is a 4th-generation end-user product, called the Auto Emissions Post Regulator. It’s passed rigid feasibility and effectiveness tests by government bodies and other relevant organizations in North America, costs no more to install than an industrial-era muffler, ongoing maintenance is about the same as a typical oil change, and the unit cuts toxic emissions from the internal combustion engine by 97% while increasing oxygen by several percentage points.
In Canada, numerous politicians and leaders, from Premiers to Members of Legislative Assembly and leaders of industry, have already shown significant interest in this new muffler technology as an important tool to reducing toxic emissions globally. Senior U.S. Senators' Dick Durban and Chris Dodd, both with reputations of supporting environmental initiatives, have also studied the technology and provided AD Capital U.S., Inc., the parent company, with letters of support. In 2005, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger commented that this technology and others like it must be implemented if California's smog problem is to be solved. The Governor also provided the company with a written letter reinforcing his personal interest in any type of feasible emissions-reduction technology.
Personally, this technology struck me so much that I wanted to learn more it and find out what this company is all about and what other types of technologies it might also be concocting in their coastal laboratories. Since I'm largely based in Vancouver and the company's main office is located in nearby Burnaby, Canada, I was fortunate enough to spend some time with the people that make everything tick and, frankly, what I learned was nothing less than outstanding.
The presentation of the muffler technology captivated me from the first moment and continued to make an impression as the demonstration proceeded. The exterior of the unit is the same size and has the same basic dimensions as a standard automotive muffler and it attaches to a vehicle also in an identical manner. However, its uniqueness becomes evident by its pioneering sleek body design that smoothly integrates standard architecture with a clip-on/clip-off easy-maintenance chamber that filters and stores the toxic carbon emissions. Similarly to changing your car's oil a couple times a year, a driver using this muffler technology would have its filter changed twice a year (depending on make and type of vehicle) and, since units will all be proprietorially recycled, the driver's filter-change cost could cost less than an oil change. The demonstration model used at the company's state-of-the-art facility on Canada's beautiful west coast has been modified to allow the shell itself to open so that the inside can be viewed in action.
The muffler has three separate, distinct chambers that all serve a separate function. The first reduces noise like a regular muffler, the second uses a patented purple-luminous ultra-violet laser to literally separate the toxic gases from oxygen content, and the third is the actual storage chamber that needs bi-annual maintenance.
Another astounding aspect of the AEPR technology is that it efficiently harnesses heat coming from the engine and converts it into usable energy that's used to power the muffler's filtering system. When asked if this technology will work in the winters months, especially in places that reach -40 degrees Celsius, Mr. Golic explained that as long as the engine can start the heat-energy transfer system will function properly. Apparently, the 5th-generation model of this eco-friendly muffler, currently in the final phases of pre-production development, will improve this heat-energy transfer process to allow the muffler to provide the vehicle's critical systems with emergency power if necessary.
AD Capital's President and chief decision-maker, Ady Golic, is a successful businessman with entrepreneurial experience in many countries around the world including Europe, Australia, United States and Canada. Through his many successful endeavors, Mr. Golic has gained invaluable business and marketing contacts in the United States, Indonesia and Australia. Mr. Golic brings crucial strategic planning skills and corporate direction expertise to AD Capital and, through his leadership, exemplifies a subtle guarantee that this company is going places.
Tom Tary, a former engineer for the U.S. Navy Civil Engineering Corps graduated from the British Columbia Institute of Technology in 1973. His commitment to environmental protection and energy efficiency led to his invention of the Energy Sourcing Power Supply, a patented technology useful for improving the efficiency of electrical distribution systems. Mr. Tary, a pioneering inventor that's made a habit of making history, collaborated with Mr. Golic in the invention process of the AEPR technology. He has more then 30-years of technical and innovative product development experience and possesses expertise in materials, processes, chemistry and physics. Mr. Tary is responsible for all of the R&D of AD Capital and is instrumental in developing the proprietary processes that comprise the AEPR. He spends 100% of his available work time on the affairs of the company.
In a candid conversation with Mr. Golic, he hinted at some of the additional technologies that are currently being prepared for production and open market and, in his usual compelling, very dead-pan manner, described as a patented Perpetual Battery System.
Mr. Golic quietly explained that this innovative technology utilizes two separate batteries that work in conjunction with an innovative mechanical charging system that is used to provide a constant and perpetual source of portable energy. A mobile phone, laptop, digital camera or any other portable electronic device (PED) that is equipped with this technology operates under the power of the first battery until it's drained, and then the sophisticated regulatory functions of the charging system switches the source of power seamlessly to the second battery. This proprietary process also triggers the proprietary internal generator and this is, according to Mr. Golic, the key to this patented, pioneering technology. Amazingly, this symbiotic-charging system is capable of recharging the first battery well before the second is exhausted, then once back on the power of the first battery the entire process begins in reverse, providing a virtually permanent, uninterrupted source of power. Mr. Golic stressed that, despite the amazing properties of this battery system, it is not "perpetual motion" or something that is beyond today's capabilities, but rather a new way of creating renewable energy.
Nonetheless and the battery system aside, it's my firm belief as a journalist and technology buff that this innovative company is on track to becoming an international phenom and market leader in the world-wide fight to reduce toxic emissions from automobiles. Further, and unlike a lot of green technologies that never make it to market because of proactive resistance from the establishment, this emissions reduction technology compliments existing architecture and fuel commodities and should be welcomed and embraced by today's contemporary political and industry leaders.
Lastly, not only is this technology cost-effective but it will save consumers and industry a substantial amount of money in the short and long term because it also, according to some test results, helps improves mileage by a significant 20%. Apparently, according to the inventor and some third-party field tests, the muffler's heat-exchange technology reduces engine heat significantly enough to make a difference in fuel consumption.
It also needs to be noted and, for all intents and purposes, should go without saying, that this review of technology and, more broadly speaking, the company AD Capital, has been compiled from and based on my own first-hand experiences, hours of painstaking due diligence, a review of public records and relevant patents and, most remarkably, through contact and exploratory correspondence with the company's robust legal advisory in British Columbia, Nevada and Texas. Sure this company has went through its share of ups and downs, changes in management and direction, but evolution and growing pains are common in any business, especially when it comes to emerging new technology sectors. Accordingly, AD Capital U.S., Inc., is the current official conduit, proprietor and only vendor of this amazing technology and, essentially, the rebirth of several prior incarnations that have, cumulatively speaking, paved the road for everything successful that's happening today. Today, the company has an amazing leadership at the helm, no financial encumbrances and full legal ownership of all of the technologies under its umbrella.
It should also be said that, as a professional journalist, this company and technology review has been written from a completely neutral, research-based point-of-view. Further, my only intention in writing about this important topic is because we need environmental solutions and these people can deliver the goods.
According to Mr. Golic, the company is presently negotiating and lobbying for legislation in 28 countries including Canada, US and Europe. Officials on both continents are actively testing the new mufflers on vehicles and AD Capital, using its own in-house lobbyists, is proactively pushing for legislative mandates throughout North America that support this patented technology's inevitable deployment in, at the very least, new automobiles coming off the line. Since this muffler is scalable, we might also see older cars with the technology as time passes.
The company also has a beautifully designed, superbly user-friendly and highly informative website to represent their interests on the internet. The company's flash-enabled site includes full animated and video sequences that demonstrate and thoroughly explain the technology, previous emission test results, letters of interest and, in some cases, endorsement from political leaders, the company's audited financial history and current business plan, history of previous generations of the muffler and a preview into what's next for the 5th-generation models.
Two proverbial thumbs up to this company and the technology it's developing that will undoubtedly improve life on our planet, generate new jobs around the world, and have an incredible, significant impact on consumers and industry.
If you're interested in learning more about the company first-hand or getting involved in helping bring this technology to the world, friendly representatives from AD Capital can easily be reached through their website.
