Alternative Environmental Technologies announces distribution partner for Oceania

Alternative Environmental Technologies Holdings Corp, announces that a New Zealand distributor is now representing AET’s SULFEX^TM product line in addition to having represented EcoMix^TM.  The distribution agreement covers AET’s unique, patented, cost-saving SULFEXT^M desulfurization process - a much lower capital investment, operating cost, carbon footprint and greater safety alternative to hydro desulfurization (hydrotreating).

“We are honored to continue our partnership with AET to continue our eco-friendly, sustainable business mission while supporting global environmental improvement initiatives at a reduced cost. At Blended Fuel Solutions New Zealand we are committed to the innovation and production of environmentally friendly fuels,” states Leigh Ramsey MD and Founder.

“We are very excited to continue working with Blended Fuel Solutions New Zealand to bring AET’s environmentally friendly technologies to Oceania and the surrounding region,” stated AET Executive Director, Steve G. Stevanovich.

AET's unique, patented, cost-saving Sulfex™ desulfurization process uses liquids in a low pressure and low-temperature environment to achieve fuel sulfur levels down to less than 10 ppm and produces a finished fuel ready for use. AET's Sulfex™ process is operationally much simpler than the HDS system currently used at refineries to desulfurize fuels, making it considerably less expensive and much safer to use. The process has been independently validated by the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Labs, and the initial mass balance of the plant has also been reviewed and confirmed by a global engineering firm.  The first commercial plant is now in design phase and will be commissioned in early 2024

Other additional AET proprietary Emulsion technologies (EcoMixTM) create stable mixtures of emulsified fuels which contain varying percentages of water content. The emulsion technology can be applied to various base fuels in combination with water, creating a wide array of pollution reducing fuels. These fuels reduce both oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) pollution created during the combustion process. AET's Diesel Oil Emulsions (DOE), Fuel Oil Emulsions (FOE) and Residual Oil Emulsions (ROE) have proven significant emission benefits over diesel, heavy fuel oils and significant advantages over "alternative fuels" because its use requires no engine modifications, uses existing fuel oil infrastructure, and requires virtually no re-training of personnel.
