IMG_20120627_142549The distributor of a new device touted to cut emissions and increase mileage on vehicles is testing the product on city and county vehicles.

Technicians installed 10 Smart Emissions Reducers on city of Rockford vehicles Wednesday at City Yards. Winnebago County has been testing the devices since April.

Larry Robertson of Rockford, of Smart Air Fuel Saver, said the product, which attaches to an engine’s PCV line, breaks down emissions into combustible components and sends them back through the engine.

“It makes the exhaust combustible, which lowers emissions and increases mileage,” Robertson said.

The company said the product, which retails for $521, reduces emissions as much as 50 percent to 90 percent, and increases fuel mileage by up to four miles per gallon.  The parent company, Extreme Energy Solutions, claims results will vary from vehicle to vehicle, and the key form and functionality is that to lower harmful vehicle emissions.

Since this story has aired, City of Rockford has experenced positive results.

Emission Released by Cars Can be Reduced

June 27, 2012  ROCKFORD

Syndicated from WIFR CBS News 23-

IMG_20120627_142526 Protecting the community is not the only thing on the Rockford Police Department’s mind, they are also working hard to save people money by updating some of their vehicles.

Smart Air Fuel Saver LLC and Extreme Energy Solutions installed a device in a number of detective vehicles and general services vehicles today that reduces emissions released by the car.

While at the same time the device also boosts cars fuel mileage by half a mile per gallon. Cost should not be a worry, the device is expected to pay itself off in less than a year and save municipalities anywhere from three to seven thousand dollars annually.  Larry Robertson, of Smart Air Fuel Saver hopes this is just the first step of many.

“As we move forward one of the big benefits for the children in Rockford that go to school is lower emissions on school buses. That is also in our future to be able to kill emissions on buses that are idling and children having to breathe those emissions as they move forward.”, Roberston.

One day the company hopes that all cars will be made with this feature when they roll of the assembly line. Samuel Burlum, CEO of the Ogdensburg, New Jersey based company, Extreme Energy Solutions, shared his vision of seeing this device become standard equipment on most new vehicles.

Samuel K. Burlum the CEO/President of Extreme Energy Solutions was one of the 2012 invited speakers at the World Green Energy Symposium, held in Washington DC at the Washington Post Conference Center on Wednesday and Thursday, June 20 and June 21.

Burlum was one of the keynote speakers during a Thursday afternoon session, “A Discussion on Transportation Solutions – Private Sector”, with Moderator and Panelist Kevin Wells of MBE Services of New York & New Jersey Minority Supplier Development Council, Burlum, and Akili West, President of Reclamation Energy, LLC, a Hydrogen Fuel Applications company.

Members of Extreme Energy Solutions who attended participated in classes, and discussions during the two days.

Some other speakers and guests in addition to Burlum included: Dee Wallace, Academy Award nominated actress; Al Cole, CBS Radio talk show host for “People of Distinction” and World Green Energy Symposium Communications Director, Opera Performer Frank Basile, who sang the National Anthem, Vincent C. Gray, Mayor of the District of Columbia, and George Davis, professor emeritus of Rutgers University.

During his time at the podium, Burlum considered the challenges that communities are faced with in terms of transportation, and solutions, which may be more progressive in terms of environmentally friendliness and sustainability.

“We must bridge the gap where we are today, and where we want to be,” Burlum said.

One of the challenges, in addition to infrastructure, is the current fuel supply.

“The real source of the problem is not the vehicles, it’s the fuel,” said Burlum.

Burlum gave a nod to innovators who discovered fuel-saving technologies in their own backyards. Burlum said historically some automakers, like Ford, worked closely with “garage innovators”, who helped the big manufacturers develop better gas mileage.

Focusing on fleets and developing technologies within them, Burlum said, is one way to bridge the gap.

Additionally, this enhances job creation, said Burlum. He quoted a figure how for every billion in sales in the green industry, there are 7,000 direct and indirect jobs.

Following the World Green Energy Symposium, Burlum told The Alternative Press, “The World Green Energy Symposium was a great platform to have decision makers, industry professionals, community advocates, and professors IMG_20120621_072321from schools of thought sitting at the same table, discussing key concerns and solutions to environmental and economic stresses that society faces today. Not many forums have an all-inclusion of stakeholders from policy makers to the individuals and entities that must spend the financial resources to meet such initiatives.  Many parties were represented from many environmental and energy perspectives, encompassing green tech and green policy from the top to a local micro level. This complete inclusion allows for our society to consider the right options for the right geographical and demographical reasons. The World Green Energy Symposium also made available the ability for industry to partner together in mitigating technological and customer service challenges, thus providing the best products and services to the clients who engage in green policy practices.”
