New Government Regulations Spark Interest in DCGT
PAISLEY, FL--(Marketwired - Apr 1, 2014) - Turbine Truck
Engines, Inc. ("TTE") (OTCBB: TTEG) (OTCQB: TTEG) -- Since the
February 2014 announcement by President Obama, for the
Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") and National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration ("NHTSA") to create new
fuel-efficiency CAFE standards and greenhouse gas reductions by
March 2016 for both heavy and medium-duty trucks, Turbine Truck
Engines has received numerous inquiries about its Detonation Cycle
Gas Turbine ("DCGT") engine still in development.
Dedicated to being at the forefront of the green energy
movement, TTE owns an exclusive global license for the
development, manufacturing and marketing of a highly innovative,
low emissions turbine-based truck engine known as the Detonation
Cycle Gas Turbine (DCGT) engine. The DCGT engine is powered by a
patented and innovative new electromagnetic isothermal combustion
process that produces complete combustion of fuel-oxidizer mixtures
in cyclic detonations.
In the DCGT process, the high-pressure gasses produced by these
detonations drive a unique turbine producing shaft horsepower. The
engine's unique combustion process allows the DCGT to operate with
blower air at low static pressure, negating the necessity of
compressing and preheating fuel-oxidizer mixtures prior to
combustion. Once the compression of fuel-oxidizer mixtures has been
eliminated, the engine both achieves higher thermal efficiency in a
simplified mechanical structure, and provides significant
advantages over current diesel, gasoline, and gas turbine
engines.
Michael Rouse, TTE CEO, stated, "Anytime a potential
revolutionary technology is being pursued by a small, private
entity, our companies' experience is that having established, well
funded and motivated partners is critical. With the new required
café standards for semis, buses, garbage trucks and more, the truck
engine industry is showing much greater interest in technology,
such as the DCGT, to build a better future. TTE and its
shareholders are well positioned to participate in this new set of
CAFE standards from the EPA and NHTSA."
