The
ORYXE® LED for Biodiesel additive technology passed two official performance tests sanctioned by the Texas Commission of Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to demonstrate the necessary emissions reductions for the TxLED program (30 TAC §114.315(c) of the TCEQ regulations). The company passed the second test twice. |

TxLED Alternative Formulation Test 1
Test data showed that a B20 candidate fuel (20% biodiesel and 80% standard EPA diesel) treated with the ORYXE additive for Biodiesel produced an equivalent
or better emissions profile than an TxLED reference fuel (untreated) for the following
emissions: Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx), Total Hydrocarbons (THC), Non-Methane Hydrocarbons
(NMHC), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Particulate Matter (PM). The test was completed
at West Virginia University National Research Center for Alternative Fuels, Engines
and Emissions Laboratory, following the TCEQ’s robust testing compliance procedure that includes onsite test supervision by TCEQ personnel.
TxLED Alternative Formulation Test 2 Test data showed that a B20 candidate fuel (20% biodiesel and 80% TxLED) treated with the ORYXE additive
produced an equivalent or better emissions profile than a TxLED reference fuel (untreated) for the following emissions: Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx), Total Hydrocarbons (THC), Non-Methane Hydrocarbons (NMHC), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Particulate Matter (PM). The test was completed at West Virginia University National Research Center for Alternative Fuels, Engines and Emissions Laboratory, following the TCEQ’s robust testing compliance procedure that includes onsite test supervision by TCEQ personnel.
CARB Scoping Test
ORYXE Energy also successfully completed a California Air Resource Board
(CARB) B20 scoping test at West Virginia University National Research Center for
Alternative Fuels, Engines and Emissions Laboratory.
