Substantial CO2 reduction due to new technology

Heerenveen, (ANTARA News/PRNewswire-AsiaNet) - Today, the Dutch company Oxycom launched on a global scale an energy efficient air-conditioning system. Oxycom combines the Oxycell(R), a patented air exchanger, with existing air-conditioning applications.

This new hybrid system cools air more efficiently than all other existing models on the global market, allowing buildings to save between 50 per cent and 60 per cent on their energy bills for cooling and ventilation. The system ventilates up to 100 per cent, ensuring a healthy indoor climate. These figures are validated in tests at Intertek ETL Semko in Cortland, USA, one of the worlds leading scientific institutes for testing ventilation and air-conditioning systems.

According to the Energy Statistics from the US Government(1) 16 per cent of the total U.S. electricity consumption is used for air conditioning. "From this 16 per cent, the Oxycell(R) based air conditioning system has the potential of saving more than 50 per cent," says CEO of Oxycom, E. van der Ende.

Worldwide applications

Oxycom aims to enrol the Oxycell(R) into the American market first, where CO2 emissions are amongst the highest in the world. President Bush(2) announced the intention to reduce American CO2 emissions by 18 per cent in 2012. The introduction of the Oxycell(R) in new and existing air-conditioning and ventilation systems would support this goal effectively.

Low investment costs

As well as substantial energy savings and environmental compliance, the new hybrid system will be competitively priced, making it appealing to end-users to embrace it. Oxycom offers licences to manufacturers in the air-conditioning and ventilation industry.

"Now that the earth is getting overloaded and fossil fuel prices are increasing rapidly, technology should step in with stunning solutions, of which the Oxycell(R) is a good example," says Van der Ende. For more information: www.oxy-com.com
