HISTORY
Global Environmental Protection

A philosophy being adopted and echoed around the world, a complex issue fsorcing government policy and political change.

The internal combustion engine, available and used around the world and long recognized as a major contributor to atmospheric pollution is now facing the demands of change.

In 1862 a French man, Mr. Beau de Roches, noted the possibility of producing useable energy from the burning of fuel in a device to be known as the internal combustion engine. It was believed that to produce energy in the manner, four principal operating functions would be required by any design configuration:

• Intake
• Compression
• Power
• Exhaust

In 1872 a German, Dr. Otto, developed the Otto four stroke cycle engine based on Mr. Beau de Rochas original theories. In 134 years the internal combustion engine has undergone no significant change to the basic design configuration, most modifications have been made to external components.

• Fuel Delivery
• Ignition
• Turbo Chargers
• Porting

In October 1993, US President Bill Clinton announced on world wide media that the US government was to heavily subsidize a consortium acting under a development mandate would within ten years and a budget of up to one trillion dollars, produce a new design configuration and prototypes to replace the existing internal combustion engines. World wide, the future is demanding change.

Over many years, large sums of money have been invested by manufacturers around the world in search of increased engine out-put from smaller, more efficient engine designs.

The lack of success of new engine design concepts to progress research and development into a production engine demonstrates the technical and engineering difficulties.

MARKET

The initial market selection for the OX2 engine will be suitably diverse to enable the company to demonstrate to a wide range of industries both the market and application potential of the OX2 engine.

In 134 years the internal combustion engine has gone from the theoretical stage of one man to a world wide industry, producing in excess of one hundred and fifty million new engines per year with annual earnings in trillions of dollars.

The multi dimensional nature of the world's internal combustion engine market makes the manufacturing of engines one of the world's largest and most dynamic industries.

In 1996 all engines manufacturers have one issue in common, "The Demand For Change", Environmental protection dominates. Engine manufacturers must now comply to the world's demand for stringently controlled emission standards and to develop engine technology in the future capable of meeting government regulations, as we progress towards and beyond the year 2001.
