Outdoor Power Equipment
NOXFOX catalytic filters are efficient and low cost, and will help equipment manufacturers and consumers meet new EPA regulations. The EPA estimates that by 2030 the new regulations on small engines will reduce annually:

3,000,000,000 pounds of carbon monoxide
1,200,000,000 pounds of volatile organic hydrocarbon emissions
260,000,000 pounds of NOx emissions
11,000,000 pounds of direct particulate matter emissions
