About Us
OceanAir is the industry leading independent and privately held diesel engine emission control technology development company for locomotive and marine sector as well as pioneer in biofuels production. OceanAir currently has three USEPA certified retrofit/remanufacture kits for EMD engines for compliance with the USEPA 40CFR1033 locomotive regulations and 40CFR1042 marine regulations. The kits provide upgraded rebuild components for EMD 645 series roots blown and turbocharged engines. The kits result in emissions reductions of 50-70% without any fuel penalty or power loss. OceanAir is your lowest cost option for compliance. OceanAir is also the first company to develop marine retrofit kit for EMD roots blown engine to comply with the Tier II marine emissions regulation contained in 40CFR Part 94. OceanAir has three patents (pending) for these diesel kits. OceanAIr EMD kits have been operating successfully in 55 EMD engines to date. For EMD kits, OceanAir has teamed up with Helm Environmental Solutions, a divisions of Helm Rail with access to MEI, a complete locomotive repair facility in East St. Luis. OceanAir was also the first to own and operate a biodiesel production plant in Lakeland, Florida with a capability to produce 10 million gallons/yr ASTM D975 grade biodiesel and industrial/pharmaceutical grade glycerine from virgin vegetable oil, animal fats, and recycled oils. Its integrated acid esterification, base esterification and glycerine refinery produced quality clean fuels products. The plant was sold several years ago to allow OceanAir to concentrate more on research and development of better and more efficient cost-effective clean fuels technologies. OceanAir has two patents (pending) for biodiesel production processes. OceanAir has also worked extensively with CNG compressor technology.
