Overview of Revetec

REVETEC is an engine design company and developer of the “Controlled Combustion Engine” (CCE). The CCE is an internal combustion engine that is smaller lighter, cleaner and produces higher torque due to higher mechanical transfer than equivalent conventional engines. It is cheaper to manufacture.

Patented across key markets globally, Revetec’s break-through design has a higher bottom-end mechanical advantage over equivalent conventional engine. This in turn increases the overall engine efficiency making the engine significantly more fuel-efficient than a conventional engine, with increased power/torque ratios.

The advantages of Revetec’s engine technology can be applied to most internal and external combustion engines for use in motor vehicles, trucks, buses, motorcycles, pumps and generators, light aircraft engines, diesel and marine engines.
See “Development / Interest in Manufacture or Development” for opportunities to access Revetec’s patented engine technology.

The engine has an increase in torque which is what drives the vehicle. It follows that the earlier in RPM high torque is achieved, and the longer it is available, the more efficient the engine is – resulting in savings in fuel consumption and fewer emissions. This Patented design increases the mechanical advantage of an engines bottom end from approx. 64% (conventional) to an amazing 87%+. This increases the total thermal efficiency of a conventional engine.

The technology can be applied to most internal and external combustion engines with greater efficiency. Namely, motor cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, pumps and generators, light aircraft engines and marine engines. The CCE engine is also smaller, lighter and cheap to manufacture. These advantages also mean the CCE design is ideally placed to become a key component in automotive Hybrid Electric Systems. Revetec is commencing the marketing phase for the licensing of its technology of a very powerful and fuel-efficient engine at a most crucial time in the combustion engine industry.

This is a period of convergence of important worldwide trade issues which, we expect, will create an impetus for the adoption of our technology. In our view, with the increase of the price of oil there will be consumer pressure for car manufacturers to adopt engines which consume less fuel. Car companies worldwide, including the most successful ones, are experiencing the strains of fierce competition from mainland Chinese car companies and are looking for means and ways to stem their losses and to increase profitability. Closing factories and shedding thousands of employees is only one of the strategies currently being adopted.

We predict that the car companies will be looking for new technologies to improve their business. Perhaps the most important factor, in the Directors’ view, is both China’s and India’s entry into the World Trade Organisation. Chinese and Indian motor vehicle manufacturers are now required to have their own engine and to stop the practice of reverse engineering in order to comply with international trading laws. To this end, car companies in both countries have already expressed interest in adopting our technology.

The environmental issue is becoming critical to combustion engine producers. Tough worldwide emission specifications are now in place in both China and India. Car manufacturers are seeking an efficient engine to replace their existing engines, as these engines currently do not comply with the tough emission standards in those countries. Legislative change is also creating opportunities for our engine in the United States of America. With the US Environment Protection Agency indicating that it will phase out the use of aviation gas in the foreseeable future and replacing it with jet fuel (kerosene), which is already available in most airports, there is urgency for a lightweight compression/ignition type engine to replace the existing light aircraft engine.

Our engine is adaptable for use with this fuel type and the development of such an engine will be a key focus of Revetec. Revetec has completed its design on its prototype, which could now be adapted by our customers to meet their specific requirements. Revetec’s business model is simple – it proposes to license its technologies to combustion engine producers worldwide, which means that Revetec can earn revenue without the risks associated with other companies where high overheads, employee issues and financial controls are major issues for growing international companies.
