Binding Letter Of Intent To Produce And Sell Silicon Carbide Filters


WUXI, China, Aug. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- LiqTech International, Inc. (NYSE MKT: LIQT), a clean technology company that manufactures and markets highly specialized filtration products and systems, and Kailong High Technology Co. Ltd. announced today that they have entered into a letter of intent to establish a diesel particulate filter company in China.





The agreement includes a technology transfer fee of $1.5 million, which is payable upon achievement of certain milestones, and a royalty of $2.25 per liter of diesel particulate filters ("DPF"), which could generate $2.25 million in royalty revenue in 2018 and $4.5 million in royalty revenue in 2019 if the joint venture company achieves Kailong's projections. Kailong believes the market potential for high quality emission control systems is significant in China and together with LiqTech could scale to a capacity of 2 million liters in Silicon Carbide DPF to serve the Chinese and international market. The New China 6 standard for diesel vehicle emissions will likely put China on the forefront of emission standards in the world creating the need for better DPF in China.

LiqTech will own 30% of the company and invest $4 million in the joint venture company over a 2-year period. Kailong will invest a minimum of $2.5 million in LiqTech, conditional to Chinese government approval. In the event that government approval is not obtained, the letter of intent will terminate. In addition, the letter of intent is conditional on execution of definitive agreements.

Zang Zhicheng, Chairman of Kailong, stated, "In the past 15 years, Kailong has established a strong business platform in China for Selective Catalytic Reduction ("SCR") Systems for the diesel vehicle industry. We have been planning to enter into Silicon Carbide ("SIC") production and have had serious discussions with companies in Italy, Japan and South Korea. We have ultimately chosen LiqTech as our partner because of its leadership in SIC technology and its extensive knowledge in working with SIC. We believe that not only for the near term opportunity, but also for the future development of industry leading technology, LiqTech is the right partner. Kailong and LiqTech intend to work closely in sharing Kailong's experience in China and LiqTech's experience in SIC in developing the DPF market in China."

Mr. Aldo Petersen, Chairman of LiqTech, noted, "LiqTech has a long history in the DPF Market. The DPF market in China has been in development for a number of years and we are very impressed by the strong focus that the Chinese Government has on Emission Standards. We believe that the DPF market in China will develop rapidly over the next several years, but to be successful, LiqTech believes the right partner is necessary. We believe we have found that partner in Kailong and are very optimistic about the long-term future of the new company. It will take 12-18 months to establish the new facility, but with our current capacity, LiqTech can service Kailong until the new company can service the DPF market in China."

Guides to Clean VOLVO Diesel Generator Cooling System

VOLVO Engine Cooling System Volvo engine's internal cooling system makes sure the engine works at the right temperature. It is a closed system that must always be filled with a mixture of concentrated coolant and water in order to protect the engine against internal corrosion, cavitation and bursting due to freezing. Coolant of a suitable chemical composition must be used all year round. This also applies in areas where there is never any risk of freezing, to provide the engine of  diesel generator set   with full corrosion protection. The use of anti-corrosion agents alone is not permitted in Volvo Penta engines. Never use water alone as a substitute for coolant. The corrosion protection additives become less effective over time, which means that the coolant must be changed at regular intervals; refer to Maintenance Schedule. The cooling system must be flushed whenever the coolant is changed; Volvo Penta coolants have been prepared to work best ...
