Case studies: documented in figures, not adjectives
The results below come from documented installations by the manufacturer of Delta Xero. The figures come from analyses before and after.

An independent test on a 478 kW Perkins generator measured 8.5 % less NOx and visibly less smoke, simply because the stored diesel was cleaned. For sites with environmental requirements and ESG reporting, that is a figure you can use directly.
At Novium, samples showed a bacterial count of over 100,000 before treatment. After treatment the count was 0, documented in reports before and after.

Figures from other sites are good to know. Figures from your own are better. The pilot programme ends with a report with samples before and after.
