VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA and DOWNERS GROVE, ILLINOIS--(Aug 18, 2015) - Kelso Technologies Inc. (the "Company" or "Kelso") (KLS.TO)(NYSE MKT:KIQ) -The Company is pleased to report that the Association of American Railroads (AAR) has approved Kelso's new bottom outlet valve (BOV) design for commercial field trial testing.
Bottom outlet valves are utilized on rail tank cars for the primary purpose of unloading the contents of the tank. The BOV must be a low-profile design as it is positioned at the lowest point of the tank so that a full discharge of the tank can be achieved. They are widely used in the transport of hazardous commodities such as crude oil, ethanol, chemicals, petrochemicals and minerals such as molten sulfur as well as many non-hazardous commodity applications.
The development of our patent pending BOV has been driven by customers' demand for a better performing BOV due to chronic performance problems with current products in use in the market today.
