"Don't Breathe It, Burn It!"

LUTHERVILLE, Md., Aug. 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Alkane, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: ALKN) announced today the launch of the company's newest product offering, Monster Diesel(TM) for Home Heating Oil. The latest addition to the company's line of alternative synthetic fuel additives is designed to make home heating with oil healthier, cleaner, and more efficient by establishing a more complete burn pattern.

Monster Diesel(TM) for Home Heating Oil actually burns the would-be soot that is the typical byproduct of home heating oil, rather than releasing it into the home for users to breathe. As a related benefit, users receive extended use of their home heating oil, since the would-be soot is now being utilized to generate heat rather than released as a byproduct into the air.

In addition to its improved burn pattern, Monster Diesel(TM) for Home Heating Oil increases fuel stability, prolonging the life of the oil even after months of sitting stagnant during hot weather. The additive prevents sludge from forming during summer storage, so the oil is ready to be used again at the first sign of cold weather.

"We are excited to offer a cleaner burning, more energy efficient solution to the home heating market," said Mat Zuckerman, Ph.D., CEO and President of Alkane, Inc. "Cleaner, more efficient technologies are needed in every fuel application if we truly want to move toward responsible energy utilization. Not only does this product cut costs and promote energy efficiency, but it also prolongs the life of the oil season to season, and offers users better air quality in their home. This is the total package."
