Team Phoenix Group will be installing the (AGES) system on a to be determined Air Force facility.This system will reduce both water usage and cost, and reduce natural gas cost, and emissions.The AGES system works by improving inefficiencies in the water and gas utilities.The Smart Valve eliminates the air pockets from the water line before entering your water meter.This reduces your cost each month, regulates the pressure in your water lines and reduces damage to fixtures.The Eco-Clamp uses magnets to convert the structure of hydrogen atoms, making them burn more efficient and cleaner.The Eco-Clamp installs quickly and without disruption to gas services.With the reduction in the clean water supply and increasing green house gases Air Force faculties are forced to use stringent conservation methods and install complicated,expensive green technologies that do not produce a positive ROI for many years if ever.The AGES system is a simple and inexpensive solution to water conservation and reduction in carbon footprint that has a very rapid positive ROI.Team Phoenix will create a baseline from historic utility data and monitor the performance on the AGES systemproviding a final report after three months.cost savings,green energy,Rapid ROI,Reduced Maintenance,Reduced Carbon Footprint,Proven Technology

Phoenix Group of Virginia, a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), has partnered with Global Waste Solutions (GWS) to create Team Phoenix Group with the goal to help the Air Force reach their energy assurance needs. Team Phoenix Group has created the Air-Force Green Enterprise Suite (AGES) system by combining two innovative green technologies, the Eco-Clamp Fuel Saver and Smart Valve that improve the efficiency of existing utilities saving USAF installations up to an estimated 20% in fuel and water cost a year. The Smart Valve technology controls the air that accumulates in water pipes before it reaches the water meter. This resolves cost waste by preventing paying for the air in the water lines, over consumption by users, and ensuring the meter reads honestly. The Eco-Clamp is a patent-pending system that saves money and reduces emissions by increasing the combustion efficiency of fossil fuels. Team Phoenix Groups Eco-Clamp utilizes magnetic fields to achieve a hotter, cleaner, more thorough combustion. The magnets reverse the electron spin in hydrocarbon fuels thereby allowing oxygen molecules to freely associate with them during combustion. The AGES system can save USAF installations up to an estimated 20% in fuel and water cost a year.
