           SAVE THE WORLD AIR, INC. RECEIVES UNITED STATES PATENT FOR
                               MARK I ZEFS DEVICE


Los Angeles, March 2 /PRNewswire-First Call/ --Save the World Air, Inc. (Pink
Sheets: ZERO) announced that the patent for the company's Mark I ZEFS device has
been granted. Following examination of United States Patent Application No.
10/275946, the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued a Notice of
Allowance dated January 24, 2005.

The ZEFS devices create magnetic fields to reduce the size of the fuel molecules
passing from the carburetor or center point fuel injector of the vehicle to the
inlet manifold prior to combustion. This creates an atomization process that
enhances the efficiency of combustion, which reduces harmful toxic emissions and
increases fuel economy.

The company's CEO, Edward L. Masry stated: "This exciting news has been
anxiously awaited and is of extreme importance to Save the World Air. The
issuance of the U.S. patent is a substantial step forward in the status of the
portfolio as a whole and will be persuasive in the prosecution of corresponding
applications in other countries".

The company currently has patents approved in New Zealand, South Africa and
Monaco. Patents are pending in more than sixty other countries including Europe,
Mexico, China, Japan, India and Indonesia.

Save the World Air, Inc. was created to develop devices using proprietary
technologies that can be installed on motor vehicles, motorcycles and stationary
engines to reduce harmful emissions, improve fuel efficiency and/or improve
performance.
