Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to an apparatus and method for treating exhaust gases, and more particularly to a combustion engine treatment device for removing and/or reducing pollutants contained in the combustion engine effluent gases.
- the present invention reduces carbon dioxide, substantially reduces hydrocarbons and virtually eliminates the exhaust of carbon monoxide.
- Electrostatic precipitation is widely used in such applications and involves the application of high voltages to electrodes positioned in the exhaust gas stream. This process induces ionization of gas particles, which in turn cause particulates suspended in the gas to acquire a charge from contact with the ionized gas particles. The charged particles are then collected at oppositely charged diodes, which must be eventually "cleaned” or "scrubbed".
- a significant drawback of electrostatic precipitation is that only minute particulate matter can be precipitated out of the exhaust stream. The process is ineffective at removing gaseous contaminants such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
- Burners, activated carbon and water curtains are widely used to reduce hydrocarbon and volatile organic compound emissions.
- these pollution control devices are impractical for use with internal combustion engine vehicles.
- a significant drawback of burners and water curtains is a large operation cost and activated carbon is easily clogged when treating a particulate laden air stream.
- METHOD Masters U.S. Patent 5,419,123, discloses an emission control device and method for treating exhaust gases to reduce pollutants contained therein.
- the device includes a treatment chamber having a first metal screen, a second metal screen and a perforated chemical substrate disposed between the first and second metal screens.
- An electrode disposed a distance from the first screen and is applied a voltage so that sparks are generated between the electrode and the first screen.
- the Masters patent may reduce emissions in the exhaust gas it has several limitations. Since an electrode is used to deliver the spark the electrified area is concentrated to a portion of the first screen and hence is not evenly distributed over the entirety of the screen. Consequently, a portion of the gas stream is not sufficiently treated.
- the present invention provides an apparatus and method for reducing or eliminating emissions from a gas stream.
- the gas stream is treated by a treatment chamber in series with a second chamber having perforated strata.
- the treatment chamber includes a first metal grid supplied with high voltage and a second metal grid grounded to the treatment chamber to generate sparks over the entirety of the first grid to the second grid thereby causing electronic ionization. Since all of the air stream is required to flow through the first and second grids, all of the air stream is fully treated.
- the second metal grid is conductively connected to the second chamber and, therefore, the entire connection and the second chamber are also electronically ionized. Due to the treatment caused by electronic ionization the strata can fully perform with significantly less use of noble metals than with conventional catalytic converters. Although maximum pollution reduction occurs with the use of about one 1/10 troy ounce of platinum, rhodium, or palladium, favorable results are achieved without the use of any noble metal.
- a further advance is a high efficiency induction coil.
- the coil applies voltage from a source to the first screen at an efficiency of at least eighty percent thereby causing very hot sparks between the first grid and the second grid. Additionally, this coil is configured to dampen the magnetic field created by the induction coil. Dampening the magnetic field is particularly important in automotive applications and other applications which are integrated with a computer since the magnetic field can create random cycling current in the electrical system so as to cause false signals to be sent to the computer.
- the present invention substantially reduces carbon dioxide and hydrocarbons and virtually eliminates the exhaust of carbon monoxide.
- the system can be used to treat emissions from industrial effluent stacks, spray booth, styrene manufacturing, burning hazardous waste, purifying air streams among a variety of other industrial processes, and is particularly useful for treating emissions from the combustion of carbon or fossil fuels.
- the system can be installed as original equipment, an add on device or as an after market device.
- the principal object of the present invention is to provide an improved apparatus and method for reducing pollutants from a gas stream.
- the apparatus includes a first body form a first chamber. First and second metal girds are fixed within the first chamber so that the gas stream entering the first chamber passes through the grids.
- An electrical connector is attached to either the first grid of the second grid and connects that grid to a voltage source causing electrical sparks to be generated between the first grid and the second grid.
- a pulsing mechanism pulses the applied voltage at a predetermined frequency.
- a second body forming a second chamber has a perforated strata through which the gas stream flows .
- Another object of the invention is to provide a voltage difference between the first grid and the second grid of at least 20,000 volts. Additionally, the pulsing mechanism is capable of pulsing the voltage at a frequency of greater than 1,600 pulses/minute.
- a f rther object of the present invention is to fix the nearer of the first or second grid a distance between 2.54 cm (1 inch) and 30.48 cm (12 inches) from the strata. Additionally, another object is to space the first grid from the second grid a distance between 0.635 cm (1/4 inch) to 2.54 cm (1 inch).
- Another object of the present invention is to use an electrical connector which is adapted to apply at least 80 percent of the voltage the connector receives.
- a further object of the present invention is to for the electrical connector to include a plurality of bare wires juxtaposed in a first curvilinear row and coiled equal-distantly about a curvilinear centerline thereby forming a curvilinear helix shape.
- a plurality of insulated wires are juxtaposed in a second curvilinear row and coiled around the bare wires.
- An insulated center- wire is positioned along the curvilinear centerline and disposed within the bare wires and the insulated wires.
- a still further object is for the electrical connector to use four or five bare wires, three insulating wires and an insulated center-wire.
- Another object of this invention is to provide a method of treating exhaust gasses to reduce pollutants contained therein.
- the method includes the steps of passing exhaust gasses through a first body forming a chamber.
- the gasses are passed through a first grid and a second grid fixed within the chamber.
- the grids are separated a predetermined distance from each other.
- Voltage is supplied from a voltage source to either the first or the second gird to generate sparks between the first grid and the second grid.
- the voltage is pulsed at a predetermined frequency.
- the exhaust gasses also pass through a strata.
- a further object of the invention is to provide a voltage difference between the first grid and the second grid of at least 20,000 volts at a frequency of at least 1,600 pulses/minute.

- the insulated wires 38 can be 18 gauge.
- the first chamber 16 a segment of an exhaust gas conduit 40. Although the first chamber 16 is shown in Figure 1 as upstream of the second chamber 18, the first chamber 16 can also be placed generally anywhere in-line in the exhaust system such as, for example, after the second chamber 18.
- the first chamber 16 is preferably cylindrical and formed of metal.
- the first and second metal grids 26, 30 are perpendicular to a central axis 40 of the first chamber 16.
- the grids 26, 30 have a meshed pattern and completely fill the cross-sectional area of the first chamber 16 so that all of the exhaust gases pass therethrough.

- the second grid 30 is conductively secured to the continuous wall 20 by any conventional means such as welding.
- the grids 26, 30 are fabricated from chromium, stainless steel or magnesium alloy. However, other conductive compositions can also be used.
- the induction coil 14 passes through the continuous wall 20 and attaches to the first grid 26 to directly apply voltage thereto. When voltage is applied to the first grid 26, the entire grid 26 is placed at the supplied voltage potential causing a myriad of electrical sparks to be generated across the gap between the first grid 26 and the second grid 30. Although the first grid is shown upstream of the second grid 30, this positioning can be reversed.
- the second chamber 18 is preferably cylindrical and has a metal shell 42.
- the second chamber 18 includes a proximal diffusion end 44, a central portion filled with strata 46 and a distal end 48 for exhausting the treated exhaust gases.
- the strata 46 can be formed of silica or metal having between 7.9 holes per cm (20 holes per inch) and 157.5 holes per cm (400 holes per inch) to allow the exhaust gas stream to flow therethrough. Larger holes 50 are preferred when treating heavier emissions such as emissions from a diesel engine while smaller holes 50 are used with lighter emissions.
- the holes 50 are generally linear and parallel with a central axis of the second chamber 18. However, a honeycomb strata can be used.
- the strata 46 will contain about 1/10 of one troy or less of noble metals such as palladium, platinum or rhodium.
- the strata can be formed without containing noble metals.
- the distal end 48 can be provided with a series of baffles 52 which muffles sound and can serve to replace a standard muffler.
- pollutant laden exhaust gas stream flows through the exhaust gas conduit 40 into the first chamber 16 through the intake end 22, pass through the first grid
- a predetermined distance between the first and second grids 26, 30 typically ranges from 0.635 cm (1/4 inch) to 2.54 cm (one inch) depending on the voltage of the first grid 26.
- the grids 26, 30 are spaced apart 0.318 cm (1/8 inch) for the first 20K volts and then an additional 0.318 cm (1/8 inch) for each 10K volt increment.
- the first chamber 16 can be located anywhere in-line the exhaust system but generally is placed between 2.54 cm (one inch) and 30.48 cm (12 inches) from the second chamber 18.
- any voltage source and pulsing mechanism sufficient to supply the necessary voltage at the proper frequency can be used.
- the applicant has determined that a voltage of at least 20K volts at a pulse rate of at least 1600 pulses/minute is preferred for optimizing reduction of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and hydrocarbons depending on the exhaust gas stream being treated.
- the voltage will be in the range of 40K to 100K volts and the pulse rate will be in the range of 1500 to 10,000 pulses/minute.
- wetter exhaust such as exhaust from a diesel internal combustion engine requires higher voltage and pulse frequency than emissions from lighter fuels such as unleaded gasoline or propane.
- an output between 40K - 60K volts at 2000 - 3000 pulses/minute is preferred for optimizing reduction of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide.
- the voltage and frequency are also set in proportion to the displacement of the engine with the upper values more suitable for larger engines.
- a voltage source 12 can be any voltage source which provides the predetermined voltage.
- a pulsing mechanism can be any device which sets the voltage at the proper frequency.
- Figure 1 illustrates that the voltage source 12 can comprise a voltage box 54 and an automotive battery 56.
- the primary windings of the voltage box 54 is supplied with 3 volts from a 12 volt automotive battery 56 and outputs 40K volts to the induction coil 14 at a pulse rate of about 2500 pulses/minute.
- small engines such as two cycle engines which have a magneto, can supply voltage at the proper frequency to the first grid 26 by the magneto without use of a battery or voltage box.
- the inventive induction coil 14 is configured to deliver at least 80% of the voltage to the first grid 26 and to dampen the magnetic field created by the induction coil 14 so to not create amperage greater than 0.5 amp, and preferably not greater than 0.4, amp in adjacent wiring.
- Current supplied through the plug wire 34 creates a magnetic field.
- This magnetic field is dampened by the combination of copper wires 36 and the insulated copper wires 38. Dampening the magnetic field is particularly important in automotive applications and other applications which are integrated with a computer since the magnetic field can create random cycling current in the electrical system. At a level of about 0.5 amp false signals are sent to the computer.
- exhaust gas pollutants are treated by electronic ionization at both the chemical and thermal level.
- Electronic ionization is caused by supplying voltage at a frequency to the first grid 26.
- Electronic ionization occurs between the first and second screens 26, 30.
- the exhaust gas conduit 40 and second chamber 18 including the strata 46 are ionized. Since the first grid 26 receives all the exhaust gas air stream and the voltage is supplied to the entirety of the first gird 26, all of the exhaust gas is fully treated by electronic ionization.
- Exhaust gas exiting the first chamber 16 enters the second chamber 18 and passes through the strata 46.
- the second chamber 18 treats the exhaust gas stream by use of a catalyst in addition to electronic ionization.
- the preferred strata 46 contains about one troy ounce of noble metals such as, for example, platinum, or palladium, which serve as a catalyst.
- the catalyst oxidizes carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon pollutants to form carbon dioxide and water.
- the strata 46 also has the benefit of producing oxygen (O 2 ) during operation of the emission control system 10.
- Ozone (O 3 ) is created at the first grid 26. The strata 46 oxidizes the ozone and generates oxygen therefrom.
- the second chamber 18 can be made of metal without use of a noble metal.
- the applicant has found that the pollutant removal efficiency of the system 10 free of noble metals is comparable to that of current catalytic converters, but less than the preferred embodiment.
- the present invention can be used with a standard catalytic converter, the reduction or elimination of noble metals from the second chamber 18 provides a significant cost savings.
- the system 10 can be at full operating condition in as little as thirty seconds.
- voltage is supplied to the first chamber 16 as soon as the ignition is turned to the "key-on" position thereby generating electrical sparks before exhaust gasses are generated.
- the second chamber 18 fully operates at low heat typically in the range of 54°C (130°F) to 93°C (200°F) as measured at the outside shell 42. This shell temperature correlation to an exhaust gas temperature of about 204°C (400°F).
- the present invention has been explained primarily in use with an automobile, the present invention is not limited to such.
- the system 10 could be mounted to an industrial effluent stack, to an exhaust stack from a spray booth, or to other such effluent stacks.
- the first chamber 16 could be supplied pulsed voltage from any number of independent sources.
