An anti-pollution device includes a cylindrical chamber attached in line with the exhaust of an automotive vehicle, which in conjunction with the velocity and heat of emitted exhaust gases further heats and burns emitted gases exiting the tail pipe into relatively harmless non-polluted vapors. The chamber is affixed in line with the exhaust tail pipe of an automotive vehicle near the exhaust manifold and consists of a cylindrical outer and inner shell with insulation therebetween with a three stage system constructed internally along the length of the chamber for progressively heating and burning of exhausted gases and finally cooling thereof. In one form the first stage consists of a spiraled ceramic cone for accelerating and concentrating the exhaust fumes into the second stage consisting of a series of ceramic rings for burning of exhaust gases, the burned exhaust fumes then passing therefrom into the third stage consisting of a porcelain lined cooling pipe for cooling of exhaust gases prior to their emission out of an automotive vehicle. In another form there is a source of energy for heating the gases in a Venturi tube combustion section by igniting the gases, and there is further provided an arrangement for introducing controlled amounts of air in the combustion section to enhance combustion of the gases.

An anti-pollution device for treatment of the exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine powered vehicle comprising an elongated housing, an exhaust gas intake element at a first inlet end of said housing adapted for connection to the exhaust manifold of said internal combustion engine whereby exhaust gases are delivered to the interior of said housing, an exhaust gas discharge element having an outlet at the opposite end of said housing, means dividing the interior of said housing into a plurality of separate flow interconnected exhaust gas treatment stages, a first stage providing a converging cone structure having an outlet end of lesser cross section than an inlet end whereby the exhaust gases are accelerated as they are delivered to a downstream intermediate stage, a plurality of longitudinally spaced apart ceramic disc gas flow diverter elements disposed at and defining said intermediate stage with each of said disc diverter elements providing a central opening with slots through said disc extending radially therefrom for the passage and expansive flow of said exhaust gases, and a downstream cooling stage for the reception and cooling of exhaust gases that have passed said intermediate stage, said cooling stage including a flow pipe disposed within said elongated housing and spaced from a wall portion thereto to provide a chamber intermediate said cooling pipe and said housing wall portion, said discharge element being interconnected with said flow pipe of said cooling stage whereby the treated exhaust gases are released through said outlet.
