A method and apparatus for removing pollutants from a gas by passing the gas through a liquid bath in a reservoir. A non-liquid space is provided above the liquid bath. The non-liquid space includes a cone-shaped baffle for trapping contaminated vapor escaping from the liquid bath and returning the vapor to the liquid bath sensing means is also provided in the non-liquid space for sensing the pollutants escaping from the cone-shaped baffle. Filler means is provided in the liquid bath for dissipating bubbles that may form in the liquid bath.

An apparatus for cleansing the effluent from a combustible gas zone of a chimney so as to substantially reduce the amount of pollutant gas passing into the atmosphere from said effluent, said apparatus comprising: a substantially inert-compositioned inlet flue positioned in said combustible gas zone

An apparatus for cleansing the effluent from a combustible gas zone of a chimney so as to substantially reduce the amount of pollutant gas passing into the atmosphere from said effluent, said apparatus comprising: a substantially inert-compositioned inlet flue positioned in said combustible gas zone; a centrifugal air pump disposed in said flue, said air pump adapted to move effluent from said zone into the liquid portion of a reservoir having a liquid portion and a non-liquid portion; a plurality of vertically spaced filters disposed within said liquid portion, said filters adapted to trap contaminants and dissipate bubbles that may form in said liquid portion when effuent is moved therein; a cone-shaped baffle disposed in said non-liquid portion, said baffle trapping contaminated vapor escaping from said liquid portion, condensing the vapor, and returning the condensed vapor to the liquid portion for further cleansing; and a sensor disposed upwardly of said baffle, said sensor detecting pollutant gas escaping through said baffle.
