The present Patent refers to a damper or muffler collector for the exhaust of Diesel, gas, alcohol, natural gas vehicles' engines, and any other liquid fuel or fuel gas which may be used in internal combustion engines; it may be used for vehicle or stationary engines. Dampers or mufflers are currently used for engine exhaust of conventional construction, for the reduction of noise levels within parameters predefined by the legislation. Further, conventional catalysts are also used to hold back some pollutants. The former have an effect on noise pollution only and the latter partially reduce environmental pollution levels. It comprises a box (1) with an inlet opening (4) and an outlet opening (6) for the combustion gases, inner divisions (8), (10) and (11) and admission holes (9) which direct the gases into the operating chambers (13) and (14), with electrodes (15) and (16) where chemical reactions and filtering of pollution elements occur, therefore reducing Carbon Dioxide emissions. This system shows efficiency in reducing the exhaust noise levels and is a multifunctional device for pollution control, offering a variety of applications, constituting the adequate medium to create solutions in water, with different chemical products, providing the development of products, reagents and formulas to neutralize pollution and its effects, using water as a major element.
1- “CATALYST WITH BIOREACTOR FOR COMBUSTION ENGINES”, CHARACTERISTICS:
2- “CATALYST WITH BIOREACTOR FOR COMBUSTION ENGINES”, as described under claim One, comprising it has, close to the admission holes (9) and in the inner part of chambers (13) and (14), electrodes (15)—constituting the anode which receives a positive voltage from the battery or alternator of said combustion engine—and (16) the cathode that receives the negative voltage. These electrodes are electrically insulated from the metal walls and are internally insulated in each chamber (13) e (14), filled with a solution (17) basically constituted of water and reagent products of different types and functions and in addition, a filtering substrate (18) for the purpose of holding back heavy elements and particulates, retained by the screen (19).
3- “CATALYST WITH BIOREACTOR FOR COMBUSTION ENGINES”, as described under claim Two, comprising it has in the inner part of chambers (13) and (14), a formation of electrolytic cells which produce a number of chemical reactions, such as the water electrolysis, separating the Hydrogen in chamber (13) and the Oxygen in chamber (14) in small proportions, which follow separate ways and meet again inside a separate combustion chamber (20), placed after the outlet (6), and containing an ignition system (21).
4- “CATALYST WITH BIOREACTOR FOR COMBUSTION ENGINES”, as described under claim One, comprising it operates as a catalyst and bioreactor, being equipped with a tank (22) which basically contains a water and urea solution that supplies Ammonia for the processing and tank (23) where there is a solution of water and a biologic material, or, specifically, the nitrogenized bacteria, which are pumped into the reactor, inside the cylindrical piece (1), where there is a layer of stones (24) or particulate material of ceramic origin in chambers (13) and (14).
5- “CATALYST WITH BIOREACTOR FOR COMBUSTION ENGINES”, as described under claim One, comprising having a multifunctional device for pollution control, offering a variety of applications, constituting the adequate medium to create chemical solutions in a liquid medium, providing the conditions for the development of products, reagents and formulas to neutralize pollution and its effects, using water as a major element and further, reducing Carbon Dioxide emissions.
6- “CATALYST WITH BIOREACTOR FOR COMBUSTION ENGINES”, as described under claim One comprising a device constituted of a substrate of stones that has shown efficiency if applied by aqueous, water vapor or even dry means and even, with purer particulates.
