Abstract
A method of imposing a variable load upon the internal combustion engine as it is typically used in the performance of degassing operations includes coupling a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine to a secondary internal combustion engine.
Claims7
A system for controlling emissions of VOC's by combustion of said VOC's in an internal combustion engine, the system comprising a primary internal combustion engine that is connected to a source of VOC's and comprises a crankshaft and a secondary internal combustion engine that also comprises a crankshaft, wherein the crankshafts of the first and second internal combustion engines are coupled together.
A method of controlling emissions of VOC's, the method comprising transporting VOC's to a primary internal combustion engine, into the primary internal combustion engine as a fuel thereof, burning said VOC's in said engine as the fuel, rotating a crankshaft of a secondary internal combustion engine with a crankshaft of the first internal combustion engine.
A mobile anti-pollution apparatus, for the reduction of hydrocarbon emissions, comprising:
- a) a mobile platform upon which is mounted
- b) an internal combustion engine, the system comprising a primary internal combustion engine that is connected to a source of VOC's and comprises a crankshaft and a secondary internal combustion engine that also comprises a crankshaft, wherein the crankshafts of the first and second internal combustion engines are coupled together.
