The present invention relates to a gas management device suitable for being installed at the outlet o fa particle filter or of a catalytic converter. This device is characterized by a very compact configuration having at least the heat exchanger for an EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) system, particularly suitable for a low pressure system, and an exhaust gas discharge pipe which is part of the exhaust line. According to one embodiment, the device also allows integrating a bypass valve for the EGR heat exchanger. According to another embodiment, the device allows integrating a heat recovery unit participating in the EGR system. According to another embodiment, the device also allows both including a bypass and including a heat recovery unit. The degree of integration with the particle filter of the catalytic converter is maintained in all cases.
A built-in exhaust gas management device characterized in that it comprises:
