Abstract
An exhaust system that includes a catalytic converter, selective catalytic reduction system, a muffler and, for certain applications, a diesel particulate filter that each include at least one filter that has an electric heating element, a metallic coating and a plurality of metal rods extending therethrough. The combination of elements are configured to heat the internal housings of the exhaust system and disrupt the direction of flow of exhaust gases which contain harmful toxic gases and pollutants and aid in removing and/or reducing said toxic gases and pollutants.
Claims14
A catalytic converter, comprising:
- an external shell delimited at an inlet port and an outlet port;
- at least one heater arranged within the external shell that is configured to heat toxic gases and particulate matter that enters the catalytic and at least reduce said eliminate said gases and particulate matter prior to said gases and particulate matter exiting the catalytic converter.
