Abstract
A method is disclosed for controlling pollution emission of an internal combustion engine which method includes the steps of mixing gases exhausted from the engine combustion chambers with gases exhausted from the engine crankcase and then directing the mixed gases back to the combustion chambers. For practicing the method a pollution control device is also disclosed which included means for receiving and mixing together gases from an engine exhaust manifold and crankcase, and means for directing the mixed gases to engine combustion chambers.

A pollution control device for an internal combustion engine comprising a housing having a first inlet for receiving fluids from an engine crankcase, a second inlet for receiving fluids from an engine exhaust manifold, and an outlet for returning fluids to the engine combustion chambers;
- a first partition having an opening therethrough mounted within said housing between said inlets and said outlet to separate a fluid mixing compartment adjacent said inlets from a fluid heating compartment;
- a second partition having at least one aperture therethrough mounted within said housing between said first partition and said outlet to separate a fluid filtering compartment adjacent said outlet from said fluid heating compartment;
- and a tube having at least one port therein mounted within said housing and extending through said fluid mixing compartment between said second inlet and said first partition opening.
