Abstract
An emissions recycling system is used on a vehicle towing an agricultural implement to enrich the fertility of the soil. The system includes an exhaust collector for collecting exhaust emissions from the internal combustion engine of the towing vehicle and an exhaust distribution system for injecting at least a portion of the exhaust emissions collected by the exhaust collector into the ground worked by the ground working tools of the agricultural implement. Fertility of the soil is enriched by bioactivity within the soil's micro flora which consumes the greenhouse gas and emissions.
Claims15
A method of decomposing organic matter comprising:
- operating an internal combustion engine to produce exhaust emissions;
- passing the exhaust emissions through an emissions conditioning chamber so as to cool the exhaust emissions;
- adding the exhaust emissions to the organic matter subsequent to cooling the exhaust emissions;
- and
- mixing the exhaust emissions into the organic matter.
