An exhaust system assembly including a catalyst housing, a catalyst core, and a swirler tube positioned inside the catalyst housing. The swirler tube has a plurality of openings that permit radial exhaust flow into an inner volume of the swirler tube from the catalyst housing. One end of the swirler tube has blades that extend inward and include oblique surfaces arranged at oblique angles relative to a centerline axis of the swirler tube. These blades induce a vortex in the exhaust gases exiting the first swirler tube end. The swirler tube is arranged inside the catalyst housing such that a sequential flow path is created where the exhaust gases flowing through the catalyst housing must first pass through the openings in the swirler tube and then by the blades at the first swirler tube end.

STAXLINK™ is a duct system and method for conveying exhaust gas from an exhaust pipe of an emissions source to a purification unit during an Emissions Reduction as a Service (ERaaS) operation. Example emissions sources include oceangoing vessels and buildings structures. The duct is temporarily installed onto the emissions source without a crane. The duct is supported by the emissions source itself for the duration of the ERaaS operation.

Provided is an air-purification device using a liquid reducing agent, comprising a pollution gas suction opening (3), a pollution gas purifying cavity (1) and a clean gas exhaust opening (11), wherein the pollution gas purifying cavity (1) is divided into a plurality of cavity bodies by a plurality of semi-plate-porous pollution-particle vertical isolation plates (7); a pollution cleaning liquid is placed in the pollution gas purifying cavity (1); one end of the semi-plate-porous pollution-particle vertical isolation plate (7) is closed, and one end thereof is in communication with two adjacent cavities through pores; and the pollution gas suction opening (3) and the clean gas exhaust opening (11) are respectively arranged on the first and last two cavities.
