STAXcraft
20220411029 · 2022-12-29 · ·

A novel emissions control watercraft (STAXcraft) solving a long-felt but unsolved need regarding disadvantages associated with prior-art emissions servicing watercraft, the disadvantages selected from the group, but not limited to, the use of tugboats, securing or mooring servicing watercraft to a serviced vessel, additional expenses and time-delays and inefficiencies of land-based approaches, increased toxic emissions, increased greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions, danger from falling cargo, tanker safety, alongside mooring in narrow channels preventing other OGV's to pass safely, and cargo tank emissions.

Vehicle Exhaust Evacuation System
20230031660 · 2023-02-02 ·

A vehicle exhaust evacuation system includes an adapter secured to an end of a vehicle tailpipe and a nozzle assembly secured to the end of a flexible hose for carrying vehicle exhaust outside of a building. The nozzle assembly has an aluminum cartridge removably secured in a rubber boot. Magnet assemblies are secured to the aluminum cartridge. Openings in the adapter allow ambient air to flow over the magnet assemblies to lengthen the life of the magnets.

MODULAR EXHAUST AFTERTREATMENT SUBSYSTEM

A modular exhaust subsystem for purifying an exhaust gas feedstream of a compression-ignition internal combustion engine upstream of a base exhaust aftertreatment system includes a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst, and a first exhaust gas sensor and a first temperature sensor that are arranged to monitor the SCR catalyst. A reductant delivery system is arranged to inject a reductant upstream of the SCR catalyst. A controller is in communication with an engine-out exhaust gas sensor, a second exhaust gas sensor and a second temperature sensor that are arranged to monitor the base exhaust aftertreatment system. The controller controls the reductant delivery system to inject the reductant into the exhaust gas feedstream upstream of the SCR catalyst based upon inputs from the first and second exhaust gas sensors, the engine-out exhaust gas sensor, and the first and second temperature sensors.

Muffler filter

A muffler filter includes a housing including an aperture, a cartridge holder, at least one activated filter, an attachable lock associated with the activated filter, and a plurality of clamps. The muffler filter is configured to be securely affixed to a muffler of a vehicle allowing the activated filter to sieve noxious fumes from emissions from the muffler.

Exhaust capture devices and methods
11635012 · 2023-04-25 · ·

A system of controlling the capture of emissions from an exhaust emitter includes a housing including an inlet, a first outlet, and a second outlet; an adapter configured to attach to the exhaust emitter and the inlet of the housing; an attachment assembly coupled to the exhaust emitter, the attachment assembly including at least one leg pivotably coupled to the adapter; at least one valve coupled to the housing; and a control unit capable of communicating with the at least one valve to control the emission of exhaust through the device.

Dual function manifold assembly incorporating a detachable catalytic converter
11473483 · 2022-10-18 · ·

A replacement kit for use with a motor vehicle that was originally equipped with an exhaust system including an exhaust manifold and a catalytic converter welded thereto. The replacement kit includes a replacement catalytic converter arranged for use during use of the motor vehicle on public roads. Rather than welding, the replacement catalytic converter attaches to the exhaust manifold using a clamp to form a gas-tight seal. The clamp is arranged to move from the closed position to an open position to enable disengagement of the replacement catalytic converter from the exhaust manifold and substitution of a bypass pipe in place of the replacement catalytic converter to increase performance characteristics of the vehicle during off-road use.

Method and apparatus for removal of particulate material from refinery processes and power generation system
09745878 · 2017-08-29 · ·

Apparatus and methods are provided whereby a component can be cleaned while the furnace is operational. Additionally, particulates that have accumulated on the component can be collected and retained. The apparatus may include a portable frame, a tubular lance supported by the frame and having a nozzle at a distal end thereof, and a suction generator operatively connected to a proximal end of the lance to generate a suction at the nozzle. Manipulation of the lance to move the nozzle across a component allows accumulated particulates to be removed therefrom through the lance.
