ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for handling exhaust gases, such as diesel exhaust, which cools the exhaust gases as the gases exit a diesel engine, and then filters such gases to remove particulate material. A housing has an inlet pipe with perforations and a filling of a liquid through which gas bubbles as it exits the perforations in the inlet pipe. The gas bubbling through the liquid cools the gases. In order to maintain the bubbles at a desired size, a perforated or porous layer of material is provided in the liquid so that gas moves through the perforated layer before it exits the liquid. Preferably the gas exiting the liquid is then passed through a filter which is maintained in a wet condition by mist carried by the gases that is formed as the gases burst through the surface of the liquid. The fibers of the filter are maintained wetted so that particles of material do not adhere to the fibers and can be flushed therefrom.
