ABSTRACT:
Means to divert engine exhaust gases around a catalytic converter when the xhaust gases are too cool to support catalytic combustion or treatment of objectionable pollutants such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and unburned hydrocarbons. The diverted gases are delivered to the engine's combustion air intake system for recycle in the engine. At normal operating temperatures (after initial warm-up) the diverter line is closed so that all of the exhaust gases are directed through the catalytic converter.
