Abstract:
An internal combustion engine, comprising an engine part for providing a movement, said engine part having an outlet for discharging exhaust gasses from said engine part; and an exhaust gas system including an exhaust gas conduit having an inlet which is connected with said outlet of said internal combustion engine so as to receive discharged exhaust gasses from said internal combustion engine and an outlet which is open, and an additional internal combustion chamber which is directly connected with said outlet of said internal combustion engine and receives exhaust gasses from said internal combustion engine and also receives an air-oxygen mixture from outside without fuel for combustion of the exhaust gasses and introduces the air-oxygen mixture without fuel into said exhaust system so as to provide combustion of the exhaust gasses, said exhaust gas system including a plurality of additional vessels covered inside with ceramic tiles and a layer of titanium oxide and arranged so that a first one of said vessels is connected with said additional chamber and subsequent ones of said vessels are connected with one another so that the layer of titanium oxide absorbs impurities from exhaust gasses exiting said additional vessel; an air filter connected with an outlet of at least one of said vessels and coated from inside with ceramic tiles with a layer of titanium oxide so as to filter the exhaust gasses received in said air filter from said vessels from combustion products and to additionally absorb residues of exhaust gas impurities, said air filter having an outlet connected with said engine part.
