     BACKGROUND 
     1. Field 
     The example embodiments in general are directed to an emission purifying system and to a device for slowing global warming in the field of pit burners and elevated burners in the oil industry, including incinerators, open air burnings and other industries where suspended polluting particles are produced. 
     2. Related Art 
     Global warming is a matter of serious concern due to its potential effects on human health, economy and environment. Global warming has been associated with effects like the decrease of snow precipitation in some places, the rise in sea level and recent changes in the climate. These environmental changes can affect human activities and ecosystems. Some species can be forced to emigrate to avoid extinction by changing climate conditions. 
     Global warming can result in a rise of sea level because the water in the oceans expands as it is warmed. Additionally, the melting of the ice shelf and glaciers contributes to increasing the volume of the water in seas. 
     Climate has always been variable. The issue with climate in the last century is that climate change has been exacerbated in an anomalous way to such extent that life on earth is now being affected. In the search for causes of this exacerbation, scientists have found that there is a direct relation between global warming or climate change and an increase in the emissions of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. These greenhouse gases are believed to primarily originate from industrial societies. 
     Today, global warming and its direct effect on climate change are phenomena of worldwide concern, particularly among scientists, who spend most of their time and effort studying and learning ways to control greenhouse gas release. Scientists claim that this phenomenon threatens the future of the human race. Many scientists agree that increasing greenhouse gas concentration in the atmosphere results in alterations in the global climate. They also agree that the emission of greenhouse gases has been more intense since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. It has to be mentioned that all industries emit carbon monoxide, sulfur oxides and all kinds of pollutants to the atmosphere which degrade the quality of the air. In particular, pit burners and elevated open sky burners operated by the world oil industry are most likely the primary violators, as set forth below. 
     Each burner emits not only pollutant particles, but also raw heat at temperatures ranging from 1200° C. to 1800° C. This constant, extreme and permanent heat in the atmosphere imparts extreme power into air streams, where storms, rains, tornados, snow storms, cyclones and heat waves are formed. This insertion initiates a domino effect which affects the planet and ecosystems in a chain. 
     On the other hand, greenhouse gases are expanding quickly in the atmosphere because the world burns vast quantities of fossil fuels and destroys forests and prairies which could absorb carbon dioxide and help maintain the equilibrium of the temperature. In view of this, the international scientific community has alerted the public that if the world development, the demographic growth and the energetic consumption based on fossil fuels continues growth at its current pace, by the year 2050 the concentration of carbon dioxide will have doubled with respect to rates prior to the Industrial Revolution. 
     This could bring about dire consequences for life on the planet, and could even reach the point when it would be impossible to live because of lack of oxygen of bad air quality. Every living, breathing organism would be the first to feel the impact of the latter. It is possible that there are no regions on Earth which will not become adversely affected by this enormous problem. 
     Numerous attempts by industry and governments have been made to reduce emissions, such as through regulation or technological advances in order to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions and/or pollutant suspended particles exhausted from motor cars and internal combustion engines. However, less effort has been directed on industrial fumes. 
     One conventional system includes an anti-pollution chamber that consists of a structure which supports a hollow horizontal conic body provided with nozzles to feed in previously filtered water, recycling it to a powdering system. This system does not consider a combination of two conical structures, the use of a screen, or an additional driver to prevent counter-pressure. Additionally, this conventional system does not employ a heat retrieval system to take advantage of the combustion gases to transform the heat in reusable energy. 
     Another conventional system is directed to a vertical conical emissions purifying device. The device includes nozzles to spread in water and has optional screening walls. This conventional device is conformed only by a vertical structure and does not consider heat retrieval. The device only takes into consideration the treatment of gases, but again does not consider the retrieval and reuse of combustion gases. 
     A further conventional system is directed to an exhaust gases treatment system attached to combustion chambers, with an input to a horizontal depurator which in turn is connected to the exit of the combustion chambers. This conventional exhaust system includes water nozzles, ventilation to displace the air, a filter and a storage tank as well as a cooler before the reused water recirculation. However, this system also does not contemplate recovering and reusing the heat of combustion gases. 
     Yet another conventional system is directed to a wet gas purifier that envisions a horizontal separator, water sprinkler systems, recirculation and storage tank, and two separating walls which can be made of a gas permeating material acting as screens. The conventional wet gas purifier, like the other conventional pollutant removal systems, is silent as to the recovery and reutilization of the combustion heat. 
     Although a fundamental of each of these conventional pollutant removal systems is the cleansing of combustion gases using a variety of systems, none utilize a heat retrieval system to take advantage of the combustion gases to transform the heat in reusable energy. These conventional systems therefore cannot address or solve the problem of gas cleansing. 
     SUMMARY 
     An example embodiment is directed to an emissions purifying system. The system includes a vertical conical section having a body with a wider conical base and tapering into a narrower conical top, with a plurality of diffuser discs fitted in spaced relation around an external surface of the vertical conical section. The diffuser discs support cooling piping for transferring heat from combustion gases thereto. The system includes a horizontal conical section connected to the vertical conical section, the horizontal conical section having a body with a first wider conical end and a narrower second conical end, the horizontal conical section including a chimney, an elevated tank supplied with water and supported by a base within the vertical conical section, and a burner situated under the elevated tank. Combustion gases ascending over the vertical conical section to be driven up to the horizontal conical section pass over the elevated tank and release heat to the tank. The retrieved heat is utilized to generate steam in the elevated tank to be transformed into work. The diffuser discs serve as a support for the cooling piping to diminish the temperature of the combustion gases. A narrowest end of the horizontal conical section is situated in a lower position with respect to the rest of the body and includes piping for water collection in a lowest end of the horizontal conical section. The chimney is oriented upwards near the narrowest end through which cleansed combustion gases are expelled. 
     Another example embodiment is directed to a device for slowing global warming. The device includes a vertical cone having a body with a wider conical base and tapering into a narrower conical top, the body supporting cooling piping on an external surface thereon for transferring heat from combustion gases thereto. The device includes a horizontal conical section attached above the vertical conical section, the horizontal conical section having a body with a first wider conical end and a narrower second conical end, the horizontal conical section including a chimney, an elevated tank supplied with water within the vertical conical section, and a burner situated under the elevated tank. Combustion gases ascending over the vertical conical section to be driven up to the horizontal conical section pass over the elevated tank and release heat to the tank. A narrowest end of the horizontal conical section includes piping for water collection. The chimney is oriented upwards near the narrowest end through which cleansed combustion gases are expelled. 
     Another example embodiment is directed to an emissions purifying system. The system includes a vertical cone having a body with a wider conical base and tapering into a narrower conical top, the body supporting a plurality of diffuser discs on an external surface thereof, a cooling coil supported by the diffuser discs for transferring heat from combustion gases thereto, a horizontal conical section attached above the vertical conical section, the horizontal conical section having a body with a first wider conical end and a narrower second conical end, the horizontal conical section including a plurality of circular screens fitted in different sections therein, a plurality of sprinklers in spaced relation thereon, and a chimney, an elevated tank supplied with water within the vertical conical section, and a burner situated under the elevated tank. Combustion gases ascending over the vertical conical section to be driven up to the horizontal conical section pass over the elevated tank and release heat to the tank. The combustion gases are cooled inside the vertical conical section by direct contact with the elevated tank and externally by the cooling coil. The vertical conical section is connected to the horizontal conical section near the wider conical base via an elbow that drives the cooled combustion gases to the narrower end and increases the drop of pressure of the combustion gases. The air extractors move the cooled combustion gases to the narrower end for cleansing and cooling by the screens and sprinklers, precipitating any suspended particles into a stream of water. A narrowest end of the horizontal conical section includes piping for water collection, and the chimney is oriented upwards near the narrowest end through which cleansed combustion gases are expelled.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The example embodiments to be heretofore described were developed with a purpose of decelerating the world climate change caused by global warming; originated by the emission to the atmosphere of polluting gases. The example system and device may contribute to the reduction of acid rain, temperature of emissions, as well as noise produced by the pressure of the fuel in the burners. One result or output of the example system and/or device is steam, which produces thermal and kinetic energy for a variety of uses. As will be shown in more detail hereafter, the example system and device also concentrates suspended particles and settles these particles in a deposit for diverse applications. 
     Thus, in an effort to mitigate this enormous world problem, the example system and/or device described hereafter reverts some of the negative effects caused by global warming because the system/device produces clean energy when applied to sectors where there are emissions of pollutant suspended particles given off by combustion. The example system/device is efficient and could prove to be beneficial by preventing ecosystems (including the human race) from downstream damage to some extent due to the domino effect mentioned above. 
     Accordingly, the example embodiments shall describe in further detail a stationary, air portable system configured to capture and collect pollutant suspended particles, prevent clean air from getting polluted as well as preventing fire, fumes and radiated heat from reaching the atmosphere, thus potentially decelerating global warming. The same example system and/or device may potentially suppress combustion odors and reduce acid rain. Moreover, the example system and/or device utilizes thermal energy in the form of steam to transform the heat into kinetic energy, thus reducing the temperature of emissions and noise generated by the pressure of fuel in the burners.

FIGS. 30-32  should be referenced for the following discussion regarding the general operation of the system and/or device according to the example embodiments herein. 
     To eliminate smoke and suspended particles, the vertical cone  23  encloses and conducts the particles to the horizontal cone  37 . There, the smoke and/or particulate are driven through the various screens  39  attached to the horizontal cone  37  in spaced relation thereof. At the same time, an artificial turbulence is produced by means of the water sprinklers  30  and air impellers (extractors)  49 . The suspended particles are driven to the storage tank  51  and simultaneously, the water is sent to the sprinklers  30  in a cyclic way. 
     The heat of the flame and the temperature of the combustion gases is reduced when it is used to heat the elevated tank  10 , which is located inside the vertical cone  23  held by a support base  8 . The elevated tank  10  is full at 65% of its capacity, generating steam which can be used externally for a variety of purposes and benefits. At the same time, water is driven through the coil  26  which is on the outside of the vertical cone  23  which is supplied by the hydro pneumatic tank  62 , which in turn is supplied by the suspended particles storage tank  51 . The coil  26  is supported by the heat diffuser discs  25 . Also, the artificial turbulence in the horizontal cone  37  lowers the temperature of the emissions. 
     Meanwhile, the screen  39  retains the suspended particles and is lubricated by the sprinklers  30 . The vertical cone  23  and the horizontal cone  37  help to reduce the noise of the gas emanations that comes out of the burner nozzle (not shown) due to the circulation of the noise from the wide part of the cone to the narrow part of each cone. The ignition sphere  9  is kept burning for security reasons, in case the burner is turned off accidentally. 
     The circular channel  2  with drain pipe  4  located on the base of the vertical cone  23  is used to collect dripping during maintenance service. The tubular ring with the external input from the vertical cone  23  is used to give maintenance service and to clean the vertical cone  23 . The semicircular retainer  42  works as security element, preventing leakages from the horizontal cone  37 . 
     The hydro pneumatic tank  62 , with the flow distributor  27 , has the function of recycling the air and water for the entire system in a cyclic process. The heat collector cylinder  65  with an integrated partition system is an optional device that has the function of collecting the heat generated by the flame to turn it into steam, to be transformed into power by means of an air compressor. The elevated tank  10  has the function of producing high pressure steam which can be utilized as kinetic energy to move turbines, engines and produce electricity, or subject the steam to a distillation process to produce distilled water, or even to a de-ionizer to produce de-ionized, distilled water. 
     Accordingly, the example system and/or device described herein may be embodied as portable equipment installable onto outdoor burners as well as in chimneys of any industry. The example system has the purpose of cleansing the emissions of gases and transforming the thermal energy into useful kinetic energy. 
     In an example, the system can be placed by means of its base  1  on the top of an outdoor burner or industrial chimney in such a way that the burner&#39;s flame or industrial chimney remains in the center of the system or device. The system or device has an ignition sphere  9  that is kept burning all the time for security reasons. 
     Combustion gases ascend through a vertical cone  23  to pass over the outside of an elevated tank  10  which contains water and is locked. This elevated tank  10  is configured to generate steam utilizing the heat of the combustion gases, and the direct heat of the flame in the case of the burners. The tank  10  is formed with a bottle-shaped body, being wider at the bottom and narrower at the upper end thereof. The tank  10  has a convex base with bottleneck  11  at top end to improve the distribution of the heat around the tank body. The tank  10  bottom is connected to a pipe  12  which has a discharge valve  13  on one end thereof that allows drainage of the elevated tank  10  for maintenance and/or service. 
     The upper part of the mouth has an external thread to receive a lid  16  which has an internal thread so that it can permit a hermetic lock. Lid structure  14  includes a filling system made formed by a pipe  19  with a shutoff valve  18 , a water volume meter  17 , a hermetic closure valve  15 , the lid itself  16 , and an exit for the steam which includes a pipe  20  fitted with a valve  22  and a manometer  21 . Here, the steam coming out of the pipe  20  is used in an electric generator or sent to a heat exchanger (i.e., heat collector cylinder  65 ). 
     The combustion gases are cooled inside the vertical cone  23  by direct contact with the elevated tank  10  and outside by means of the ascending cooling coil  26 , which is supported by diffuser discs  25  which supply in an extreme part of the sprinklers  30  of the horizontal cone  37 . Additionally, on the inside of the vertical cone  23 , the combustion gases pass through a circular sprinkler  24 . The supply elbow  40  at the upper end of the vertical cone  23  feeds the combustions gases to the second section, taking the gases to the narrow end of the horizontal cone  37 . This elbow  40  is connected to an orifice  34  of the horizontal cone  37 . The supply elbow  40  that feeds the horizontal cone  37 , besides driving the gases to the narrow end, also increases the drop of pressure of the combustion gases. 
     The combustion gases expand suddenly when they enter the horizontal cone  37 . Thus, the gases lose pressure due to this free expansion; the gases are directed to the narrow part of the cone  37  by means of air extractors  49  connected in an inverted way, or blowers which are connected to a lid  44  of the horizontal cone  37 . These air extractors  49  move the gases to the narrow end for cleansing and cooling by the sprinklers  30  fitted along the horizontal cone  37 , screens  39  and the circular sprinkler  35 , precipitating the suspended particles into a stream of water. This water flows via gravity towards the narrow part of the horizontal cone  37  because the lowest part of the horizontal cone  37  corresponds to the narrowest end, where there is an elbow  41  which is connected to a pipeline that transports the mixture of liquid and particles to a storage tank  51 . Near the narrow end of the of the horizontal end and after the circular sprinkler  35 , there is a chimney  36  or exhaust pipe for the clean gases which contains a screen  46 , a filter  47 , and optionally an air extractor  49  which extracts the suspended particles which could leak to send them to the storage tank  51  by means of connector  53 . 
     Additionally, as a precaution measure, the horizontal cone  37  has an emergency chimney or exhaust  31  which comes into play when the pressure inside the cone  37  increases beyond some desired set point. This chimney or exhaust can be operated manually by means of a whip mechanism  33 . 
     The example system is further configured with a fluid distribution network which supplies the cooling coil  26  and a sprinklers section (sprinkler  24  for example) by means of a hydro pneumatic tank  62 . Additionally, a submersible pump  60  sends water to another sprinklers section (sprinklers  30 ,  35 ) Both the pump  60  and tank  62  take the water from the storage tank  51 , keeping the cycle closed and preventing the waste of water. 
     The example system and device may provide several benefits, including but not limited to one or more of: reduction in temperature of emanations and heat radiated by the flame; diminish the intensity of sound produced by the burning flame; shutting off the heat generated by the flame and transforms heat into kinetic energy to be utilized for different purposes for various uses as move engines, power generators, driers and dehydration; eliminate the characteristic odors of emanations; utilizing captured particles industrially, as they are stored as they are stored as liquid and solid waste which can be used to make toner and ink, and in the construction industry, to make bricks, asphalt emulsions as well as other uses the concentrated particles can have; promote ease of assembly and accommodation to size and scale; promote ease of transport, mobility and flexibility in its operation. 
     Moreover, the example system and device may capture and collect pollutant suspended particles, thus preventing clean air from getting polluted, further suppressing outdoor fires and heat radiated into the atmosphere caused by combustion fires, possibly decelerating global warming, while simultaneously suppressing the odors of combustion and additive pollution. The example technology herein may reduce and/or help to eliminate or prevent acid rain, and allow for the utilization of the thermal energy in the form of steam and kinetic energy and reduced the temperature of combustion. 
     The example embodiments being thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as departure from the spirit and scope of the example embodiments, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the following claims.
