Exhibit description
Immediately after its generation, gas is untreated and dangerous – it is hot, smelling of smoking tar and fetid ammonia. The gas cools down and cleans itself in a cooler.
It is a very simple, yet effective device. It consists of two rollers, with air flowing between them. This air cools the gas flowing through the centre, which removes almost half of its toxic pollutants.
