Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for mixing ambient air and a hazardous gas with the gas being admitted to the apparatus via an inlet conduit. A rake disposed for travel within said conduit periodically dislodges deposits from the conduit interior with rake travel being along conduit affixed guides. Openings defined by the rake permit a gas flow at all times. Projections on a conduit end wall dislodge deposits from disc edges defining openings. A rake actuator is in communication with a solenoid valve in circuit with a timer and controller for automatic operation of the actuator.

Abstract: A housing receives ambient air through an inlet located so as to direct the airflow against blades of a rotor which disperses the airflow. A gas inlet conduit discharges hazardous gas into a chamber of the housing. The dispersed airflow acts on the hazardous gas entering the chamber to disperse and mix with the gas. The mixed air and hazardous gas flow impinges against a wall surface of the housing prior to discharge from the housing via an outlet conduit. A source such as the intake side of a blower induces the flow of air and hazardous gas through the housing and the outlet conduit. The rotor is located near an air inlet of the housing for rotor operation by airflow drawn into the housing. A flow sensor and damper control system are provided. Baffle assemblies are removably installed in the housing and include apertured plates which collect particles deposited by the mixed air and gas flow. Bypasses are provided to ensure an uninterrupted mixed air and gas flow past the baffle plates.
