Abstract: The anti-pollution system, which removes exhaust gas pollutants, effectively eliminates carbon monoxide, unburnt hydrocarbons, odors and organic and inorganic particulates from the exhaust gases of internal combustion engines or other sources of combustion products or pollution, is provided. The radiant monolith-catalytic converter stack continuously incinerates and eliminates the undesirable and harmful pollution from the exhaust stream. An auxiliary burner, located upstream of the radiant monolith stack, provides additional heat as required to maintain the monolith stack at a temperature to provide radiant heat energy to incinerate soot particles and unburnt hydrocarbons in the exhaust gas stream. The hot exhaust gases flow through a heat exchanger to recover heat from the exiting hot exhaust gases, to preheat the incoming exhaust gas stream while simultaneously cooling the outgoing cleaned exhaust gas stream.

Abstract: A monolithic mixer which is impedance matched to a fundamental waveguide, utilizes a slot coupler and a coplanar transmission line to apply an RF and local oscillator signal to a Schotty-barrier diode. The dielectric substrate is utilized to create a dielectric surface wave resonance which is utilized by centering a slot coupler with respect thereto, to provide a reactive image termination at the upper sideband and thereby enhance single and double sideband mixer operation. The IF signal which is available at the output of the Schottky-barrier diode is filtered by means of an RF bypass capacitor that is located on the dielectric substrate surface.
