Particulate and co2 reduction system for commercial/residential devices that generate thermal energy

Abstract

This describes the novel use of a naturally occurring material known as volcanic rock, as a particulate and CO 2 reduction system. The material is used within the combustion chamber of devices that utilize solid fuel for energy generation.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . The novel exploitation of volcanic rock material manufactured into (a) customizable structures in a variety of sizes and shapes; for example, tiles, slabs, or spheres and (b) with or without a multiplicity of conduits to channel emissions within high temperature environments. 
     
     
         2 . The novel placement of volcanic rock in any form within the combustion chamber of solid fuel combustion devices such as boilers, incinerators, and residential or commercial wood heating apparatuses. The volcanic rock material is placed within the combustion chamber (a) above the fire, or (b) in any manner so as to restrict the flow of gases and particulates from the combustion chamber to the exhaust port of the device.
