Abstract

Water is recovered and purified from exhaust gases of internal combustion engines which produce water vapor when a hydrocarbon fuel is burned. The present invention passes the engine exhaust through a particulate filter then a catalytic reactor to remove the impurities and then through a precooler and a condenser so as to extract the water therein. The water is then passed through a polishing column and recovered for use in the vehicle.
