Abstract
A process and equipment for removing toxic and malodorous gases from the fresh air for vehicle cabins by catalytic oxidation, the process being based on passing the fresh air over a heating-system heat exchanger, the heat-emitting surfaces of which form the support for an oxidation catalyst. The heat exchanger used is the heating-system heat exchanger which is present in virtually all motor vehicles. In contrast to known solutions for purifying the fresh air, for example by means of activated carbon, the process is maintenance-free and does not require any additional constructional volume.
