Abstract

An apparatus for reducing crankcase emissions generated by an engine is described. The apparatus generally includes a separator that removes particulate matter from the crankcase emissions and a treatment component that removes odor and gases from the crankcase emissions. The apparatus is configured where the treatment component is disposed downstream of the separator, the separator first removes particulate matter from the crankcase emissions and the treatment component then removes odor and certain gases from the crankcase emissions.
