Abstract
A device for separating a gas from a flow of the gas and particulate matter. The device has a chamber defined by a receiving surface. The device has a gas inlet conduit and a gas outlet conduit. The gas inlet conduit is positioned to deliver the flow of the gas and the particulate matter to the chamber. The gas outlet conduit is positioned to exhaust the flow of the gas from the chamber. The device includes a stationary impeller positioned within the chamber and having an upstream surface and a downstream surface. The impeller is configured to deflect the flow of the particulate matter and the gas to a radially outward flow of the particulate matter and the gas in a direction toward the receiving surface of the chamber. The device includes a gas exhaust port positioned in the gas outlet conduit and downstream of the gas inlet conduit and the impeller.
