Abstract of the Disclosure A gas-contaminant separator for separating gas-contaminant mixtures created by an internal combustion engine into gas and contaminants includes inlet ports for inlet of the mixtures at the bottom of each leg of an inverted V-shaped housing and an outlet port at the top vertex for exhaust of the gas. The total Cross-sectional area of the inlet ports provide inlet mixture flow velocities below two meters per second. In the separator, first baffles are provided proximate the inlet ports to direct the mixtures towards and into a first contact with each other. Second baffles, disposed above the volume where the mixtures first contact cooperate with the housing to define a primary sedimentary precipitation zone and cause first retroversions of the mixtures towards and across the tops of the first baffles with the bulk of the contaminants being centrifugally precipitated by the first retroversions into the primary sedimentary precipitation zone for sedimentary precipitation to the bottoms of the housing. The sides of the housing cooperate with third baffles to cause second retro- versions of primarily gas mixtures across the tops of the second baffles and into a second contact with each other. Fourth baffles, disposed above the volume where the mixtures come into the second contact, cooperating with the housing, define a secondary precipi- tation zone and cause third retroversions of the mixtures towards and across the tops of the third baffles with the remaining contami- nants being centrifugally precipitated by the third retroversions into the secondary sedimentary precipitation zone for sedimentary precipitation on to the second baffles. The sides of the housing cooperate with the fourth baffles to cause fourth retroversions of the gases towards and out of the outlet.
