It comprises a penstock guiding high-temperature smoke from the feed box, interacting with water tubes for filtration before release. The system incorporates a water tube for heat absorption, directed from an upper source to a hot water reservoir via a gate valve for effective heat utilization. A bottom-end hot water reservoir, controlled by a gate valve, collects heated water from a spirally placed tube inside the penstock, the heat is transferred from the penstock to the water tube that heats the water inside the tube. The framework, designed for stability and durability, strategically positions frames to support key components. A top-end filter purifies air or smoke before release, minimizing environmental impact. The described examples illustrate various embodiments, with flexibility for modifications while retaining the essence of the invention."
