A system for exhausting gas from a source constituting a machine or process which operates on a cyclical basis and generates exhaust gas at a relatively high volume of gas in a short period, at one or more points in its operational cycle. The system includes a first fan or blower which operates continuously and handles a flow volume which is at least equal to the average flow from the source but is lower than the high flow volume produced by the machine or process at intermittent times during its operational cycle. The exhaust from the source in excess of the average is fed into an accumulator at such times as the machine or process is emitting volumes higher than the volume of the constantly operated blower. The constantly operated blower continuously exhausts the accumulator. The energy demands and cost of the exhaust system are therefore substantially lower than a system which would be designed to continuously exhaust the process at the high volume required intermittently. The invention may be used with injection molding machines or the like. The accumulator might comprise an expandable chamber including a dropout for heavy particles or apparatus for processing the exhaust gases before they are passed to the atmosphere or filtering apparatus.
