Abstract
Methods and systems to provide compressed air to one or more air consumers external to the engine via exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine are presented. In one example, the exhaust gas may be routed to drive an air turbine of an air compression system. The air compressed at the compression system may be stored in a tank and/or provided to the one or more air consumers.
