The invention concerns a device for depolluting combustion gases set along the exhaust line of the gases. The device has a gas cooling chamber (9, 10) lowering the gas temperature to near 0 degrees Celsius. In one particular embodiment of the invention, the energy of the exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine is used for providing the cold required for the depollution process.
