CATALYTIC DIESEL PARTICULATE CONTROL SYSTEM DESIGN AND OPERATION

Catalytic trap oxidizers developed for use in control of particulate emissions from diesel engines have been advanced to the vehicle installation stage. This paper discusses the development of complete vehicle systems. Methods and techniques of assisted regeneration are presented along with control system concepts. Installation of the trap unit as part of an integrated vehicle exhaust system is described, along with designs and results from various prototype builds.
