Detroit Diesel's Chuck Blake offers an interesting perspective on diesel particulate filters. He says he owns them, even though every truck owner who has purchased a Detroit engine on every 2008 model ...
The particulate filter is pretty much mandatory in diesel cars these days. Its association with diesel-powered cars brought it the handle DPF, which stands for diesel particulate filter. Now, though, ...
Diesel particulate filters are one of the major additions to exhaust systems in recent years, and they are a blessing and a curse. Used since 2007 to meet EPA regulations, DPFs strip soot and ash from ...
Vehicles in the U.S. are set to release more than one septillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) exhaust emissions particles that could relatively easily be avoided with the use of diesel and gas ...
Virtually all carmakers use particulate filters in their diesel cars to meet the most stringent emissions standards. These filters trap particulate matter left over from the combustion process that ...
The diesel particulate filter (DPF) has continued to improve over its 15-year existence. So have other components of aftertreatment systems (ATS) that help send cleaner exhaust through the DPF.
Diesel particulate filters are becoming a standard for most light duty diesel applications designed for European EU5 and EU6 regulations. Oxide based filter materials are continuing to gain ...
Volkswagen has yet to get modifications to reduce the emissions of TDI diesel cars with illegal "defeat device" software approved by U.S. regulators. But while it continues to wrestle with that ...
A diesel particulate filter is a filter that captures and stores exhaust soot (some refer to them as soot traps) in order to reduce emissions from diesel cars. Renovating public transport has been put ...
Study by Graz University of Technology shows that exhaust particles account for less than ten per cent of fine dust emissions ...
Exhaust gases are no longer the most important emission factor from motor vehicles by far when it comes to particulate matter ...
