Systems and apparatuses include a controller including at least one processor coupled to a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to: receive data indicative of at least one of a current route or of a current performance of a vehicle; correlate at least one of the current route or the current performance to a control strategy; and determine at least one of a timing or a duration of an active regeneration event for an aftertreatment system based on the correlated control strategy.

Systems and methods for management of exhaust aftertreatment systems using predictive analytics

A computer system is structured to determine a density of particulate matter in a diesel particulate filter (DPF) sample. The computer system includes a processing circuit having a processor and a memory. The processing circuit is structured to generate a computed tomography (CT) scan-based image of the DPF sample; and, segment the CT scan-based image of the DPF sample into a plurality of regions. For at least one region from the plurality of regions, the processing circuit is structured to determine a density of a portion of the DPF sample corresponding to the at least one region of the CT scan-based image of the DPF sample and cause an electronic display of a user device to display the CT scan-based image including the at least one region and an indication of the density for the at least one region.

Systems and methods for evaluating part density, contamination and defects using computed tomography scanning

An exhaust aftertreatment system for increasing fractional efficiency of diesel or gasoline particulate filters includes a particulate filter that includes a housing and a filter substrate positioned in the housing. The filter substrate is pre-conditioned with an aqueous solution or suspension configured to decompose or evaporate in response to exposure to heat so as to precondition the filter substrate.

Method and apparatus to enhance fractional efficiency of diesel and gasoline particulate filters

A filtration assembly for removing particulate matter from exhaust gas produced by an engine, including: a first filter; a second filter positioned downstream of the first filter; and a valve including: a first ring defining a plurality of first openings, and a second ring defining a plurality of second openings, the second ring abutting the first ring. The valve is moveable between a closed position in which the plurality of first openings are misaligned with the plurality of second openings to prevent a fluid from flowing through the plurality of first and second openings, and an open position in which the second ring is rotated relative to the first ring such that the plurality of first openings are aligned with the plurality of second openings allowing the fluid to flow therethrough. A first end of the valve is positioned at an outlet of the first filter, and a second end of the valve is positioned at an inlet of the second filter. In the closed position of the valve, substantially all of the exhaust gas flows through the second filter, and in the open position of the valve, at least a portion of the exhaust gas flows through the valve and bypasses the second filter.

Systems and methods for dynamic control of filtration efficiency and fuel economy

An aftertreatment system comprises a SCR system, a first filter, and a second filter disposed downstream of the first filter and a bypass conduit providing a flow path bypassing the second filter. A valve is operatively coupled to the bypass conduit and is moveable between a closed position in which the exhaust gas flows through the second filter, and an open position in which at least a portion of the exhaust gas flows through the bypass conduit. A controller is operatively coupled to the valve configured to adjust the valve based on a first filtration efficiency of the first filter to cause the exhaust gas expelled into the environment from the aftertreatment to have a particulate matter count meeting particulate matter emission standards.
