Exhaust gas cleaning system and method for cleaning exhaust gas and use of exhaust gas cleaning system

Abstract

An exhaust gas cleaning system includes a particle filter device comprising a casing, plural hollow ceramic filter rods arranged at least partly inside a gas passage of the casing, and a gas inlet and gas outlet. The particle filter device guides exhaust gas from the gas inlet, through the gas passage and to the gas outlet. The particle filter device further comprises a perforated plate extending at least partly along the filter rods and partly blocking an exhaust gas flow path from the gas inlet to the gas passage. The perforated plate defines openings allowing exhaust gas to flow into the gas passage. The filter rods are gas permeable to allow exhaust gas to penetrate, during filtration, a respective wall of the filter rods and flow into the filter rods. A respective open upper end of the filter rods communicates with the gas outlet so exhaust gas leaves the casing.
