Method for reducing particulated carbon from the exhaust gas stream of an internal combustion engine which includes a combustion supporting ingredient. The particles are initially retained on a gas pervious bed. The latter is periodically treated by passing therethrough a gaseous mixture comprising a major portion of the particle-carrying gas, into which a minor portion of said gas, which has been treated to substantially deplete it of said particles and said combustion supporting ingredients, has been mixed.
