Abstract
A diesel engine particulate filter (DPF) comprising a case cylinder with a filter space formed by the inner retention cylinder and outer retention cylinder which traverse the radial symmetry of the case cylinder. In filter space, the low temperature exothermic catalyst granules group component of precious metals, such as platinum, coexist with a mixture of medium temperature exothermic catalyst carried by granules group filter of foaming stone grains made of base metals, such as nickel and cobalt. Exhaust flow travels from the inner space of the inner side retention cylinder to the filter space where particulate matter (PM) is trapped. PM burned by the medium temperature exothermic catalyst functions by the rise in exhaust temperature obtained from the low temperature exothermic catalyst where hydrocarbon (HC) is burned. As a result, a DPF () that burns PM even when the exhaust temperature is low can be realized, without using an electric heater.
