About Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Technology
Diesel engines are known for their power and fuel efficiency, but they also produce harmful particulate matter (PM) in the form of soot. Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) technology plays a crucial role in reducing these emissions. A DPF is a ceramic-based filter that captures and stores soot particles from the exhaust system, preventing them from being released into the atmosphere.
To maintain performance, the filter undergoes a process called regeneration, where the accumulated soot is burned off at high temperatures. This keeps the DPF functional, ensuring emissions stay within acceptable limits and prolonging the life of the filter. Whether through passive (natural) or active (engine-triggered) regeneration, DPF technology ensures that diesel engines can meet today’s stringent environmental regulations while maintaining efficient performance.
