Objective
Significant reductions in CO2 emissions can be achieved through increased use of the modern highly efficient Diesel engine, provided that engine manufacturers meet increasingly tightened particulate/NOx emissions legislation in Europe. In order to achieve proposed emission levels (Euro4 and beyond) for particulates, the applications of diesel particulate filter systems (DPF) will be necessary. The main barriers to a wide/reliable use of DPFs consist in the durability of filters, back-pressures and related fuel penalty and the present regeneration temperature.
The aim of this project is to develop, procure and test the requisite component technology in order to achieve:
(a) Euro4 and beyond particulate and NOx emission limits for passenger cars;
(b) DPF regeneration on the complete engine maps combining passive regeneration and the simplest available engine/active measures;
(c) simple system maintenance;
(d) low pressure drop (< 150mbar) and low fuel penalty (>2%).
