DPF Regeneration

 Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF)–also called soot traps or particulate traps- are more common on the roads today due to ongoing changes in emissions regulations. This relatively new way to reduce vehicle pollution has proven to be very successful in providing major reductions to diesel exhaust emissions, especially in reducing black smoke. However, as with any new technology, sometimes there can be some limitations and associated issues. More and more failures and concerns have been reported from drivers regarding the DPF malfunction light illuminated on the vehicle dashboard indicating a filter blockage, not knowing what it is or what to do about it - Diesel particulate filter cleaning system.

If we talk about the functioning of this filter, then the DPF traps harmful diesel particles that must be adequately cleaned to maintain the vehicle's performance. The DPF cleaning is called "DPF Regeneration," which must be washed regularly using active, passive or forced regeneration. This strategy is required for all diesel vehicles that are operating under urban city conditions. In that case, the fluctuation of the exhaust temperature cannot support the passive DPF regeneration mode and an active DPF regeneration is required. The target is to generate high temperatures in the DPF to burn the soot during the cleaning process of soot burn-off - Diesel Particulate Filters in Dallas.

All the processes use the engine to generate heat in the exhaust pipe to burn the soot according to the vehicle operation and profile. This active DPF regeneration mode is included in the vehicle from its production step and is fully automatic and transparent for the driver. The active DPF regeneration is usually supported by a catalyst that can be introduced directly into the diesel fuel. This DPF regeneration strategy is usually dedicated to heavy long haulers trucks and buses for goods and people transportations over long distances and high speed. In that case, the DPF system is located in the hotter part of the exhaust pipe and does not need frequent soot burn-off as the soot is continuously burned during the vehicle operation at high speeds and long distances.
