Abstract
In recent years, the air pollution problems and the influence to human which is caused by NOx and PM from diesel engine exhaust gas become severe social problems. More effective post-processing technology is desired on PM, such as carbon soots. Although the use of DPF is now a leading technology for PM removal, the problem exists on the soot incineration or regeneration at low temperature. In the present study, a regeneration of DPF was investigated using the low temperature atmospheric pressure nonequilibrium plasma. As the result this time, the regeneration of DPF could be confirmed, and the regeneration temperature could be reduced from 600℃ to 300℃.
