The current soot oxidation catalyst scenario has been reviewed, the main factors that affect
the activity of powder catalysts have been highlighted and kinetic soot oxidation models …

In 2011, the European Commission introduced a limit for nonvolatile particle number (PN)
emissions> 23 nm from light-duty (LD) vehicles and the stated intent is to implement similar …

Biomorphic SiC is a biotemplated material fabricated by Si melt-infiltration of carbon
preforms from wood pyrolysis. In this work, porous bioSiC ceramics from five different wood …

Environmental chamber (" smog chamber") experiments were conducted to investigate
secondary organic aerosol (SOA) production from dilute emissions from two medium-duty …

Periodic regeneration is required to clean the diesel particulate filter (DPF) of heavy-duty
diesel vehicle. In this study we analyze real-time particulate matter (PM) mass, particle …

As countries around the world pay more attention to environmental protection, the
corresponding emission regulations have become more stringent. Exhaust pollutants cause …

The state-of-the-art multiscale modeling of gasoline particulate filter (GPF) including channel
scale, wall scale, and pore scale is described. The microstructures of two GPFs were …

The increasingly stringent emission regulations will mandate the retrofit of after-treatment
devices for in-use diesel vehicles, in order to reduce their substantial particulate matter and …

Diesel engines have gradually become one of the main forces in the human transportation
industry because of their high efficiency, good durability, and stable operation. However …

Soot nanoparticles produced by engines constitute a threat to human health. For the
analytical chemist, soot is a hard nut to crack as the released particles undergo rapid …
