Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) made of cordierite are generally used for diesel engine aftertreatment systems in both on-road and commercial off-highway vehicles to meet today’s worldwide emission regulations. PM/PN and NOx emission regulations will become more stringent worldwide, as represented by CARB2027 and Euro7. Technologies that can meet these strict regulations are required. As a result, aftertreatment systems have become more complex with limited space. Recently, off-highway OEMs have been interested in downsizing the aftertreatment system using concepts such as DOConFilter in an effort to reduce the size of the exhaust system. DOConFilter can effectively replace DOC + CSF or DOC + bare DPF systems with a single zone coated particulate filter. DOConFilter systems have an increased amount of coating compared to CSF as higher-filtration filters will become the norm. An undesirable increase in pressure drop is expected by adopting this new technology.
