Abstract

The present invention is directed to a method of cleaning a diesel particulate filter. The method requires a step of contacting the diesel particulate filter with a cleaning composition containing one or more fatty acids or a derivative thereof. The one or more fatty acids or a derivative thereof may include a natural oil, such as a plant-based oil.

Resistive heater geometry and regeneration method for a diesel particulate filter

Patent Phelps, Amanda [Malibu, CA]; Kirby, Kevin W [Calabasas Hills, CA]; Gregoir, Daniel J [Thousand Oaks, CA]

One embodiment of the invention includes a diesel particulate filter comprising a first face and a second face; a bottom electrode layer formed over the first face of the diesel particulate filter; a middle resistive layer formed over a portion of the bottom electrode layer; and a top electrode layer formed over a portion of the middle resistive layer.

Electrically resistive coating for remediation (regeneration) of a diesel particulate filter and method

Patent Phelps, Amanda C [Malibu, CA]; Kirby, Kevin K [Calabasas Hills, CA]; Gregoire, Daniel J [Thousand Oaks, CA]

A resistively heated diesel particulate filter (DPF). The resistively heated DPF includes a DPF having an inlet surface and at least one resistive coating on the inlet surface. The at least one resistive coating is configured to substantially maintain its resistance in an operating range of the DPF. The at least one resistive coating has a first terminal and a second terminal for applying electrical power to resistively heat up the at least one resistive coating in order to increase the temperature of the DPF to a regeneration temperature. The at least one resistive coating includes metal and semiconductor constituents.

Generator powered electrically heated diesel particulate filter

Patent Gonze, Eugene V; Paratore, Jr., Michael J

A control circuit for a vehicle powertrain includes a switch that selectivity interrupts current flow between a first terminal and a second terminal. A first power source provides power to the first terminal and a second power source provides power to the second terminal and to a heater of a heated diesel particulate filter (DPF). The switch is opened during a DPF regeneration cycle to prevent the first power source from being loaded by the heater while the heater is energized.

Zone heated inlet ignited diesel particulate filter regeneration

Patent Gonze, Eugene V [Pinckney, MI]; Ament, Frank [Troy, MI]

An exhaust system that processes exhaust generated by an engine is provided. The system includes: a particulate filter (PF) that is disposed downstream of the engine and that filters particulates from the exhaust; and a grid that includes electrically resistive material that is segmented by non-conductive material into a plurality of zones and wherein the grid is applied to an exterior upstream surface of the PF.

Diesel particulate filter with zoned resistive heater

Patent Gonze, Eugene V [Pinckney, MI]

A diesel particulate filter assembly comprises a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and a heater assembly. The DPF filters a particulate from exhaust produced by an engine. The heater assembly has a first metallic layer that is applied to the DPF, a resistive layer that is applied to the first metallic layer, and a second metallic layer that is applied to the resistive layer. The second metallic layer is etched to form a plurality of zones.
