Abstract

See full text

In a method for performing NO2-based regeneration of a diese! particulate filter (DPF) using recirculated NOx, the DPF is regenerated by oxidizing soot in the DPF with NO2 so that CO, CO2, and NO are formed, at least some NOx is recirculated from a takeoff point to a point upstream of the takeoff point. NO2 can be formed by reacting the recirculated NO with 02. During regeneration of the DPF, at least some of the NO2 that oxidizes soot in the DPF is recirculated ISI 02 or formed from recirculated NO that is reacted with 02 to form NO2. An exhaust aftertreatment system for performing NO2-based regeneration of a diesel particulate filter (DPF) using recirculated NOx is also disclosed.
