What is the Volkswagen Particulate Filter?

[SanSilas]

Volkswagen particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the diesel engine emission system, which can capture particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. More information about the particulate filter is as follows: 1. The particulate filter can reduce the soot produced by diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate emissions are subsequently burned out during vehicle operation. 2. How the particulate filter works: The exhaust gas enters the particulate trap through a dedicated pipe, passes through its internally densely arranged bag-type filter, and the soot particles are adsorbed on the filter made of metal fiber felt; when the adsorption amount of particles reaches a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites and burns, burning the soot particles adsorbed on it into harmless carbon dioxide that is then discharged.
