Diesel Particulate Filter | DPF Cleaning Brisbane | DPF Replacement Brisbane

Diesel Particulate Filter

Unlike the DOC, the diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a wall-flow filter consisting of a matrix of materials (a composite of cordierite, silicon carbide, or metal fibres) that traps any remaining soot that the DOC couldn’t oxidize. Wall-flow diesel particulate filters usually remove 85% or more of the soot, and under certain conditions can achieve soot removal efficiencies approaching 100%. Some filters are a single-use unit, intended for disposal and replacement once full of accumulated ash. The soot remains in the DPF until it is regenerated either passively, actively or forced.

Diesel particulate filter for heavy-duty vehicle (a), cross-section viewing showing filtration processes within several DPF channels (b), and close-up view of particle capture and build-up on the channel walls (c).

Passive regeneration occurs during the vehicle’s normal operating temperatures when engine load and vehicle drive-cycle create temperatures that are high enough to regenerate the soot build up on the DPF walls. The DPF will oxidise the particulates anywhere between 275-360⁰ Celsius. Passive regeneration takes place automatically approximately every 400-800 km depending on the quantity of particulate inside the filter and the driving behaviour.

Active regeneration happens while the vehicle is in use, when low engine load and lower exhaust gas temperatures inhibit a passive regeneration. Sensors upstream and downstream of the DPF (or a pressure differential sensor) provide readings that initiate a measured addition of fuel into the exhaust stream. There are two methods to inject the extra fuel, either downstream injection directly into the exhaust stream, downstream of the turbo, or fuel injected into the engine cylinders on the exhaust stroke. This fuel and exhaust gas mixture passes through the Diesel Oxidising Catalyst (DOC) creating temperatures over 600 degrees Celsius to burn off the accumulated soot. Once the pressure drop across the DPF lowers to a calculated value, the process ends, until the soot accumulation builds up again

This regeneration process occurs at road speeds higher than can generally be attained on city streets. Vehicles driven exclusively at low speeds in urban or peak hour traffic can require periodic trips at higher speeds to trigger an active regeneration to clean out the DPF. If you as a driver ignore the warning light and wait too long to operate the vehicle at about 100km/hr for a reasonable time frame the DPF may not regenerate properly and continued operation past that point may cause damage to the DPF filter resulting in the need for a complete replacement.

Pressure drop evolution with soot accumulation in the DPF showing rapid initial rise in pressure drop due to soot accumulation in the filter pores (1) followed by a gradual increase as soot builds a layer along the walls (2).

If the DPF develops too much pressure then the last type of regeneration must be used - a forced regeneration. This can be accomplished in two ways.

1. The Vehicle operator can initiate the regeneration via a dashboard mounted switch. Various signal interlocks, such as park brake applied, transmission in neutral, engine coolant temperature, and an absence of engine related fault codes are required (vary by OEM and application) for this process to initiate.

2. When the soot accumulation reaches a level that is potentially damaging to the engine or the exhaust system, the solution involves a qualified technician using a computer program to run a regeneration of the DPF manually.

Back pressure usually returns to normal after the soot is oxidised during an active, passive or forced regen, however don’t forget about the remaining ash! It builds up inside the DPF and does not burn or oxidize like soot and will remain in the DPF until removed.

Ash is made of minerals, metals and other trace elements from the breakdown of lubricants, additives and engine wear.

Ash builds up at a much slower rate than soot but if it’s ignored will eventually cause an increase in back pressure, fuel consumption and at worst DPF failure. As the ash builds up inside the DPF the number of active regenerations increase causing fuel economy to become poor, temperatures inside the DPF to become extreme which can severely damage the construction of the internal filter system and more constant back pressure that can be detrimental to the turbo itself.

The longer the ash is left inside the DPF the higher the chance of it hardening into a plug which closes off that portion of the filter.

Shorter intervals between regenerations is the first clue to ash build up and is a tell tale sign the DPF needs to be removed for cleaning. This can also be observed by logging the regen cycles in a workshop with diagnostic equipment. When the DPF is removed for cleaning it’s always a good practice to also remove the DOC and clean it as well if necessary.

Failure of fuel injectors or turbochargers resulting in contamination of the filter with raw diesel, engine oil or debris can also necessitate cleaning.

Tapping Energy From Fatbergs | Fluence

Grease in sewer pipes caused massive upkeep complications recently for the 502nd Civil Engineer Squadron and the San Antonio H2o Method.

Fatbergs, enormous accretions of grease and debris, are a massive issue in sewers, but decentralized and sustainable methods have been proposed

It weighed as substantially as a blue whale and was even extended, but Londoners did not understand it was lurking beneath their streets until eventually historic sewer tunnels backed up. The blockage turned out to be the world’s greatest recorded fatberg, a monolithic mass of congealed fats, hygiene products, and other debris.

Travis Andrews of The Washington Submit wrote that the colossal fatberg weighed 130 tons and was a lot more than 250 yards extensive. Fatbergs, supplied their dimension and composition, existing a enormous cleanup issue. Municipalities have legislated and made recognition applications to transform fats-disposal behavior in their populations, and scientists have proposed decentralized wastewater therapy methods to end fatbergs just before they kind. The blockages also existing possibilities: 1 firm in the United Kingdom even plans to take out oil-rich fatbergs from sewer tunnels and deliver electrical energy from them.

Fatberg Formation

Sewer methods around the globe have seasoned blockages from congealed fats and debris, but sewers in the U.K. feel significantly susceptible to abnormal fatberg development for many explanations. Avery Thompson of Well-known Mechanics describes that it’s partly because of to lax restrictions on grease traps:

Most metropolitan areas in the U.S. involve restaurants to […] maintain their personal grease traps, but the guidelines in the U.K. make employing identical restrictions difficult.

Thompson also said exposure to calcium from concrete sewer tunnel walls hardens the plentiful fats into a solid, soaplike compound.

But there is a lot more to a fatberg than fats and calcium. As described, disposable hygiene products, which includes the seemingly harmless “flushable” damp wipes so prevalent in contemporary international locations, add to and fortify fatbergs as they develop.

Fighting Fatbergs

To combat fatbergs, Vancouver, in the Canadian province of British Columbia, has been using the strategy of voluntary compliance with its “Wipe It, Eco-friendly Bin It” community recognition marketing campaign to modify how the community disposes of cooking oil and fats. CTVNews reports that the marketing campaign encourages persons to scrape or wipe grease and oil from butter dishes and cooking pans, then compost the grease alternatively of disposing of it in drains.

Washington, D.C., is looking for to management a single of the most important catalysts of fatberg development in its sewer system by legislating the conditions less than which a firm may perhaps label its damp wipes as “flushable.” Katherine Shaver of the Chicago Tribune recently noted on the Washington law passed in response to wipes that are offered as flushable but allegedly jam and clog gear at wastewater therapy vegetation. The issue expenditures U.S. utilities up to $1 billion yearly, in accordance to the Nationwide Affiliation of Thoroughly clean H2o Organizations.

A pending lawsuit submitted by Kimberly-Clark, a Texas-based damp wipes maker, has contested the law on constitutional grounds.

Decentralized Treatment’s Role

Researcher Thomas Phillip Fudge has prompt a new strategy to the fatberg issue. He stresses that lesser, decentralized water therapy methods can be deployed to take out fats and other compounds a lot more effectively than massive amenities.

After comparatively concentrated wastewater enters a municipal sewer system, it mixes with a substantially bigger volume of rainwater, exponentially raising the amount of water that have to be taken care of. A decentralized remedy avoids this pointless flood of water by dealing with the wastewater in the vicinity of its resource, where it is continue to rather concentrated, considerably decreasing the scale of the career.

Fudge states in phys.org’s the Dialogue:

The remedy is to develop compact therapy vegetation in new developments or renovations that services lesser parts.

He envisions not only eradicating the fats that kind fatbergs, but also extracting biogas from sewage for heating and cooking, a process that would be substantially a lot more difficult with very diluted wastewater.

Tapping Fatbergs’ Electric power Likely

The firm 20C sees existing fatbergs as an opportunity. It recently concluded a 200-million-pound (US$264 million) deal with Thames H2o to deliver enough electrical energy to power 39,000 houses working with the fatbergs as gasoline, noted Christopher York of Huffington Submit U.K. As section of the deal, 75 GWh of the electrical energy generated from fatbergs will power nearby desalination and wastewater therapy amenities.

While not all fatbergs develop to a grand scale, they do produce unique amounts of havoc for sewer methods across the world. But, until eventually they are stopped just before they kind, metropolitan areas are adopting diverse strategies to exploit the electrical power trapped beneath their streets.
