The regeneration of monolithic wall-flow diesel particulate traps

This thesis describes the behaviour of monolithic wall-flow diesel particulate traps during periodic cleaning or 'regeneration'. The concept and development of a new regeneration technique using low-power microwave energy is also presented. Health and environmental concerns with diesel eng...
