Book Synopsis The Effect of Lubricant Derived Ash on the Catalytic Activity of Diesel Particulate Filters by : Timothy Quinn Murray
Download or read book The Effect of Lubricant Derived Ash on the Catalytic Activity of Diesel Particulate Filters written by Timothy Quinn Murray and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A diesel particulate filter (DPF) is an aftertreatment device used to remove hazardous particulate matter (PM) from diesel engine exhaust. Modem emission restrictions have limited the acceptable amount of PM output by diesel engines to the extent that a filtration strategy, such as the use of a DPF, is necessary. Diesel PM is comprised primarily by black carbon soot. Once trapped in the filter, the soot can be oxidized into CO2 and pass out of the exhaust system during what is referred to as regeneration. Metallic lubricant additive derived compounds, which make up a small fraction of PM, cannot be oxidized and remain inside the DPF until regular maintenance calls for the removal and cleaning of the filter. The buildup of ash increases the pressure drop across the filter, resulting in a direct fuel penalty to the engine. The oxidation of soot can be carried out actively at high temperatures or passively at low temperatures with the aid of a catalyst. Active regeneration requires more energy than passive regeneration because the stream of exhaust gas must be heated to a higher temperature. However, catalysts are expensive, and therefore there is a significant additional capital cost associated with catalyzed filters. The purpose of this research was to investigate the impact of ash accumulation on the catalytic activity of DPFs. The impact was measured experimentally by comparing the ability of two ash loaded DPF samples to promote several chemical reactions (most importantly soot oxidation) to the ability of a previously unused (clean) filter. It was shown that ash accumulation results in a loss in the catalytic activity of a DPF, as evidenced by a reduced capacity to generate NO2, and promote the catalyzed passive oxidation of soot. Reduced soot oxidation performance will result in faster accumulation of soot, which increases the pressure drop across the filter and necessitates more frequent regenerations. Both of these results will negatively impact fuel economy.
Book Synopsis Synergistic Effects of Lubricant Additive Chemistry on Ash Properties Impacting Diesel Particulate Filter Flow Resistance and Catalyst Performance by : Sean Andrew Munnis
Download or read book Synergistic Effects of Lubricant Additive Chemistry on Ash Properties Impacting Diesel Particulate Filter Flow Resistance and Catalyst Performance written by Sean Andrew Munnis and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diesel particulate filters (DPF) have seen widespread use in recent years in both on- and offroad applications as an effective means for meeting the increasingly stringent particulate emission regulations. Overtime, engine-out particulate matter composed of soot and incombustible ash accumulate within the DPF. Although soot can be removed by oxidation, ash remains within the filter and substantially accumulates over time leading to increased flow restriction thus a pressure drop across the filter. An increased pressure drop negatively affects the engine performance & fuel economy leading to the need for filter removal and cleaning. The adverse effects of ash accumulation on DPF performance have been extensively studied in the past and are well know yet the underlying mechanisms for their presence are still not well understood. The ash which accumulates within a DPF is a product of a number of factors including engine wear and corrosion as well as trace metals in diesel fuel, but the majority of the engine out ash is derived from specific metallic additives placed within the diesel lubricant. This work examines the properties of ash derived from specific single lubricant additives, as well as simple combinations, and their adverse effect on DPF performance. Specific ash properties are examined such as porosity, permeability, deposit thicknesses and packing densities along the filter channel walls as a cake layer as well as the resultant end plugs in the rear of the filter channels. Through a combined approach of experiments and theoretical models, the link between the material properties and characteristics of ash derived from single additives as well as combinations can be made to their respective impact on DPF performance. The results of this research are among a few of its kind and aim to help optimize the design of advanced diesel aftertreatment systems as well as lubricant formulations to satisfy the additive requirements for engine protection while mitigating the negative effects on DPF performance.
Book Synopsis Lubricant-derived Ash by : Simon Andrew Glean Watson
Download or read book Lubricant-derived Ash written by Simon Andrew Glean Watson and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diesel particulate filters (DPF) are an effective means for meeting increasingly stringent emissions regulations that limit particulate matter. Over time, ash primarily derived from metallic additives in the engine oil accumulates in DPFs. Lubricant-derived ash increases pressure drop and reduces fuel economy. After long time periods, the accumulation of ash may lead to irreversible plugging in DPFs, which necessitates periodic filter removal and cleaning. This thesis examines the sources for lubricant-derived ash in engines and explores potential opportunities to reduce ash emissions. The research studies changes in lubricant composition in the engine via advanced in-situ diagnostics and computer modeling of species transport in the power cylinder. These changes are directly related to ash emissions and the effectiveness of the lubricant in protecting engine components. In the first part of this thesis, sampling techniques are employed to determine the composition of the lubricant in critical locations in the engine system, where oil is lost by liquid oil consumption and vaporization. The first practical in-situ FTIR measurements of lubricant composition at the piston and liner interface are obtained with a novel diagnostics system employing Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR) spectroscopy. This information is used to create a mass balance for ash-related elements and a framework for modeling the distribution of ash-related species in the engine. In the second part of this thesis, a novel approach to condition the lubricant at a fixed station in the oil circuit is explored as a potential means to reduce ash emissions. This study examines the performance of an innovative oil filter that releases no additives into the lubricant, yet enhances the acid control function typically performed by detergent and dispersant additives. The filter has the potential to be used as a replacement for detergent additives in a lubricant formulation, or enhance additive effectiveness there-by allowing in an increase in oil drain interval. This research will assist in the development of new formulations for diesel lubricants that minimize detrimental effects on DPFs, while providing adequate protection to engine components.
Book Synopsis Passive Regeneration by : Michael James Bahr (Nav. E.)
Download or read book Passive Regeneration written by Michael James Bahr (Nav. E.) and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diesel particulate filters (DPF) have seen widespread growth as an effective means for meeting increasingly rigorous particle emissions regulations. There is growing interest to exploit passive regeneration of DPFs to reduce fuel consumption accompanying traditional active regeneration. Incombustible material or ash, mainly derived from metallic additives in the engine lubricant, accumulates in the DPF over time. This ash accumulation increases flow restriction and rise in pressure drop across the DPF. The growth of pressure drop adversely impacts engine performance and fuel economy. This study built upon previous research to evaluate the different effects of regeneration strategy on ash packing and distribution within DPFs. Since passive regeneration relies on a catalyzed reaction, the interactions of ash with the catalyst will play an important role. Passive regeneration is specifically dependent on exhaust feed gas composition, exhaust conditions including temperature and flow rate, catalyst type and configuration, and the state of DPF loading during prior to passive regeneration. The goal of the study is to address the long-term effects of regeneration parameters on ash accumulations and the resulting impact of ash on the DPF catalyst performance. Experiments were conducted that focused on pressure drop measurements over the lifetime of diesel particulate filters with different regeneration methods coupled with post mortem ash characterization. These experiments provide insight to how these regeneration methods impact the DPF performance. These results, among few fundamental data of this kind, correlate changes in diesel particulate filter performance with exhaust conditions, regeneration strategy, and ash morphological characteristics. Outcomes are useful in optimizing the design of the combined engine-aftertreatment- lubricant system for future diesel engines, balancing the necessities of additives for adequate engine protection with the requirements for robust aftertreatment systems.
Book Synopsis Individual and Synergistic Effects of Lubricant Additive (Ca, Mg, Zn) Combinations on Ash Characteristics and Diesel Particulate Filters Performance by : Casey Jianzhi Chiou
Download or read book Individual and Synergistic Effects of Lubricant Additive (Ca, Mg, Zn) Combinations on Ash Characteristics and Diesel Particulate Filters Performance written by Casey Jianzhi Chiou and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diesel particulate filters (DPF) are devices that trap hazardous particulate matter from diesel engine exhaust in order to meet increasingly strict particle emissions regulations. Diesel exhaust particulates mainly include soot and ash. Soot, carbon particles derived from incomplete fuel combustion, can be oxidized into carbon dioxide after being trapped by the DPF through a catalytic heating process called regeneration. Ash, however, derived from metallic additives in the engine lubricant required for robust engine operation, is an incombustible material and remains within the DPF following regeneration. As ash accumulates over time, exhaust airflow through the filter becomes restricted and an engine backpressure results. Engine performance and fuel economy are reduced, requiring the DPF to be cleaned or replaced. While the detrimental effects of ash on DPF performance and therefore fuel economy can be illustrated and quantified, there is much to be understood about the specific factors that govern ash properties like distribution, permeability, and morphology. Several different parameters, such as engine operating conditions and DPF design, have been found to significantly impact ash characteristics, and the ultimate goal is to be able to control these parameters to reduce detrimental ash effects to a minimum and improve DPF service life and performance. This work addresses the source of ash directly and investigates the effect of lubricant additive chemistry on ash characteristics and DPF performance. Three lubricant formulations, that differ only in the type of additives present, are tested and compared using a controlled, accelerated DPF loading system. Filter pressure drop response and resulting ash property data collected using an array of experimental and analytical techniques show that very little difference exists between the tested oils of differing additive content.
Book Synopsis Characterization of Lubricant-derived Ash Deposition Within Pores of Diesel Particulate Filters Through Non-destructive Advanced Imaging Techniques by : Carolyn A. Wozniak
Download or read book Characterization of Lubricant-derived Ash Deposition Within Pores of Diesel Particulate Filters Through Non-destructive Advanced Imaging Techniques written by Carolyn A. Wozniak and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) have been studied for the past thirty years to trap and oxidize diesel engine exhaust gas particulate matter in order to meet increasingly stringent emission regulations. Due to engine lubrication oil inorganic additives and internal engine wear, ash particles tend to accumulate within the DPF, contributing to a sharp rise in pressure drop during the early stages of the filter life and subsequently decreasing overall engine efficiency. The objective of this work is to understand specifically how ash accumulates within the filter pores during early filter life, calling attention to the effect that the physical and geometric properties of the porous medium has on particulate deposition. Early stage ash-substrate interactions have an especially large effect on filter pressure drop, but have been difficult to measure /investigate in detail due to size, location, and sample constraints. Furthermore, an emphasis will be placed on utilizing nondestructive imaging techniques with tools such as SEM, TEM, and X-ray CT to advance the current characterization of the initial pressure drop phase. Destructive sample preparation and imaging techniques will also be used. The data acquired from this experimentation will then be used to improve upon the current state of DPF analytical pressure modeling, identify differences between various additive chemistries, and highlight potential strategies for optimizing DPF usage and design.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diesel particulate filters (DPF) are devices that physically capture diesel particulates to prevent their release to the atmosphere. Diesel particulate filters have seen widespread use in on- and off-road applications as an effective means for meeting increasingly stringent particle emissions regulations. Although the soot deposit can be removed by regeneration, the incombustible material - ash, primarily derived from metallic additives in the engine lubricant, accumulates in the DPF channels with the increasing vehicle mileage or equivalent running hours. Ash accumulation inside filter increases the flow restriction and reduces the filter soot storage capacity, which results in higher filter regeneration frequencies and larger engine fuel penalty. Combined with experimental observations, DPF models are built to investigate the fundamental mechanisms of DPF aging process. The DPF soot and ash loading model, based on porous media filtration theory, is applied to understand the soot deposition across the substrate wall with soot and ash cake layer formation. DPF models are also used to investigate the process of ash transport and catalyst deactivation with increasing ash load level. DPF ash aging is found to have negative effect on passive regeneration due to the catalyst deactivation and diffusion resistance of ash cake layer. Besides, at given amount of ash load, the effects of ash spatial distribution on DPF performance are studied via simulation. It is found that the ash end plug has significant influences on DPF pressure drop while ash radial and axial distributions have minor effects. At known ash and substrate property, DPF performance can be optimized according the sensitivity map developed from this study. DPF model is beneficial to interpret the experimental observations and it is applied to predict the effects of certain factors, like flow rate and deposit level, on DPF performance. At the same time, modeling results are useful in optimizing the design of the combined engine-aftertreatment-lubricant system for future diesel engines and in understanding the requirements for robust aftertreatment systems.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Cont.) Volatile organic fraction and ash emission rates measured using thermogravimetric analysis indicate exhaust ash increases correlate with increasing sulfated ash content and lubricant consumption. Increased exhaust Sulfur and wear metal debris can also increase relative ash in particulate. Particulate generated using high Sulfur fuels has a higher ash emission rate than that obtained using near zero Sulfur fuel. The consequences of on road emissions improvements will have a significant impact on -the marine industry in coming years. New emissions regulations are reducing allowable particulate emission from marine diesels for the first time, with adaptation of on road ·technologies for these applications expected in the near future.
Book Synopsis Investigations of Ash Layer Characteristics and Ash Distribution in a Diesel Particulate Filter Using Novel Lubricant Additive Tracers by : Ryan Michael Morrow
Download or read book Investigations of Ash Layer Characteristics and Ash Distribution in a Diesel Particulate Filter Using Novel Lubricant Additive Tracers written by Ryan Michael Morrow and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diesel particulate filters (DPF) are currently widely used in various applications as a means of collecting particulate matter in order to meet increasingly stringent particle emissions regulations. Over time, the DPF slowly accumulates incombustible material or ash, mostly from the metallic additives present in the engine lubricant. This build up of accumulated ash leads to an increase in flow restriction and therefore an increase in pressure drop along the DPF. The increased pressure drop negatively impacts engine performance and fuel economy, and it also requires eventual filter removal for ash cleaning. While the major effects of ash accumulation on DPF performance are known, the fundamental underlying mechanisms are not. This work is focused on understanding key mechanisms, such as the soot deposition and the ash formation, accumulation, and distribution processes, which play a major role in determining the magnitude of the ash effect on DPF pressure drop. More specifically, it explores the location of ash deposit accumulation inside the DPF channels, whether in a layer along the filter walls or packed in a plug at the rear of the channels, which is one of the key factors controlling DPF pressure drop. A specialized experiment was set up by running three different lubricants, each with its own unique additive tracer, sequentially through a diesel burner system. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to analyze the evolution of the ash deposits in the DPF samples in order to explain the specific mechanisms and processes controlling ash properties and their effect on DPF pressure drop. The experimental results were compared and correlated with previous DPF test data and theoretical models, providing additional insight to optimize diesel particulate filter performance. The results are useful in optimizing the design of the engine, aftertreatment, and lubricant systems for future diesel engines, balancing the requirements of additives for adequate engine protection with the requirements for robust after treatment systems.

Book Synopsis Characterizing Ash Properties and Effects on Diesel Particulate Filter Flow Resistance by : Gregory James Monahan
Download or read book Characterizing Ash Properties and Effects on Diesel Particulate Filter Flow Resistance written by Gregory James Monahan and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a result of increasingly stringent emissions regulations, Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) have become a widespread method of reducing particulate emissions in both on and off highway diesel engine use. This particular aftertreatment system is chosen for its high filtration efficiency and relative simplicity. The porous ceramic substrate captures the particulate matter which is comprised of combustible soot and inorganic metallic ash. While the soot can be cleared from the filter through high temperature oxidation, the small amount of ash remains in the filter. The presence of these soot and ash particles creates an increase in the flow resistance of the filter which creates more backpressure on the engine and results in a decrease in fuel economy. Over the life of the filter, the ash particles become a significant portion of particulate matter in the filter and the resulting flow resistance. While the effects of ash and soot on filter performance have been extensively studied, the underlying deposition mechanisms and effects of various ash properties are not well understood. The focus of this research is to investigate the effects of ash properties such as packing density and chemistry on the flow resistance of both the ash cake layer and the filter substrate. The results of this and other research can support the optimization of operating conditions, regeneration strategies, and lubricant additive formulations for decreased system backpressure. Additionally, this research seeks to develop and improve advanced diagnostic tools in order to bridge the gap between macro scale quantifiable flow resistance and micro scale deposition characteristics. Using both high resolution X-Ray CT imaging and flow simulation tools, a method is tested by which values for ash and filter permeability can be calculated to investigate local micro scale filter phenomena or various lab and field samples.
