What is soot reduction?

Emigreen® Soot reduction systems use a monolithic ceramic filter that is extremely efficient at capturing the soot particles emitted by diesel engines. To optimise filtration efficiency and extend the operational life of the filter, the particulate matter that builds up in the filter has to be removed. The process of burning off the accumulated soot is known as filter regeneration. See Emigreen for more info: emigreen.eu/solutions/soot-reduction/
