FUEL-CELL TYPE OXIDATION OF SOOT ON YSZ
Résumé
Isotopical labelling studies for soot oxidation have been conducted on YSZ. Temperature- Programmed Oxidation experiments with 18O2 demonstrate the key-role of bulk oxygen species in the oxidation process.The results emphasize that YSZ can be utilized to produce self-regenerating DPFs able to continuously oxidize soot particles with oxygen in Diesel exhaust conditions.
