Abstract

Provided are a hollow inner electrode 5 constituted by an electrically conductive filter capable of capturing particulates, a cylindrical outer electrode 6 circumferentially surrounding the electrode 5, a housing 4 incorporated in a flow passage of exhaust G and accommodating the electrodes 5 and 6, a temperature sensor 2 for detecting temperature of the exhaust G and an electric discharge controller 3 for controlling electric power to be distributed to the electrodes 5 and 6 on the basis of a detected value of the temperature sensor 2 . When the temperature of the exhaust G obtained by the temperature sensor 2 is lowered, electric power necessary for generation of discharge plasma is distributed by the discharge controller 3 to the electrodes 5 and 6, thereby oxidizing the particulates captured by the electrode 5 to reduce electricity consumption.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to an exhaust purification device. Background technique

[0002] Diesel engine exhaust (diesel combustion gas) contains carbonaceous coal and SOF (Soluble Organic Fraction: soluble organic fraction) composed of carbonaceous hydrocarbon components as main components, and a small amount of sulfuric acid is added Particles (Particulate Matter: particulate matter) composed of salt (fog-like sulfuric acid component).

[0003] In order to suppress the diffusion of such particles into the atmosphere, a filter for collecting particles is often installed in the exhaust system of the engine.

[0004] As an example of such a particulate filter, there is a form in which a honeycomb mandrel is formed of ceramics such as cordierite, and exhaust gas from an engine flows through a plurality of passages separated by porous thin walls of the honeycomb mandrel.

[0005] In the above-mentioned particulate filter, every other end portion of a plural...
