“…Each of these is analyzed relative to a baseline that approximates mid-1980s conditions in the South Coast Air Basin in California, consisting of Los Angeles and Orange Counties plus the non-desert parts of San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. These baseline conditions include use of low-sulfur diesel fuel (0.05 percent sulfur by weight, the legal maximum in Southern California), which we believe to be a likely first step toward more stringent controls on diesel vehicles anywhere (Weaver et al, 1986;Small, 1988).…”

A cyclone-based filtration system has been developed and its potential for reduction of exhaust particulates in high-speed direct injection diesel engines is evaluated; the filtration efficiency of the four cyclones has been enhanced by means of particulate agglomeration induced by cooling in a heat exchanger. With this system installed in the exhaust pipe of a 2.5 litre direct injection engine, tests covering a wide range of speed, load and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) fraction resulted in reductions of up to 77 per cent in emitted particulate mass flowrate. The dependence of the system's performance on engine operating conditions, EGR configuration and cyclone geometry is presented and discussed.
