[Particulate Component Emission Characteristic from a Diesel Bus with DOC and CDPF].

A diesel bus was tested with a China City Bus Cycle (CCBC) on a heavy chassis dynamometer, and the components of the particulate emissions with different after-treatment equipment were investigated. Results showed that OC was less than EC in the particulates of the bus emissions without the use of after-treatment equipment. The organic components were mainly fatty acids (60.9%) and n-alkanes (32.4%), with a few hopanes and PAHs. Fatty acid components were mainly C16:0, C18, C14, and C18:1. The n-alkanes were mainly C18-C24, with C21H44 and C22H46 accounting for the greatest portion. PAH mass was concentrated in medium and small molecular weight components, such as Pyr, FL, and PA. While PAH toxicity was dominated by medium and high molecular weight components, BaP was the most toxic, followed by B(b+k)F, BaA, and IcdP. The total toxicity of the PAHs decreased by 2.7% after DOC treatment and continued to decrease by 89.6%-93.8% after CDPF treatment. After-treatment equipment significantly reduced the OC+EC emissions by 18.9% (DOC) and 70.5%-72.5% (CDPF), but the reduction rate varied from one component to another. The different precious metal loadings of the CDPF did not obviously affect the reduction rate.
