Abstract
The subject of exhaust particulate emissions from road vehicles continues to gain attention and further, more stringent legislative demands are expected in this area. While the European Union has been at the forefront in recent decades, other jurisdictions are making progress towards more comprehensive control and limitation of exhaust particulate. This technical overview examines past, current and likely future (Euro 7) legislative requirements and also presents sample results from a range of vehicle types, in order to make comparisons and discuss the impact of expected regulatory updates. The impacts of powertrain trends, including hybridization, on exhaust particulate emissions and their control are briefly analyzed. Regulatory trends including the intention to move the lower boundary of the size range considered from 23 nm to 10 nm and the elimination of fuel- and technology-specific limits on particulate emissions are discussed and their implications analyzed. The impact of test conditions and the demands placed on aftertreatment systems are identified based on examples from the literature and the authors’ own results presented in this work. Finally, some comments on considerations for the topic of exhaust particulate measurement and control for the coming years are offered.
