Abstract: Systems and methods for removing soot in an aftertreatment system are disclosed. A method includes: receiving data regarding an exhaust gas flow rate of exhaust gas; receiving data regarding a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) inlet temperature; determining an adsorption amount of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system based on the exhaust gas flow rate of the exhaust gas and the SCR inlet temperature; comparing the adsorption amount of soot to a predefined adsorption amount limit; in response to the adsorption amount of soot exceeding the predefined adsorption amount limit; initiating an exhaust cleaning event to remove at least some accumulated soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system; receiving exhaust gas data during the exhaust cleaning event; determining a desorption amount of soot based on the exhaust gas data; comparing the desorption amount of soot to a predefined desorption limit; and ceasing the exhaust cleaning event based on the comparison.

Abstract: Systems and methods for removing accumulated soot in an aftertreatment system are disclosed herein. A method includes: determining, by a controller, an adsorption amount of soot in an exhaust aftertreatment system; comparing, by the controller, the adsorption amount of soot to a predefined adsorption amount limit; in response to the adsorption amount exceeding the predefined adsorption amount limit, initiating, by the controller, an exhaust cleaning event to remove at least some accumulated soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system; receiving, by the controller, exhaust gas data during the exhaust cleaning event; determining, by the controller, a desorption amount of soot based on the exhaust gas data; comparing, by the controller, the desorption amount of soot to a predefined desorption limit; and ceasing, by the controller, the exhaust cleaning event based on the comparison.

Abstract: Systems and methods for removing accumulated soot in an aftertreatment system for an engine are disclosed herein. A method includes receiving an indication that an engine of a vehicle has been operating in a low load condition for more than a predefined amount of time; in response, determining an adsorption rate of soot in an exhaust aftertreatment system of the vehicle; determining an adsorption amount of soot based on the adsorption rate for a predefined amount of time; comparing the adsorption amount to a predefine adsorption amount limit; and in response to the adsorption amount exceeding the predefined adsorption amount limit, initiating an exhaust cleaning event to remove at least some of the accumulated soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system.
