Abstract: Methods and systems for reducing emissions of particulate matter from a gaseous stream are provided. The subject systems include a catalyst that reduces the amount of particulate matter emissions in the gaseous stream. Embodiments of the subject systems may also reduce the amount of particulate matter precursor emissions in the gaseous stream. In some cases, the subject systems and methods include a sorber that facilitates the reduction in particulate matter and particulate matter precursors in the gaseous stream. The subject methods and systems find use in a variety of applications where it is desired to reduce particulate matter emissions from a gaseous stream.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for determining a regeneration cycle thermal ramp. A thermal ramp module estimates a regeneration cycle thermal ramp. A soot content module estimates a soot content for a filter. In one embodiment, an oxygen content module estimates an oxygen gas concentration for the filter. A thermal profile module calculates a thermal profile for the filter as a function of the soot content and the thermal ramp. The thermal profile module may also include the oxygen content in the thermal profile calculation. A test module modifies the regeneration cycle thermal ramp if the thermal profile exceeds a thermal threshold. In one embodiment, a communication module may communicate a warning if the thermal ramp exceeds a warning threshold.
