  • Patent number: 7328573
    Abstract: A system for assisting regeneration of a particle filter of an exhaust line (3) of a diesel engine associated with, in particular: a particle filter (7); an oxidation catalytic converter (6); a common system (8) for feeding fuel to the cylinders of the engine; means (16) for adding to the fuel an additive adapted to reduce the combustion temperature of the trapped particles and propagate their combustion; and monitoring means (17) for triggering a phase of regeneration of the particle filter by combustion of the particles trapped therein during a phase of multiple injections of fuel; characterized in that the particle filter (7) is impregnated with a catalyst for oxidizing the hydrocarbons and CO present in the exhaust gases flowing through said particle filter.
