dc.description.abstract | This paper presents the results of a preliminary experimental study to assess the
performance of biomorphic silicon carbide when used for the abatement of soot
particles in the exhaust of Diesel engines. Given its optimal thermal and mechanical properties, silicon carbide is one of the most popular substrates in commercial diesel particulate filters. Biomorphic silicon carbide is known for having, besides, a hierarchical porous microstructure and the possibility of tailoring that
microstructure through the selection of a suitable wood precursor. An experimental rig was designed and built to be integrated within an engine test bench
that allowed to characterizing small lab-scale biomorphic silicon carbide filter
samples. A particle counter was used to measure the particles distribution before
and after the samples, while a differential pressure sensor was used to measure
their pressure drop during the soot loading process. The experimental campaign
yielded promising results: for the flow rate conditions that the measuring devices
imposed (1 litre per minute; space velocity = 42,000 L/h), the samples showed initial efficiencies above 80%, pressure drops below 20 mbar, and a low increase
in the pressure drop with the soot load which allows to reach almost 100% efficiency with an increase in pressure drop lower than 15%, when the soot load is
still less than 0.01 g/L. It shows the potential of this material and the interest for
advancing in more complex diesel particle filter designs based on the results of
