Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF)
A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is a device designed to remove diesel particulate matter (DPM) or soot, from the exhaust of diesel engines. Diesel particulate filters can remove roughly 85% of the soot found in diesel emissions and can at times, depending on the filter and other equipment it is paired with can attain 100% soot removal efficiencies.
Diesel-powered vehicles which are equipped with a DPF emit no visible emissions from the exhaust pipe and far less harmful not only to the environment, but to the general health of those in the vicinity of the running vehicle.

CATTRAP™ PASSIVELY REGENERATING DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
The Cattrap is a passively regenerating diesel particulate filter designed specifically for mining and other heavy industrial applications. Cattrap’s advanced base metal soot ignition catalyst system eliminates diesel particulate emissions in excess of 85% while actually reducing toxic NO2 emissions. Listed on the United States Mine Safety Health Administration (MSHA) Table 2 List of Diesel Particulate Matter Control Technologies, the Cattrap can be employed in mining environments where most other DPF’s can’t!
