<p>A catalyst-carrying filter has a partition wall that includes a gas-inflow-side layer and a gas-outflow-side layer. One open end and the other open end of a plurality of cells are alternately plugged by plugging sections. The gas-inflow-side layer of the partition wall includes a PM removal catalyst layer that supports or is coated with an oxidizing catalyst for promoting oxidation of particulate matter contained in exhaust gas. The gas-outflow-side layer of the partition wall includes a PM collection layer that has a small average pore size so as to collect particulate matter, and a gas purification catalyst layer that supports or is coated with a gas purification catalyst that promotes oxidation of unburnt gas.</p> |
