An improved, robust diesel emission control system employs a lightly diesel particulate filter (DPF), preferably with a platinum containing fuel borne catalyst (FBC) in the fuel. The DPF is preferably of wire mesh construction and at least partially lightly catalyzed with precious metal catalyst, <SUB>e.g</SUB>., platinum group metal, having a metal loading of from about 3 to 15 grams per cubic foot to minimize formation of NO<SUB>2</SUB> in the exhaust gas. Preferred fuel borne catalyst levels will be low,<SUB>e.g</SUB>., from 0.05 to 0.5 ppm for platinum and 3 to 8 ppm for cerium and/or iron, thereby providing effective engine out emissions reductions without discharging excessive amounts OfNO<SUB>2</SUB> to the atmosphere. |
