Particulate removal system

摘要

A particulate removal system includes a case 2 provided partway along an exhaust system 1 leading to an engine E, a filter 3A that collects particulates contained in an exhaust gas, and an electromagnetic wave heating device 8 for burning the particulates collected by the filter 3A. The filter 3A is housed within the case 2, and the electromagnetic wave heating device 8 is connected to the case 2. The filter 3A is divided in two and arranged within the case 2 as an upstream side filter section 4A and a downstream side filter section 5A. The electromagnetic wave heating device 8 is connected to the case 2 on the upstream side of the upstream side filter section 4A.
