EXHAUST EMISSION CONTROL DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To keep the pressure loss of a particulate filter low. SOLUTION: This exhaust emission control device has the particulate filter 22 for collecting particulates in exhaust gas. The particulate filter has a partition 54 for defining a passage. The partition is made of a porous material. Upstream end partition parts 53 of the partition are gathered and interconnected so as to perfectly block an upstream end opening of the passage. The upstream end partition parts carry oxidation material capable of oxidizing the particulates.
