Section 6 Particulate Matter Controls - US EPA

Particulate matter (PM) is the general term used for a mixture of solid particles and liquid droplets suspended in air. U.S. EPA defines PM 10 as particle matter having a nominal aerodynamic diameter of 10 micrometer ( µm) or less. PM 2.5 is defined as PM less than or equal to 2.5 µm in aerodynamic diameter. In general, “coarse PM” refers ...

A Quick Guide to the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF).

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is a device designed to reduce emissions by removing diesel particulate matter (or soot) from the exhaust gas of a diesel engine. It is required for your vehicle to meet Euro 5 Emission Standards.

6.33 6.34 Replacement text: Most particulate matter from combustion processes (including road traffic) occurs in the PM 2.5 fraction. The AQAL for PM 2.5 is lower than that for PM 10, and this therefore represents the more conservative approach for these sources. The application of Table 6.3 for PM 2.5 is straightforward, given
