| Popis: | The removal properties of diesel exhaust particles (DEP) were investigated using an engine exhaust particle size spectrometer (EEPS), field emission-type scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS). DEP were treated using a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) reactor installed in the tail pipe of a diesel engine, and a model DBD reactor fed with DEP in the mixture of N(2) and O(2). When changing the experimental parameters of both the plasma conditions and the engine load conditions, we obtained characteristic information of DEP treated with plasma discharges from the particle diameter and the composition. In evaluating the model DBD reactor, it became clear that there were two types of plasma processes (reactions with active oxygen species to yield CO(2) and reactions with active nitrogen species to yield nitrogen containing compounds). Moreover, from the result of a TOF-SIMS analysis, the characteristic secondary ions, such as C(2)H(6)N(+), C(4)H(12)N(+), and C(10)H(20)N(2)(+), were strongly detected from the DEP surfaces during the plasma discharges. This indicates that the nitrogen contained hydrocarbons were generated by plasma reactions. |
