The emission limits for diesel vehicles have been significantly decreased all over the world during the last years. This has involved enormous challenges for engine manufacturers as well as researchers to develop efficient, reliable and economic exhaust clean-up processes. For the reduction of NOx emissions the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with urea is the favoured technology, whereas diesel particulate matter is preferentially removed by diesel particulate filters. The most recent trend is to combine NOx reduction and particulate matter filtration in a single device. The contributions of the exhaust gas after-treatment group at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) to the development of these technologies will be reviewed with a focus on latest developments and current research projects.
