Engine particulate filters have been widely applied across the world to control engine exhaust particulate matter (or particulate number) emissions. With increasing vehicle mileage, ash accumulation deteriorates vehicle fuel economy and complicates on-board control. Extending filter service life with ash loading has significant economic and environmental impacts. Many studies have been conducted in characterizing ash accumulation and evaluating its impacts on filter performance. However, comprehensive reviews covering all the key issues in the field are rather rare. This paper reviews the extensive prior research on filter ash, and not only summarizes the experimental observations but also elucidates the fundamental mechanisms. The review covers the areas of ash origin, accumulation, transport, evolution, and artificial acceleration methods. The previously reported data of ash properties is compiled and analyzed. The advantages and disadvantages of ash acceleration approaches are also discussed in detail. Based on the cumulative understanding, a few potential ways to improve ash management are discussed in this paper. In short, the present work systematically reviews the previous observations and understanding of ash aging in particulate filters and identifies areas that need further research, which can be useful guidance for future studies.
