In the past, diesel-engine emissions were minimized mainly by measures implemented inside of the engine. However, the untreated emissions produced by many diesel-engined cars will exceed future emission limits in Europe, the U.S.A., and Japan. The high minimization rates required will presumably only be achievable by an efficient combination of measures inside and downstream of the engine. For this reason, intense development work is also ongoing on exhaust-gas treatment systems for diesel engines in analogy to tried and tested processes for gasoline engines.
