A diesel particulate filter regenerates every \( 500 \) km on a vehicle covering \( 25000 \) km a year. The number of regenerations a year is

  • A.500
  • B.12.5
  • C.50
  • D.20

Answer: C

Correct answer: 50

Divide the annual distance by the regeneration interval:

\[ \frac{25\,000}{500} = 50 \]

Each regeneration raises the exhaust temperature enough to burn off the soot, usually by injecting extra fuel, so fifty of them a year carry a real fuel penalty. The interval also depends on how the vehicle is used: heavy urban duty loads the filter faster and, worse, may never allow regeneration to complete.
