A method and apparatus wherein a diesel having an exhaust-gas passage, a particle filter at a location along the exhaust-gas passage and a bypass passage bypassing the particle filter is started with the bypass passage closed, is operated at idle and up to a predetermined partial load with the bypass passage open and is operated beyond the partial load with the bypass passage closed so as to reduce particulate emissions and to assure regeneration of the particle filter.

A method of operating a diesel engine of the type having an exhaust-gas passage connected to a gas-dynamic pressure-wave machine, a particle filter at a location along said exhaust-gas passage and a bypass passage bypassing said particle filter, said method comprising the steps of: starting the engine with the bypass passage closed so that substantially all exhaust gases are conveyed through the particle filter; operating the engine in the range of idle and up to a predetermined partial load with the bypass passage opened so that substantially all exhaust gases are conveyed through the bypass passage and delivered to the pressure wave machine in an unfiltered condition; operating the engine beyond the predetermined partial load with the bypass closed constantly and completely so that substantially all exhaust gases are delivered to the pressure wave machine in a filtered condition; and elevating the temperature of exhaust gases passing through the exhaust-gas passage during said operating steps by recirculating a portion of the exhaust gases through the engine by means of the pressure wave machine.
