Methods and systems are provided for filtering particulate matter in an exhaust passage of an engine system. In one example, a method may include during a cold start condition comprising an engine temperature being less than a threshold engine temperature, directing engine exhaust gas to an exhaust particulate filter, and during a warm engine condition, directing engine exhaust gas to bypass the exhaust particulate filter, wherein the warm engine condition comprises the engine temperature being greater than or equal to the threshold engine temperature and fuel being combusted in the engine. In this way, the exhaust particulate filter may be reliably regenerated during engine shutdown events such as DFSOs while reducing filter degradation, and lowering PM emissions.

1. An engine system, comprising: an engine;an exhaust particulate filter positioned in an exhaust bypass passage downstream of the engine;an exhaust diverter valve positioned in an exhaust main passage upstream of the exhaust bypass passage; anda controller, including executable instructions to, during a first condition comprising an engine temperature being less than a threshold engine temperature, positioning the exhaust diverter valve to direct engine exhaust gas from the exhaust main passage to the exhaust bypass passage;during a second condition, positioning the exhaust diverter valve to direct engine exhaust gas to bypass the exhaust bypass passage, wherein the second condition comprises the engine temperature being greater than or equal to the threshold engine temperature and fuel being combusted in the engine; andduring a third condition, positioning the exhaust diverter valve to direct engine exhaust gas to the exhaust bypass passage and the exhaust particulate filter, wherein the third condition comprises a crankshaft acceleration being less than a threshold crankshaft acceleration while the engine temperature is greater than the threshold engine temperature. 2. The engine system of claim 1, further comprising an exhaust particulate filter heater, wherein the executable instructions further comprise heating the exhaust particulate filter to a regeneration temperature with the exhaust particulate filter heater during the second condition. 3. The engine system of claim 2, wherein the exhaust particulate filter heater comprises an electrical heating element thermally coupled to the exhaust particulate filter. 4. The engine system of claim 3, wherein the exhaust particulate filter heater comprises an emission control device upstream of the exhaust particulate filter and thermally coupled to the exhaust particulate filter, andheating the exhaust particulate filter comprises, during the second condition, transferring thermal energy from the emission control device to the exhaust particulate filter, wherein the exhaust particulate filter is regenerated without flowing engine exhaust gas therethrough. 5. The engine system of claim 1, wherein the third condition further comprises an exhaust particulate filter temperature being greater than a regeneration temperature and an exhaust particulate filter pressure drop being greater than a threshold pressure drop. 6. The engine system of claim 5, wherein the executable instructions further comprise, during the third condition, in response to the exhaust particulate filter pressure drop decreasing below the threshold pressure drop, positioning the exhaust diverter valve to direct engine exhaust gas to bypass the exhaust bypass passage. 7. The engine system of claim 6, wherein the executable instructions further comprise, during the third condition, in response to the exhaust particulate filter temperature decreasing below the regeneration temperature, positioning the exhaust diverter valve to direct engine exhaust gas to bypass the exhaust bypass passage. 8. The engine system of claim 1, wherein a cross-sectional area of the exhaust bypass passage is smaller than a cross-sectional area of the exhaust main passage.
