    Abstract: A plasmatron (10) reforms hydrocarbon fuels so as to produce a reformed gas, which is supplied to a remote device such as an internal combustion engine or a fuel cell. The plasmatron (10) includes an air jacket (16), which removes heat from the reaction chamber (20) of the plasmatron (10) and supplies heated air to the plasma-generating assembly (12) of the plasmatron (10). A method of operating a plasmatron (10) is also disclosed.

    Abstract: An apparatus for removing particulate soot from an exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine (12, 50) includes a particulate filter assembly having a catalyst (14, 74) and a soot filter (16, 76) positioned downstream of the catalyst (14, 74) for trapping soot particles therein. Hydrogen gas is introduced into the exhaust gas at a location upstream of the catalyst (14, 74). The catalyst (14, 74) catalyzes an exothermic oxidation reaction between the hydrogen gas and oxygen in the exhaust gas. Heat from this exothermic oxidation reaction is transferred to the soot filter (16, 76) thereby igniting the soot particles trapped therein. A method for regenerating a particulate filter assembly is also disclosed.

    Abstract: A method of operating a fuel reformer (12) to regenerate a NO x trap (14) includes operating the fuel reformer (12) to produce a reformate gas (22) comprising hydrogen and carbon monoxide and advancing reformate gas (22) through the NO x trap (14) so as to regenerate the NO x trap (14). The method further includes determining if a SO x regeneration of the NO x trap is to be performed and generating a SO x -regeneration control signal (30) to response thereto. The temperature of the NO x trap (14) is raised and reformate gas is advanced into the NO x trap (14) in response to the SO x -regeneration signal so as to remove SO x from within the NO x trap (14). A fuel reformer system (36) is also disclosed.
