Diesel Particulate Filters are installed on the exhaust end of diesel motors to help to trap soot and ash that would ordinarily be pushed out through the tailpipe and into the atmosphere.

California is taking the step to reduce harmful emissions from the air by mandating the use of DPFs. The average cost of a DPF for a Med/HD Truck (Peterbilt/Kenworth etc.) is close to $10,000. That might not even include installation!
