There is provided an exhaust treatment system (16) for a combustion engine, typically a diesel engine (12) used in an underground coal mining environment. The diesel engine (12) includes an exhaust manifold (36) configured to direct an exhaust 5 flow from the engine (12), a turbocharger (38) connected to receive the exhaust flow from the exhaust manifold (36), a flame arrester (40) connected to the turbocharger (38) thereby to receive the exhaust flow from the turbocharger and an after-treatment device (42) connected downstream of the flame arrester (40) to receive the exhaust flow from the flame arrester. The exhaust system (16) further extends to an exhaust conditioner 10 (44) configured to reduce the temperature of the exhaust flow.
