摘要:
An apparatus for purifying an exhaust gas including particulate matters and flowing in an exhaust system includes a first catalyst, a second catalyst, a heater, an injector, a differential pressure sensor, and a controller. The second catalyst is an NOx sorbing-and-reducing catalyst, and is disposed on a downstream side of the first catalyst. The heater is for heating the first catalyst. The injector injects a liquid reducing agent into the exhaust gas, and is disposed on an upstream side of the first catalyst. The differential pressure sensor is for sensing a difference in pressure between inlet and outlet sides of the fist catalyst, and/or a difference in pressure between inlet and outlet sides of the second catalyst. The controller is for controlling at least the heater.

According to the present invention, SO X in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine is absorbed by a sulfate absorbent which absorbs SO X in the exhaust gas when the temperature is lower than a releasing temperature and releases the absorbed SO x when the temperature becomes higher than the releasing temperature. When the exhaust gas temperature increases during the operation of the engine and reaches the releasing temperature, the temperature of the exhaust gas flowing into the sulfate absorbent is further raised to a predetermined temperature by supplying fuel to the exhaust gas passage upstream of the sulfate absorbent. The ratio of SO 3 in the SO X mixture released from the sulfate absorbent changes in accordance with the temperature, and takes the highest value at a certain temperature (i.e., a peak temperature). Therefore, when the exhaust gas temperature is raised above the peak temperature, the ratio of SO 3 in the SO X mixture released from the sulfate absorbent decreases as the temperature increases. In the present invention, the above-noted predetermined temperature is selected in such a manner that the ratio of SO 3 at this predetermined temperature becomes lower than the ratio of SO 3 at the releasing temperature. Therefore, when SO X is released from the sulfate absorbent, the amount of SO 3 , i.e., the amount of particulate matter released into the atmosphere can be maintained at a low level.

The present invention is a method of solidifying sulfur component being the cause of "SOx poisoning" by use of a sulfur solidifier. The solidifier comprises a basic metal element. Since the sulfur solidifier comprises the above basic metal element, it can effectively solidify the sulfur component which are the cause of the SOx poisoning of the exhaust purifying catalyst, and thus ensure improvement in purification performance.

An NOx emission control device which maintains a high NOx emission reduction rate regardless of changes in reducer adsorbing performance includes an reducer adsorbing NOx catalyst for reducing a concentration of NOx under an oxygen-rich condition by means of the reducer. The amount of the reducer to be supplied to the NOx catalyst is calculated based on a parameter relating to the NOx catalyst so that the amount of the reducer to be supplied to the NOx catalyst is reduced when the reducer adsorbing performance of the NOx catalyst is low and the amount of the reducer to be supplied to the NOx catalyst is increased when the reducer adsorbing performance of the NOx catalyst is high.

An exhaust gas purifying device for an engine (1) comprises an exhaust gas purifying catalyst (19) arranged in the exhaust passage. The catalyst is capable of reducing NO X in the catalyst in the oxidizing atmosphere, and comprises a reducing agent adsorbent adsorbing a reducing agent in the inflowing exhaust gas therein when the pressure in the adsorbent becomes higher, and desorbing the adsorbed reducing agent therefrom when the pressure in the adsorbent becomes lower. An exhaust gas control valve (23) is disposed in the exhaust passage downstream of the catalyst. When both the engine load and the engine speed are low, the opening of the valve is made smaller to increase the pressure in the catalyst. At this time, hydrocarbon is fed to the catalyst, and is then adsorbed in the catalyst. When the engine load or the engine speed becomes high, or the cumulative amount of hydrocarbon fed to the catalyst becomes larger than a predetermined amount, the valve is made fully open to reduce the pressure in the catalyst. At this time, the adsorbed hydrocarbon is desorbed from the catalyst, and then reduces NO X in the catalyst.
