PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device and a method for exhaust-emission control of an internal combustion engine provided with a NOx catalyst in an exhaust path in which the NOx catalyst can be regenerated favorably from SOx poisoning irrespective of the operation condition of the internal combustion engine. SOLUTION: An air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas is controlled firstly to a 1st predetermined air-fuel ratio at which the volume of discharged smoke is set at an allowable upper limit. Then, the exhaust ratio is intermittently controlled to a 2nd predetermined air-fuel ratio which is overrich richer than the 1st air- fuel ratio enabling the NOx catalyst to recover from SOx poisoning, and the temperature of the NOx catalyst is controlled in the range of predetermined temperatures in which the catalyst can be recovered from SOx poisoning and the degradation of the NOx catalyst is not accelerated.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a diesel engine lubricated with fuel such as diesel oil, for lubricating an engine lubrication system or the like, early consuming fuel susceptible to mixing of a dirty component such as soot therein, and efficiently cleaning exhaust. SOLUTION: The diesel engine 1 lubricated with fuel such as diesel oil has a fuel adding means (fuel adding valve 25) for adding the fuel to a diesel catalyst 24 disposed to an exhaust system. The fuel added by the fuel adding means 25 functions as additive for NO x reduction or additive of increasing catalyst temperature in the diesel catalyst 24. Since the fuel containing soot or the like supplied to the engine body 7 of the diesel engine 1 lubricated with fuel such as diesel oil can be consumed early, the effect on a component of an injection system such as an injection pump and a fuel injection valve is mitigated.
