摘要:
When a nitrogen oxide storage catalyst is being regenerated, the regeneration may be terminated for example as a result of a premature load change in the engine, which can lead to incomplete emptying of the storage catalyst. The residual filling level which remains in the catalyst following an incomplete regeneration of this nature is used as the starting value for calculation of the filling level during the next storage phase. After incomplete regeneration, the nitrogen oxide conversion rate is initially greater than would be expected, on account of the residual filling level. By taking this increased conversion rate into account when calculating the filling level during the storage phase, it is possible to further improve the accuracy of the calculation.

摘要:
The present invention describes an exhaust-gas purification system for an internal combustion engine made of an oxidation catalyst arranged close to the engine, a subsequent hydrocarbon adsorber and a particulate filter arranged downstream thereof and provided with another oxidation catalyst. The oxidation catalyst ensures that emission limits with respect to carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons are satisfied in normal driving mode. During operating states with exhaust-gas temperatures below about 200° C., the oxidation catalyst can no longer oxidize carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons. Instead, the hydrocarbons are adsorbed by the hydrocarbon adsorber during these operating phases. In order to initiate the periodical regeneration of the particulate filter, the exhaustgas temperature of the internal combustion engine is raised by engine modifications. The increased exhaust-gas temperature leads to desorption of the previously stored hydrocarbons, which are then burned at the oxidation catalyst of the particulate filter, thereby supporting the regeneration of the particulate filter.

A nitrogen oxide storage material which is based on storage compounds of elements selected from the group consisting of magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, the alkali metals, the rare earth metals and mixtures thereof and has a homogeneous magnesium-aluminium mixed oxide doped with cerium oxide as support material for the storage compounds is described. Nitrogen oxide storage catalysts using this storage material display a broad working range, a high storage efficiency and good ageing resistance.
摘要:
This invention relates to a method of operating a catalyst for treating the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine, the catalyst comprising, in addition to catalytically active noble metals, also storage components for storing hydrocarbons. During engine operating phases at low exhaust-gas temperatures, such a catalyst stores the hydrocarbons contained in the exhaust gas without burning them. When the exhaust-gas temperature rises, these hydrocarbons are desorbed again and then oxidized at the catalytically active noble metals. This process can lead to uncontrolled, vigorous combustion of the hydrocarbons stored on the catalyst and, therefore, damage to the catalyst. According to the invention, this damage is avoided by continuously calculating the respective loading of the storage components with hydrocarbons and repeatedly regenerating the storage components depending on the loading by temporarily raising the exhaust-gas temperature before damage to the catalyst can occur.

The present invention is directed to a particle filter to remove soot from the exhaust gas of a diesel engine. The particle filter contains a catalytically active coating on a filter body to accelerate burn-off during a regeneration phase of the soot particles collected on the filter. The particle filter comprises a catalytic coating containing compounds of barium, compounds of magnesium, and at least one element of the platinum group metals. The invention is further directed to a process for accelerated combustion of soot particles collected on the filter from lean exhaust gas of a diesel engine in which the soot particles have a soot ignition temperature and the particle filter is actively regenerated from time to time by raising the temperature of the particle filter above the soot ignition temperature and burning off the soot particles.

The invention relates to a catalyst arrangement for purifying the exhaust gases of internal combustion engines operated under lean conditions. It is proposed that a thinwalled, porous carrier be coated on one side with a nitrogen oxide storage catalyst and on the other side with an SCR catalyst. When the exhaust gas is passed through the catalytic coatings and the support material, a significant improvement in the nitrogen oxide conversion is achieved compared to a series arrangement of the catalysts on separate carriers. Wall flow filters have been found to be useful as thin-walled carriers.
摘要:
The invention provides a process for reducing the amounts of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and soot particles in the lean exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine using a particle filter, wherein the soot particles have a soot ignition temperature TZ and the particle filter is regenerated from time to time by raising the temperature of the particle filter to above the soot ignition temperature and burning the soot particles, wherein the temperature of the filter is increased to the temperature required to initiate soot ignition by burning additional fuel on the catalytic coating when the exhaust gas back pressure reaches a predetermined value. The process is characterised in that the particle filter is provided with a catalytic coating comprising a first group of components for reducing the ignition temperature of soot, said first group of components contains at least one oxygen storage component and at least one platinum group metal selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium and rhodium. In a preferred embodiment of the process the catalytic coating further comprises a second group of components for oxidising carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons, said second group of components comprises at least a support material selected from the group consisting of aluminium oxide, silicon oxide, titanium oxide, zirconium oxide and zeolite and at least one platinum group metal selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium and rhodium deposited on said support materials.
