摘要:
An internal combustion engine in which an SOx trap catalyst (13) for trapping SOx contained in the exhaust gas contains an oxygen adsorbing and releasing material (54) which can adsorb SO2 contained in the exhaust gas and an SOx storage material (55) which can store SOx in the form of sulfates. The SO2 which is contained in the exhaust gas is chemically adsorbed at the oxygen adsorbing and releasing material (54) without being oxidized. If the temperature of the SOx trap catalyst (13) becomes higher than the start temperature of adsorbed SO2 movement, the SO2 which is chemically adsorbed at the oxygen adsorbing and releasing material (54) is oxidized and stored in the form of sulfates in the SOx storage material (55).

The present detector for detecting sulfur components includes a storage portion for storing SOx and NOx in the exhaust gas passing through an exhaust passage, in which the more an amount of stored SOx increases, the more an amount of stored NOx decreases, and which does not release SOx but release NOx at a set temperature, and a temperature sensor, estimates the amount of stored SOx on the basis of a relationship between, after the storage portion becomes the set temperature by heating, a heating pattern of the storage portion and temperature change of the storage portion measured by the temperature sensor, and detects an integrated amount of SOx passing through the exhaust passage during a given period or an value on the basis of the integrated amount.

摘要:
An exhaust purification system of an internal combustion engine includes an NOX storage reduction catalyst device which is arranged in an engine exhaust passage. The NO storage reduction catalyst device stores SOX simultaneously with NOX. When the stored SOX amount exceeds a predetermined allowable amount, the SOX is made to be released by SOX release control which raises the temperature of the NOX catalyst device to the SOX releasable temperature, then makes the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas which flows into the NOX catalyst device the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio or rich. The NOX catalyst device has a residual SOX storage amount which finally remains even if performing SOX release control depending on the temperature of the NOX catalyst device when performing SOX release control. The system uses the residual SOX storage amount of the current SOX release control as the basis to calculate the SOX release speed at each timing in the current SOX release control.
摘要:
A temperature sensor includes temperature detecting means and at least one of a catalyst and an adsorbent applied to the surface of the temperature detecting means. At least one of the catalyst and the adsorbent catalyzes an exothermic reaction of a reactant in gas on the temperature detecting means. A temperature that is increased by the exothermic reaction is detected by the temperature detecting means. The catalytic efficiency for the exothermic reaction of at least one of the catalyst and the adsorbent is reduced by sulfur poisoning. The temperature sensor is disposed upstream of an exhaust purification system. Accordingly, it is determined that the temperature sensor is subjected to sulfur poisoning if the temperature detected by the temperature sensor is below a prescribed temperature.

摘要:
A SOx trap catalyst, an oxidation catalyst, a particulate filter, an aqueous urea supply valve, and a NOx selective reduction catalyst are arranged in order from upstream to downstream in an engine exhaust passage. It is determined whether a discharge concentration of hydrogen sulfide H2S will become equal to or greater than a preset maximum concentration when SOx is released from the SOx trap catalyst. If it is estimated that the discharge concentration of the hydrogen sulfide H2S will become equal to or greater than the maximum concentration when SOx is released, an adsorbed ammonia amount adsorbed on the NOx selective reduction catalyst is reduced before SOx is released so that the discharge concentration of the hydrogen sulfide H2S is less than the maximum concentration when SOx is released.
