    Abstract: A catalyst degradation detection apparatus includes an air-fuel ratio detector disposed downstream of a catalyst and configured to detect an air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas flowing out from the catalyst, and an electronic control unit configured to control an air-fuel ratio of inflow exhaust gas flowing into the catalyst and determine whether the catalyst is degraded. The electronic control unit is configured to execute degradation determination control that brings the air-fuel ratio of the inflow exhaust gas to an air-fuel ratio leaner or richer than a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. The electronic control unit is configured to determine whether precious metal of the catalyst is degraded based on the air-fuel ratio detected by the air-fuel ratio detector when an oxygen storage amount of the catalyst is varying in the degradation determination control.

    Abstract: When individually controlling a plurality of supply valves is not available, an object of the invention is to determine which of the plurality of supply valves is abnormal with high accuracy, while suppressing a cost increase. A first supply valve, a first selective reduction NOx catalyst, a second supply valve, a second selective reduction NOx catalyst and a NOx sensor are sequentially provided in an exhaust conduit. With a view to identifying which of abnormality of the first supply valve and abnormality of the second supply valve, an instruction is given to the first supply valve and the second supply valve to increase a supply amount of a reducing agent. This identification is based on a NOx concentration detected by the NOx sensor after elapse of a first specified time duration since an instruction time point that is a time point when this instruction is given.

    Abstract: The catalyst deterioration detection system 1 comprises an air-fuel ratio detection device 41 detecting an air-fuel ratio of an exhaust gas flowing out from the catalyst 20, an air-fuel ratio control part 71, and a deterioration judgment part 72. The air-fuel ratio control part is configured to perform a lean control making the air-fuel ratio of the inflowing exhaust gas leaner than a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio and a rich control making the air-fuel ratio of the inflowing exhaust gas richer than the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. The deterioration judgment part is configured to calculate an amplitude of an air-fuel ratio of an exhaust gas flowing out from the catalyst due to the lean control and the rich control based on an output of the air-fuel ratio detection device and judge that the catalyst is deteriorating if the amplitude is equal to or greater than a threshold value.

    Abstract: When an abnormality diagnosis of an SCR catalyst is carried out, diagnostic supply control is carried out in such a manner that the first estimated adsorption amount, which is an amount of adsorption of ammonia in the SCR catalyst at the time when the SCR catalyst is assumed to be in a predetermined abnormal state, becomes equal to or more than a first predetermined adsorption amount, and the second estimated adsorption amount, which is an amount of adsorption of ammonia in the SCR catalyst at the time when the SCR catalyst is assumed to be in a predetermined normal state, becomes smaller than a second predetermined adsorption amount. Then, supply decreasing control to decrease an amount of adsorption of ammonia in the SCR catalyst is carried out, after the end of the execution of the diagnostic supply control.

    Abstract: An additive amount of a reducing agent to a selective reduction-type NOx catalyst is optimized. An ammonia adsorption amount of the selective reduction-type NOx catalyst is estimated based on one or a plurality of prescribed parameters related to the ammonia adsorption amount and a specific ammonia adsorption amount that is an estimated value of the ammonia adsorption amount specified by at least one of a maximum value and a minimum value of an estimated value of the ammonia adsorption amount is estimated based on an error in the prescribed parameter, and when the specific ammonia adsorption amount is outside a target range of the ammonia adsorption amount, addition of an ammonia precursor or ammonia using an adding valve is controlled such that the specific ammonia adsorption amount returns to the target range.

    Abstract: An exhaust control system for an internal combustion engine comprises: a trapping capability acquisition part that obtains information regarding a PM trapping capability, based on a detection value of an exhaust sensor provided to detect a predetermined parameter relating to an exhaust gas flowing out of an SCRF; and a NOx reduction capability acquisition part obtains information regarding a NOx reduction capability, based on an amount of NOx in the exhaust gas flowing out of the SCRF. The exhaust control system determines and distinguishes between a trapping abnormal state in which a PM trapping function by the SCRF is failed and a sensor abnormal state in which a detection function of the predetermined parameter by the exhaust sensor is failed, based on the NOx reduction capability obtained by the NOx reduction capability acquisition part, when the trapping capability obtained by the trapping capability acquisition part is in a predetermined low trapping capability state. This allows for accurate abnormality determination with regard to the SCRF in the exhaust control system for the internal combustion engine having the SCRF.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may improve the accuracy of diagnosis in diagnosing whether an exhaust gas purification system having an SCR filter is faulty. It is determined that the exhaust gas purification system is faulty if the NOx removal rate with the SCR filter calculated using a measurement value of an NOx sensor is lower than or equal to a predetermined criterion removal rate. In the apparatus, a differential pressure change rate defined as the increase in a converted differential pressure value per unit increase in the filter PM deposition amount is calculated. The value of the criterion removal rate is set higher when the differential pressure change rate at the time when the measurement value of the NOx sensor is obtained is lower than a predetermined threshold than when the differential pressure change rate is higher than or equal to the predetermined threshold.
