    Abstract: An on-board vehicle reservoir containing an ammonia/organic solvent solution may be associated with a phase separator configured to isolate ammonia from the solution. The ammonia may be introduced into an exhaust gas stream of an internal combustion engine to function as a catalytic reductant. Ammonia may be employed to generate hydrogen via catalytic decomposition of ammonia, and the hydrogen may be introduced into an exhaust gas stream to aid catalytic reactions such as catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) and/or hydrocarbon (HC) and/or reduction of nitrogen oxides (NO); for instance during a cold-start period.

    Abstract: The disclosure provides a monolithic wall-flow filter catalytic article including a substrate having an aspect ratio of from about 1 to about 20, and having a functional coating composition disposed on the substrate, the functional coating composition including a first sorbent composition, an oxidation catalyst composition, and optionally, a second sorbent composition. The monolithic wall-flow filter catalytic article may be in a close-coupled position close to the engine. The disclosure further provides an integrated exhaust gas treatment system including the monolithic wall-flow filter catalytic article and may additionally include a flow-through monolith catalytic article. The flow-through monolith catalytic article includes a substrate having a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) coating composition disposed thereon. The integrated exhaust gas treatment system simplifies the traditional four-article system into a two-article Catalyzed Soot Filter (CSF) plus Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) CSF+SCR arrangement.

    Abstract: The invention provides an emission control system for treatment of an exhaust gas stream of an engine, including an engine producing an exhaust gas stream; an SCR catalyst unit downstream from the engine and in fluid communication with the exhaust gas stream; and an ammonia generation system comprising a reservoir containing ammonium hydroxide and an ammonia injector, wherein the reservoir is in fluid communication with the ammonia injector and the ammonia injector is in fluid communication with the exhaust gas stream upstream of the SCR catalyst unit. A method of treating an exhaust gas stream of an engine is also provided, including the steps of heating ammonium hydroxide to produce gaseous ammonia and transferring the gaseous ammonia through an ammonia injector into the exhaust gas stream such that the gaseous ammonia disperses within the exhaust gas stream upstream of a SCR catalyst unit.
