Abstract: An exhaust purification system of an internal combustion engine is provided with a hydrocarbon feed valve arranged in an engine exhaust passage and an exhaust purification catalyst for causing NOX contained in exhaust gas and reformed hydrocarbons to react. The exhaust purification catalyst reduces NOX if a concentration of inflowing hydrocarbons vibrates within a predetermined range of amplitude and within a predetermined range of period and increases the amount of storage of NOX if the vibration period of the concentration of hydrocarbons longer is than a predetermined range. When hydrocarbons are being fed from the hydrocarbon feed valve within the predetermined range of amplitude and the predetermined range of period, if the amount of adsorption of hydrocarbons in the exhaust purification catalyst exceeds a predetermined judgment value of the adsorption amount, at least one of reducing amount of feed of hydrocarbons and lengthening feed interval of hydrocarbons is performed.

Abstract: Inside of an engine exhaust passage, in order from an upstream side, a hydrocarbon feed valve oxidation catalyst exhaust purification catalyst, and NOX selective reduction catalyst are arranged. By lowering the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing into the exhaust purification catalyst by a predetermined period while maintaining it lean, the NOx is reduced in the exhaust purification catalyst and the NOX which was not reduced at the exhaust purification catalyst is reduced by the ammonia which is adsorbed at the NOX selective reduction catalyst. The air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing into the exhaust purification catalyst is sometimes switched from lean to rich. At this time, the ammonia which was generated at the exhaust purification catalyst is adsorbed at the NOX selective reduction catalyst.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to prevent an excessive temperature rise of a precatalyst in the case where the precatalyst is provided in the exhaust passage upstream of an exhaust gas purification apparatus and has a heat capacity smaller than that of the exhaust gas purification apparatus, and reducing agent is added from a reducing agent addition valve toward an upstream end surface of the precatalyst. According to the present invention, the reducing agent addition valve is located in such a way that the reducing agent added through it reaches the precatalyst in a liquid state. In the case where the level of activity of the precatalyst is higher than a specific level at the time when the addition of reducing agent through the reducing agent addition valve is performed so as to supply the reducing agent to the precatalyst and the exhaust gas purification apparatus, the reducing agent is added more intensively than in the case where the level of activity of the precatalyst is not higher than the specific level.
