摘要:
An internal combustion engine in which an SOx trap catalyst for trapping SOx contained in the exhaust gas is comprised of an upstream side catalyst and a downstream side catalyst into which the exhaust gas flowing out from the upstream side catalyst flows. The SOx storing material of the upstream side catalyst is mainly comprised of an alkali earth metal, while the SOx storing material of the downstream side catalyst is mainly comprised of an alkali metal.

An exhaust purification system of an internal combustion engine has a selective reduction type NOX catalyst device which can hold ammonia and a storage reduction type NOX catalyst device which is arranged at an upstream side of the selective reduction type NOX catalyst device, which makes an air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas which flows into the storage reduction type NOX catalyst device change from a lean air-fuel ratio to a rich air-fuel ratio for starting an ammonia generation period, and which makes an air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas which flows into the storage reduction type NOX catalyst device change from a rich air-fuel ratio to a lean air-fuel ratio for ending the ammonia generation period.
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.

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).
摘要:
The exhaust purification system of an internal combustion engine is provided with an NOX selective reduction catalyst which is arranged in an engine exhaust passage and which has the function of absorbing NOX which is contained in exhaust gas when an air-fuel ratio of inflowing exhaust gas is lean, releasing the absorbed NOX when the air-fuel ratio of the inflowing exhaust gas becomes a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio or rich, and selectively reducing the NOX and with a fuel addition valve which feeds fuel to the NOX selective reduction catalyst. In the case of the region near the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio in the region where the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing into the NOX selective reduction catalyst is lean, the fuel addition valve is used to feed fuel to the NOX selective reduction catalyst to selectively reduce the NOX.
摘要:
An exhaust gas purification filter that is suitable for arrangement in an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine and for collecting particulate matter contained in exhaust gas, comprises: exhaust gas inflow passages and exhaust gas outflow passages that are arranged alternately; and porous partitions that separate the exhaust gas inflow passages and the exhaust gas outflow passages from each other. Each of the partitions is divided into a coated zone in which a surface of a partition base is coated with a coating layer having a smaller average pore diameter than an average pore diameter of the partition base and a non-coated zone that is located on a downstream side of the coated zone and in which a surface of the partition base is not coated with the coating layer.
摘要:
A wall flow type particulate filter is arranged inside the exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine where combustion is performed under an excess of oxygen. The particulate filter carries a solid acid. The solid acid has an acid strength which is higher than the acid strength of sulfurous acid and lower than the acid strength of sulfuric acid. To remove the ash from the particulate filter, ash atomization processing for rendering the state of the particulate filter a state where the exhaust gas which flows into the particulate filter is lowered in concentration of oxygen and the particulate filter is raised in temperature is temporarily performed.

摘要:
A method of removing ash from a wall flow type particulate filter which is arranged in an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine in which combustion is performed in an excess of oxygen for trapping particulate matter in exhaust gas, using a solid acid which is carried on the particulate filter, renders the state of the particulate filter a state where the exhaust gas which flows into the particulate filter is lowered in concentration of oxygen and the particulate filter is raised in temperature, and then renders the state of the particulate filter a state where the exhaust gas which flows into the particulate filter in an oxidizing atmosphere contains SOx.
