    摘要: The present invention provides processes for checking the operability of a nitrogen oxide storage catalyst during operation of a lean burn engine. The processes of the present invention utilize a nitrogen oxide storage material, a catalytically active component and optionally an oxygen storage material. During lean burn engine operation, damage to the catalytically active components is detected if the nitrogen oxide storage capacity in the kinetically controlled temperature range is lowered and damage to the storage material is detected if the nitrogen oxide storage capacity is lowered in the thermodynamically controlled temperature range.

    摘要: A sulfur oxide storage material contains a magnesium-aluminum spinel (MgO.Al2O3) and can be used as a so-called “sulfur trap” to remove sulfur oxides from oxygen-containing exhaust gases of industrial processes. In particular, it can be used for the catalytic purification of exhaust gas from internal-combustion engines to remove the sulfur oxides from the exhaust gas in order to protect the exhaust gas catalysts from sulfur poisoning. The material displays a molar ratio of magnesium oxide to aluminum oxide in the range of over 1.1:1, and the magnesium oxide present in stoichiometric excess is homogeneously distributed in a highly disperse form in the storage material.

    摘要: A catalyst system for the treatment of exhaust gases from a diesel engine includes a first and a second catalyst reducing catalyst arranged in series in an exhaust gas treatment system. The first catalyst is located near the engine in a region of the exhaust gas treatment system in which the exhaust gas temperature reaches temperatures of more than 200° C. under full engine load. The second catalyst is located further from the engine in a region of the exhaust gas treatment system in which the exhaust gas temperature reaches a maximum of 500° C. under full engine load. The maximum nitrogen oxides reduction in the first catalyst takes place at a lower temperature than the maximum nitrogen oxides reduction in the second catalyst.

    摘要: An auxiliary heating system for a motor vehicle with an internal combustion engine. The auxiliary heating includes an emission control catalyst and a heat exchanger, integrated in the converter housing in front of and/or behind the catalyst, which provides the reaction heat released by the catalyst and the remaining heat of the exhaust gas to the heating of the passenger compartment. The heat generation may be increased by the injection of a fuel/air mixture before the catalyst and by using the catalyst as a catalytic burner and can be adapted to the heat requirements. The auxiliary heating of the invention prevents possible thermal damage of the catalyst during operation as a catalytic burner without many regulating elements by cooling the catalyst radiation. For this purpose, the heat exchanger is provided with an exchange surface which can freely exchange radiation with the radiant surface of the catalytic element.

    摘要: A process is disclosed for operating an exhaust gas treatment unit for an internal combustion engine which is operated with lean normalized air/fuel ratios over most of the operating period. The exhaust gas treatment unit contains a nitrogen oxides storage catalyst with an activity window .DELTA.T.sub.NOX for the storage of nitrogen oxides at normalized air/fuel ratios of greater than 1 and release of the nitrogen oxides at normalized air/fuel ratios of less than or equal to 1 and a sulfur trap, located upstream of the nitrogen oxides storage catalyst, with a sulfur desorption temperature T.sub.S,DeSOx above which the sulfates stored on the sulfur trap are decomposed at normalized air/fuel ratios of less than or equal to 1. The nitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas are stored on the nitrogen oxides storage catalyst and the sulfur oxides are stored on the sulfur trap at normalized air/fuel ratios greater than 1 and exhaust gas temperatures T.sub.K within the activity window T.sub.NOX, wherein at the same time the exhaust gas temperature just upstream of the sulfur trap is lower than its sulfur desorption temperature T.sub.S,DeSOx. By cyclic lowering of the normalized air/fuel ratio in the exhaust gas to less than 1 the stored nitrogen oxides are released again from the storage catalyst. After each predetermined number N.sub.1 of nitrogen oxides storage cycles, sulfur is removed from the sulfur trap. This takes place by raising the exhaust gas temperature just upstream of the sulfur trap to above its sulfur desorption temperature T.sub.S,DeSOx and also lowering the normalized air/fuel ratio in the exhaust gas to less than 1.
