    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to exhaust treatment systems and engine systems. In one implementation, an engine system comprises an engine comprising an intake manifold and an exhaust manifold, the engine configured to combust a fuel-air mixture received via the intake manifold and produce a flow of exhaust gases via the exhaust manifold. The engine system also comprises a turbocharger comprising a turbine, an exhaust passageway fluidly connecting the exhaust manifold of the engine to the turbine and an intake passageway fluidly connected to the intake manifold of the engine for supplying the fuel-air mixture, a catalyzed member positioned along the exhaust passageway between the engine and the turbine, and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) loop fluidly connected downstream of the catalyzed member and fluidly connected to the exhaust passageway and the intake passageway.

    Abstract: In one aspect, an exhaust treatment system includes a first particulate filter that has an oxidation catalyst and receives an exhaust stream from an engine. The first particulate filter has a first filter body that defines a plurality of flow-through channels, each open on the inlet and outlet sides of the first filter body. The first filter body also defines a plurality of wall-flow channels, each open on one of the inlet and outlet sides and closed on the other of the inlet and outlet sides. The system also has a second particulate filter that receives the exhaust stream from the first particulate filter. The second particulate filter has a second filter body that defines a plurality of wall-flow channels, each open on one of the inlet and outlet sides of the second particulate filter and closed on the other of the inlet and outlet sides of the second particulate filter.

    Abstract: An internal combustion engine operates on a six-stroke combustion cycle including a first compression stroke, a first power stroke, a second compression stroke, and a second power stroke. A first fuel charge is introduced to a combustion chamber of the engine at a first fuel rate during the first compression and/or first power stroke to produce lean exhaust gasses. A second fuel charge is also introduced to the combustion chamber during the second compression and/or second power stroke to normally produce lean exhaust gasses. Periodically, the second fuel charge can be increased to a second fuel rate to produce stoichiometric rich exhaust gasses. A lean nitrogen oxide trap can be disposed in an exhaust system associated with the engine to temporarily trap nitrogen oxides. Once saturated, the LNT can be periodically regenerated by production of the rich exhaust gasses.

    Abstract: An apparatus for detecting urea deposits in an exhaust pipe of an internal combustion engine is provided, where the urea is introduced into the exhaust pipe in an aqueous urea solution via a nozzle. The apparatus comprises at least one radiation receiver which, in use, is located within the exhaust pipe downstream of the nozzle. The apparatus further comprises an electronic control unit in communication with the receiver, wherein the receiver communicates radiation data to the control unit which allows the control unit to establish whether deposits have formed within the exhaust pipe. A control valve is also provided which controls flow of the solution to the nozzle in response to signals from the control unit. A method of detecting urea deposits in an exhaust pipe of an internal combustion engine is also provided, as in an automotive vehicle incorporating the aforementioned apparatus.

    Abstract: A method and system of operating an internal combustion engine on a six-stroke cycle utilizes an after-treatment system to reduce emissions such as nitrogen oxides. The method and system introduce a first fuel charge to a combustion chamber and combusts the first fuel charge to produce a first stoichiometric lean condition. The method and system next introduce a second fuel charge and combust the second fuel charge to produce a second stoichiometric lean conditions. The exhaust gasses are then directed to a selective catalytic reduction catalyst with a reductant agent to reduce the nitrogen oxides to nitrogen and water.
