Abstract:
Methods, systems, and vehicles are provided for estimating nitrogen oxide values for vehicles. In accordance with one embodiment, a system includes a memory and a processor. The memory is configured to store one or more kinetic models pertaining to a propulsion system for a vehicle. The processor is configured to at least facilitate obtaining a nitrogen value pertaining to a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) unit of the propulsion system, obtaining an initial nitrogen oxide measurement via a nitrogen oxide sensor of the propulsion system, using the nitrogen value as an input for the one or more kinetic models pertaining to the propulsion system, generating a kinetic model output from the one or more kinetic models, and estimating an updated value for the initial nitrogen oxide measurement based on the kinetic model output.
Abstract:
Ag/Al2O3 materials may be packaged in a suitable flow-through reactor, in combination with another material selected as a passive NOx adsorber material (PNA), both the silver material and the adsorber material being close coupled to the exhaust manifold of a diesel engine, and upstream of other catalytic devices, such as a diesel oxidation catalyst and a selective reduction catalyst for NOx. The silver catalyst material uses hydrogen in a cold-start engine exhaust and serves to oxidize NO to NO2 in the relatively low temperature, hydrocarbon-containing, exhaust during a short period following the engine cold start, and to temporarily store NOx during the start-up period. After the flowing exhaust gas stream has heated the PNA and the downstream catalytic devices, the silver yields its nitrogen oxides for conversion to nitrogen by the then-operating devices before NOx is discharged to the atmosphere.

Abstract:
A method for controlling a vehicle including an exhaust aftertreatment system for purifying exhaust gases from a compression-ignition engine includes monitoring vehicle operating parameters, determining whether the vehicle is stopped, determining whether the engine is commanded off, and determining whether the exhaust aftertreatment device is at a predetermined operating temperature. When the vehicle is stopped, the engine is commanded off and the exhaust aftertreatment device is at the predetermined operating temperature the engine is controlled in a run-on state for a predetermined period of time. The run-on state includes operating the engine in a throttled and fueled state.

A second exhaust aftertreatment device includes an ammonia-selective catalytic reduction catalyst fluidly coupled to a downstream outlet of the first exhaust aftertreatment device. A reductant injection system is configured to inject urea reductant into the exhaust gas feedstream between the first exhaust aftertreatment device and the second exhaust aftertreatment device.
Abstract:
Ag/Al2O3 materials may be packaged in a suitable flow-through reactor, close coupled to the exhaust manifold of a diesel engine, and upstream of other exhaust gas treatment devices, such as a diesel oxidation catalyst and a selective reduction catalyst for NOx. The silver/alumina catalyst material uses hydrogen in a cold-start engine exhaust and serves to oxidize NO to NO2 in the relatively low temperature, hydrocarbon-containing, exhaust during a short period following the engine cold start, and to temporarily store NOx during the start-up period. After the exhaust has heated downstream catalytic devices, the silver yields its nitrogen oxides for conversion to nitrogen by the then-operating devices before NOx is discharged to the atmosphere.

Abstract:
A Cu-amine complex of hydrated copper sulfate and ethylene diamine or an oligomer of ethylene diamine is employed in a direct (one-pot) synthesis of a copper-cation containing silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO) zeolite material having the Cu/SAPO-34 structure. The copper-amine complex is included in an aqueous gel of precursors of the SiO2, Al2O3, and P2O5 constituents, which are mixed, aged, and thermally treated to form the desired Cu/SAPO-34 structure. The synthesized Cu/SAPO-34 material is demonstrated to be an effective catalyst material in conversion of nitric oxide to nitrogen (using ammonia as a reductant) in synthetic exhaust streams characteristic of diesel engine and other lean-burn vehicle engine exhaust streams.
