Abstract:
An aftertreatment system utilizes chemical reactions to treat an exhaust gas flow. A device for use within an aftertreatment system includes a silver-based NOx storage catalyst and a zeolite. The silver-based NOx storage catalyst and the zeolite store NOx through a low temperature startup period of operation. In one embodiment, the zeolite includes a barium Y zeolite.
Abstract:
Provided is an improved selective catalytic reduction filtering (SCRF) device that separates reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from oxidation of soot, hydro-carbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO). The SCRF device has a diesel oxidation catalyst unit for oxidizing HC and CO and oxidizing diesel fuel to support DPF regenerations, and a SCR filtering unit, including at least one inlet channel and being connected to the diesel oxidation catalyst unit, for controlling (soot) emission, cleaning-up slipped HC and CO during a DPF regeneration, and reducing nitrogen oxides in the diesel exhaust gas. At least one inlet channel is coated with an ammonia-neutral oxidation catalyst, and at least one outlet channel is coated with a selected catalytic reduction catalyst.
