    摘要: A catalyst for purifying exhaust gases of a diesel engine. The catalyst contains two functional layers superimposed on an inert supporting body, whereby the first layer, which is situated directly on the supporting body, has a nitrogen oxide storage function and the second layer, which is in direct contact with the exhaust gas, has a catalytic function. The second functional layer additionally has a hydrocarbon-storage function and its catalytic function is provided by catalytically active noble metals of the platinum group which are deposited in highly dispersed form on finely divided, acidic carrier materials. Nitrogen oxides in the oxygen-rich exhaust gas of a diesel engine can be converted with optimal utilization of the reductive constituents contained in the exhaust gas. For this purpose, no reducing agents going beyond the reductive components (carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons) which are contained as a consequence of incomplete combustion need to be added to the exhaust gas. Nevertheless, rates of conversion in respect of the nitrogen oxides are obtained, averaged over practical driving cycles, which lie distinctly above the rates of conversion of conventional reduction catalysts.

    摘要: A process of operating a nitrogen oxides storage catalyst of an exhaust gas treatment system is described. The process relates to the cycling of the normalized air/fuel ratio &lgr;-value of the exhaust gas exiting the engine, in which a lambda value greater than 1 represents oxygen-rich, lean burn conditions in which a sorption phase for the sorption of nitrogen oxides takes place; and in which a lambda value less than 1 represents oxygen-poor, rich burn conditions in which a desorption and conversion phase for the desorption and conversion of nitrogen oxides takes place. The &lgr;-value of the exhaust gas downstream from the storage catalyst is monitored during the desorption and conversion phase to determine the end of the desorption and conversion phase based on the &lgr;-value falling below a predetermined threshold value. Advantages of the process described include the ability to distinguish permanent from temporary damage to the nitrogen oxides storage catalyst, the ability to compensate for the slow deterioration in storage capacity, and the ability to determine when the storage capacity of the catalyst falls below a certain minimum capacity after which the storage catalyst must be either replaced or thermally treated while still installed in the exhaust gas treatment system.

    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 process for reducing the nitrogen oxides content of the exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine includes treating the exhaust gas in an electric gas discharge such that at least one of nitrogen dioxide or nitric acid are formed from nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas; storing the nitrogen dioxides and/or the nitric acid in the form of nitrates on a nitrogen oxides storage material during phases when the engine operates with a greater than a stoichiometric air/fuel ratio (i.e., the storage phase); decomposing the nitrates to give nitrogen oxides during brief phases when the engine operates with a less than the stoichiometric air/fuel ratio (i.e., the desorption phase); and reducing the nitrogen oxides which are released from the storage material to nitrogen. The nitrogen oxides storage material may be located in an electric gas discharge zone, and the exhaust gas may be passed through the discharge and then over 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.
