The invention relates to a power generation system with a continuously operating fuel reformer. Preferably, the fuel reformer is either off, warming up, or operating with an essentially constant fueling rate. Some of the reformed fuel is intermittently used to regenerate a NOx trap that treats the exhaust of an internal combustion engine. Any reformed fuel not used for other purposes is supplied to a fuel cell. The fuel reformer does not shut down between NOx trap regeneration cycles except when the engine is also shut down. The invention substantially eliminates issues of reformer response time as they relate to NOx trap regeneration.
摘要:
A lean NOx trap is a diesel exhaust aftertreatment system is selectively denitrated based on a measure relating to the state and/or the performance of the exhaust aftertreatment system, or a portion thereof comprising the lean NOx trap, reaching a critical value. The critical value is varied according to the demands currently being place on the exhaust aftertreatment system. In one embodiment, the critical value is set based on engine speed-load information. The method regenerates more frequently when exhaust aftertreatment demands are high and less frequently when demands are low. The method improves aftertreatment performance while reducing aftertreatment fuel penalty.
摘要:
A lean NOX trap is a diesel exhaust aftertreatment system is selectively denitrated when a measure relating to NOX loading, remaining NOX storage capacity, or performance of the exhaust aftertreatment system or a portion thereof comprising the lean NOX trap reaches a critical value. The critical value is determined based in part on conduciveness of current conditions to regenerating the lean NOX trap. Accordingly, denitration is scheduled based on a balance between the urgency of the need to regenerate and conduciveness of current conditions to regeneration. The stopping point for regeneration can also be selected based on conduciveness of current conditions to regeneration. The method maintains exhaust aftertreatment performance while reducing regeneration fuel penalty.

One aspect of the invention relates to a particulate filter useful in treating exhaust from a diesel-power vehicle. The particulate filter comprises filter elements for removing particulate matter and an ammonia SCR catalyst. Ammonia can be produced during regeneration of an NOx adsorbant. The adsorbant can be contained in a separate device upstream of the particulate filter or be incorporated within the particulate filter. Another aspect of the invention relates to a method of cleaning exhaust comprising passing the exhaust over an NOx adsorber to adsorb a portion of NOx from the exhaust; passing the exhaust through a particulate filter to remove particulate matter from the exhaust; and removing a further portion of NOx from the exhaust by reducing it with ammonia over an ammonia SCR catalyst. Preferably, a catalyst contained within the adsorbant provides NO2 for continuously regenerating the particulate filter.
