    摘要: In an apparatus having a combustion engine and an emissions system including a catalytic converter and a metal oxide catalyst disposed downstream of the catalytic converter, a method of controlling a chemical transformation of hydrogen sulfide in an emissions stream to a less-noxious sulfur-containing compound is disclosed. The method includes reacting the hydrogen sulfide with the metal oxide catalyst to form a metal sulfide, monitoring a saturation of the metal oxide catalyst with the metal sulfide, and when a predetermined saturation of metal sulfide on the metal oxide is reached, changing an air/fuel ratio supplied to the combustion engine.

    摘要: A method for remediating a NOx-containing lean diesel emission includes providing a LNT/SCR catalyst system including a SCR catalyst and a first and second LNT. The SCR catalyst is disposed downstream of the second LNT which is disposed downstream of the first LNT. The lean NOx-containing diesel emission is introduced to the first LNT with the NOx being absorbed on to the first LNT forming a substantially NOx-free lean diesel emission. An exotherm generating agent is introduced to the substantially NOx-free diesel emission between the first LNT and the second LNT to form a reactive lean diesel emission. The reactive lean diesel emission is introduced to the second LNT generating a quantity of heat effective for desorbing absorbed NOx. A reducing agent is introduced into the desorbed NOx between the second LNT and SCR catalyst. The desorbed NOx diesel emission is remediated in the SCR catalyst.

    摘要: A catalytic treatment device diagnostic for an automotive exhaust system having at least two catalytic treatment devices wherein reduced oxygen storage capacity of each of the devices may be diagnosed without significant loss in engine air/fuel ratio control precision by varying the source of an actual air/fuel ratio feedback signal from a sensor positioned upstream of the devices during normal operation to a sensor mounted downstream of at least one of the devices during a diagnostic period. Measurable change in the oxygen content of exhaust gas passing through each of such devices then becomes available for analysis during the diagnostic period.
