摘要:
Ammonia in a gas stream comprising oxygen and nitrogen may be effectively completely oxidized to a mixture of NO and NO2 for further processing to nitric acid. The gas stream is flowed over fine particles of La1-xSrxCoO3 and/or La1-xSrxMnO3, and/or La1-xSrxFeO3 where x=about 0.1, 0.2, or 0.3. The particles are supported as catalyst layers on gas stream-contacting surfaces of a flow-through catalyzed oxidation reactor. These relatively inexpensive perovskite-type materials may be used to promote oxidation of ammonia at temperatures below about 450° C. to about 500° C. to selectively produce a mixture of NO and NO2. This mixture is suitable for further oxidation to NO2 for adsorption into water to make nitric acid.

A method for monitoring performance of a passive selective catalytic reduction system includes operating the internal combustion engine in a preconditioning mode. Subsequent to the preconditioning, an air/fuel excursion is introduced into the exhaust gas feedstream and a signal output from a sensor monitoring the exhaust gas feedstream in the selective catalytic reduction system during the air/fuel excursion is monitored. An operating effectiveness is determined for the selective catalytic reduction system correlated to the signal output from the sensor monitoring the exhaust gas feedstream.

An internal combustion engine configured to operate in a compression-ignition combustion mode includes an exhaust aftertreatment system. The exhaust aftertreatment system includes a catalyst device fluidly coupled upstream of an ammonia-selective catalytic reduction device. The, catalyst device includes first, second, and third elements fluidly coupled in series. The first element includes a three-way catalytic element, the second element includes a NOx adsorber, and the third element includes an oxidation catalytic element.
摘要:
An exhaust gas aftertreatment system for treating an engine-out exhaust gas feedstream of a spark-ignition direct-injection engine includes a multi-stage catalytic converter comprising a converter inlet, a converter outlet, and a substrate having a first end associated with the converter inlet and a second end associated with the converter outlet. The substrate further includes a multiplicity of flow passages between the first and second ends of the substrate, a first surface location corresponding to the first end of the substrate, and a second surface location corresponding to the second end of the substrate. The first and second washcoat stages include washcoats formulated to generate hydrogen and ammonia from the engine-out exhaust gas feedstream. An ammonia-selective catalytic reduction device is downstream of the first and second washcoat stages.
摘要:
An exhaust aftertreatment system that receives an exhaust flow from a lean-burn engine and a method for treating the exhaust flow are described. The exhaust aftertreatment system may include a three-way-catalyst, an oxidation catalyst, and a NH3—SCR catalyst. The three-way-catalyst passively generates NH3 from native NOX contained in the exhaust flow when an A/F mixture supplied to the engine is cycled from lean to rich. The generated NH3 is then stored in the NH3—SCR catalyst to facilitate NOX reduction when the A/F mixture supplied to the engine is cycled back to lean. The oxidation catalyst is located upstream of the NH3—SCR catalyst and operates to lower the NO to NO2 molar ratio of the NOX fed to the NH3—SCR catalyst. The oxidation catalyst comprises perovskite oxide particles.
