Abstract:
An aftertreatment system comprises an oxidation catalyst assembly defining a channel for an exhaust gas to flow therethrough. The channel has an inlet and an outlet. The oxidation catalyst assembly includes a substrate, an oxidation catalyst, and a sulfur catalyst. A SCR system is positioned downstream of the oxidation catalyst assembly. The SCR system includes at least one catalyst formulated to reduce the exhaust gas. The oxidation catalyst assembly can be layered such that the oxidation catalyst is layered on the substrate. Moreover, the sulfur catalyst is layered on the oxidation catalyst so that the sulfur catalyst defines the channel.
Abstract:
Implementations described herein relate to features for an integrated aftertreatment system. In one implementation, an integrated aftertreatment system comprises a casing that includes a mating flange having a first constant diameter and a catalyst component configured to mate to the mating flange of the casing. The catalyst component includes a canned body including a first portion sized to a second constant diameter to mate with the first constant diameter of the mating flange. In another implementation, an integrated aftertreatment system comprises a casing, a catalyst component positioned within the casing, a particulate filter having an outer casing with an outlet, and a particulate filter joint coupled to the outer casing of the particulate filter at the outlet. An end of the particulate filter joint is aligned with an end of the particulate filter.
Abstract:
A system and method for monitoring filtering condition in an aftertreatment system comprises measuring a first pressure upstream of a first particulate filter in the aftertreatment system. A second pressure downstream of the first particulate filter and upstream of a second particulate filter in the aftertreatment system is measured. A third pressure downstream of the second particulate filter is also measured. A difference in pressure between the second pressure and the third pressure is determined which corresponds to a filtering condition of the first particulate filter. The difference in pressure is compared with a predetermined threshold. If the difference in pressure exceeds the predetermined threshold the failure of the first particulate filter is identified.
Abstract:
A selective catalytic reduction system may include a single housing defining a single centerline axis. The selective catalytic reduction system may also include a diesel particulate filter disposed within the single housing and having a DPF center axis aligned with the single centerline axis. The selective catalytic reduction system may also include an SCR catalyst disposed within the single housing and having a center axis aligned with the single centerline axis. In some implementations, the diesel particulate filter may include one or more SiC filters. In some implementations, the SCR catalyst may include one or more extruded SCR catalysts.
Abstract:
Nitrogen oxide multiplexing systems are provided. Various embodiments provide for systems comprising an aftertreatment component configured to treat exhaust exiting an engine, a sensor, a conduit, and a switching device. The sensor is configured to detect nitrogen oxide in the exhaust from both upstream of and downstream of an aftertreatment component. The conduit has a first end positioned upstream of the aftertreatment component and a second end communicable with the sensor positioned downstream of the aftertreatment component. The conduit receives a sample of the exhaust flowing from upstream of the aftertreatment component through the first end and delivers the sample of the exhaust to the sensor through the second end. The switching device is connected to the conduit and configurable to selectively prevent the flow of exhaust upstream of the aftertreatment component from reaching the sensor.
Abstract:
An aftertreatment system includes an exhaust reductant tank configured to store an exhaust reductant. A filter is fluidically coupled to the exhaust reductant tank. The aftertreatment system includes a hydrocarbon detection device configured to indicate the presence of a hydrocarbon in the exhaust reductant. A catalyst is included in the system and configured to treat the exhaust reductant flowing through the system. The hydrocarbon detection device can include a hydrophobic paper, and can be disposed in the filter.
Abstract:
An improved NO x sensor with an NH 3 oxidation catalyst. A sensor module may include a support component, a NO x sensing material positioned on the support component, and an NH 3 oxidation catalyst. The NH 3 oxidation catalyst may be layered on top of the NO x sensing material or the NH 3 oxidation catalyst may be positioned upstream of the NO x sensing material such that the NH 3 oxidation catalyst selectively converts NH 3 to N 2 while permitting NO x through to the NO x sensing material.
Abstract:
Exhaust after-treatment systems and methods are disclosed. An example system includes a selective catalytic reduction on filter (SCRF) and a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst positioned downstream of the SCRF. The system also includes a first reductant doser positioned upstream of the SCRF and a second reductant doser positioned downstream of the SCRF and upstream of the SCR catalyst. The system further includes first and second nitrogen oxide (NO x ) sensors positioned upstream of the first reductant doser, a third NO x sensor positioned downstream of the SCRF and upstream of the second reductant doser, and a catalyst positioned upstream of the first reductant doser.
Abstract:
A sensor probe for an exhaust system including a sensor body, a sensor cup, and a fluid shield. The sensor body defines a conduit and having a plurality of apertures formed through a sidewall of the sensor body. The sensor cup is coupled to an end of the conduit of the sensor body and is in fluid communication with the conduit. The sensor cup includes an outlet formed therein. The fluid shield may be integrally coupled to the sensor cup and positioned relative to the outlet formed in the sensor cup such that the fluid shield deflects fluid away from the outlet.
Abstract:
System, apparatus, and methods are disclosed for enabling a quality diagnostic of an aqueous urea solution (AUS) of an exhaust system when the AUS is outgassed. Systems, apparatus, and methods are also disclosed for disabling an output of a quality condition of the AUS in response at least in part to detecting that an AUS fill event of an AUS storage tank has occurred.
