Provided is a method for diagnosing exhaust sensors, where at least one substance resulting from combustion is reduced by an additive. A first sensor intended to measure an occurrence of said substance upstream said supply of additive, and a second sensor intended to measure an occurrence of said substance downstream said supply of additive. The method comprises: determining whether the locations of said first and second sensors are reversed by: determining if a second measurement value of said second sensor exceeds a corresponding first measurement value of said first sensor at least to a first extent, and when this condition occurs, determining that the locations of said first and second sensors sensor are reversed, said measurement values are determined when a supply of additive is set to obtain at least a first reduction of said at least one substance to be reduced.

Described and depicted is a gas scrubber, in particular for desulphurising flue gases, preferably for installation on a ship, having a scrubber housing and a gas pipe arranged underneath the scrubber housing for guiding the gas to be scrubbed in the scrubber housing, wherein the scrubber housing has a scrubber chamber delimited by a scrubber base, a scrubber head and a scrubber shell provided between the scrubber base and the scrubber head. In order to achieve a more reliable operation, it is provided that a gas supply for the lateral introduction of gas via at least one opening into the scrubber chamber is provided in the region of the scrubber shell.

Methods and systems are provided for implementing fluid injection through a cylinder valve seat. The engine system may include a cylinder valve with a valve head mating with a valve seat when the valve is closed. The valve seat includes an injection orifice blocked by the valve head when the cylinder valve is closed and unblocked when the cylinder valve is opened.

Methods and systems are provided for a particulate filter comprising a pretreatment. In one example, a method may include applying a pretreatment to an unused particulate filter, wherein the particulate filter is subjected to incomplete oxidation conditions following application of the pretreatment.

A gas turbine engine system is equipped with a tempering system for a selective catalyst reduction system. The subject tempering system for a selective catalyst reduction system comprises a tempering compartment equipped with a plurality of relatively high temperature environment self-supporting pipes, and optionally, a plurality of flow vanes.

Methods and system are provided for an arrangement having a combustion engine producing an exhaust gas flow, and an exhaust system connected to the combustion engine for receiving the exhaust gas flow, having a particle filter as exhaust gas aftertreatment device, and a feed device positioned to introduce a micro-organism capable of breaking down carbon-containing compounds directly to an exhaust passage receiving the exhaust gas flow.

The present invention relates to use of a lubrication oil that forms water-soluble ash when combusted in an engine system, where the engine system comprises an internal combustion engine; an exhaust gas system comprising a diesel particulate filter to capture particulate matter from the exhaust gases, including the water-soluble ash; and an exhaust gas conduit to lead exhaust gases from the internal combustion engine to the exhaust gas system, and to collect condensed water formed by a cold start and/or a cold operation of the internal combustion engine and lead the condensed water through the diesel particulate filter, thereby dissolving and removing the water-soluble ash from the diesel particulate filter.

One object is to provide an aldehyde decomposition catalyst, and an exhaust gas treatment apparatus and an exhaust gas treatment method using the aldehyde decomposition catalyst that achieve low cost and sufficient aldehyde decomposition performance with a small amount of the catalyst. An aldehyde decomposition catalyst of the present invention is made of a zeolite in a cation form NH.sub.4 having a structure selected from MFI and BEA and carrying at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Cu, Mn, Ce, Zn, Fe, and Zr.

A system includes an exhaust conduit coupled, at least first end of the exhaust conduit, to an internal combustion; a catalytic converter coupled to a second end of the exhaust conduit; and electromagnetic wave source configured to emit electromagnetic energy; and a wave guide, coupled at a first end to the electromagnetic wave source and at a second end to the exhaust conduit, and extending between the electromagnetic wave source and the exhaust conduit. The electromagnetic wave source is configured to provide the electromagnetic energy, via the wave guide, to exhaust gas traveling through the exhaust conduit.

Provided is an injection device capable of suppressing the deposition of white products and performing an exhaust gas purification treatment. This injection device is provided with: an injection unit which is provided upstream of a selective reduction-type catalyst device provided inside an exhaust pipe constituting an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine, and injects a urea aqueous solution or a diethylamine aqueous solution; a determination unit which determines whether white products derived from the urea aqueous solution injected by the injection part are deposited inside the exhaust pipe; and an injection control unit which controls the injection part to inject the diethylamine aqueous solution when the determination unit has determined that the white products were deposited.
