Method for operating a particle filter
A method for operating a particle filter of a vehicle includes creating an ash to be introduced into a filter body of the particle filter by arranging a carrier material of an ash former on an input side of an end face of the filter body, as viewed in a flow direction of an exhaust gas through the particle filter, and combusting the carrier material, where a non-combustible constituent of the ash former is arranged on the carrier material. The created ash is then introduced into the filter body of the particle filter.

Method and apparatus to supply water to a tank of an exhaust system provided with exhaust gas after-treatment for a combustion engine
An exhaust system provided with exhaust gas after-treatment for a combustion engine comprising an exhaust pipe and a pumping device, which is buried inside the tank, from which it draws so as to feed a water solution of urea under pressure to an electromagnetic injector; the tank is supplied with urea powder and water, which are mixed on the inside so as to obtain a water solution of urea with a variable concentration; and a water supply circuit to supply water to the tank, which is provided with a first pipe, which draws the water from a basin and is regulated by a first valve, which allows water to be introduced into the tank, if necessary, or to be drained to the surrounding environment when the water quantity already contained in the tank is sufficient.
Exhaust aftertreatment component with heat exchanger
An exhaust component includes a housing defining an internal cavity, at least one exhaust aftertreatment component positioned within the internal cavity, and a heat exchanger. The housing has an inlet configured to receive engine exhaust gases and an outlet configured to direct the engine exhaust gasses into a tailpipe. A reductant source is associated with the housing and produces ammonia to mix with engine exhaust gases entering the exhaust aftertreatment component. The heat exchanger is positioned within the internal cavity to reduce a temperature of the engine exhaust gases exiting the outlet.
Device to supply an internal combustion engine with water coming from a tank of an exhaust system provided with exhaust gas after-treatment
A device to supply an internal combustion engine with water comprising one single tank of an exhaust system provided with exhaust gas after-treatment; the tank is divided, on the inside, into a first powder urea storage area and a second water collecting area, and wherein the powder urea and the water are mixed inside the tank so as to obtain a water solution of urea with a variable concentration, the device comprises at least one second electromagnetic injector, which is designed to inject water into the internal combustion engine, and a second pumping device, which is drowned inside the tank and draws from the second water collecting area in order to supply water under pressure to said at least one second electromagnetic injector.
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR INJECTING A MIXING GAS INTO AN EXHAUST LINE
A device for injecting a mixing gas into an exhaust gas exhaust line of an engine, the device comprising: one or more inlet openings, a plurality of walls comprising: o a first wall (31) and; o a second wall (32) having one or more outlet openings and being arranged downstream of the first wall, and means (36) for injecting the mixing gas between the first wall and the second wall, so as to allow the mixing gas and the exhaust gases to be mixed between the first wall and the second wall.
Combustion engine exhaust gas purifying facility
An exhaust gas purifying facility of a combustion engine includes: a marine combustion engine; a reducing device for feeding urea water into an exhaust gas in an exhaust gas line of the marine combustion engine; and a generation device for generating the urea water from urea powder. The generation device includes a storage-generation tank device and an adjustment tank device capable of adjusting the density of the urea water. The storage-generation tank device has a storage-generation tank for storing the urea powder and feeding water to the urea powder for dissolution. The adjustment tank device has an adjustment tank for storing the urea water withdrawn from the storage-generation tank.
METHOD OF COMPACTING ASH DEPOSITED IN A PARTICULATE FILTER BY PROVIDING A LOW-TEMPERATURE MELTING SALT TO SAID FILTER
The present disclosure relates to a method of compacting an ash deposited in a particulate filter for a vehicle exhaust gas system, the method comprising the steps of: a) providing a low-temperature melting salt to the particulate filter, thereby forming a mixture of the ash and the low-temperature melting salt: and b) bringing the particulate filter to a compaction temperature, thereby compacting the mixture of the ash and the low-temperature melting salt. The disclosure further relates to engine oils, dosage products, engine systems and vehicles for implementing such a method.
DEVICE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF WATER ON BOARD A VEHICLE AND METHOD TO CONTROL SAID DEVICE
A device for the production of water on board a vehicle comprising a duct, where an air flow flows; a tank, which contains a quantity of adsorbing material and is arranged along the duct; a first and a second adjustment valve for the adjustment of the duct, which are arranged upstream and downstream, respectively, of the tank and are movable between an opening position, in which the air flow can flow towards the tank, and a closing position, in which the air flow cannot flow towards the tank, and vice versa; wherein the first and the second adjustment valve are controlled in a synchronous and concordant manner; and a heating element, which is designed to heat the adsorbing material when the first and the second adjustment valve are in the closing position.
ENGINE OUT NOx REDUCTION USING ENHANCED DEF
Unenhanced DEF and anhydrous solid reductant capable of forming ammonia are mixed to create enhanced DEF which is injected into an engine exhaust aftertreatment system which performs selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of engine-out exhaust.
