The present invention relates to an apparatus installed in a vehicle for recovering exhaust heat. The apparatus includes: a housing having therein a heat exchanger and having a front through hole through which exhaust gas is introduced and a rear through hole through which the introduced exhaust gas is discharged; a first tube installed in the housing and having a dual tube structure; and a second tube connected to the first tube and having a dual tube structure. A coolant introduced through the second tube passes through the first tube and exchanges heat with the exhaust gas in the heat exchanger in the housing. The coolant, which has exchanged heat, is discharged to an engine through the first tube and the second tube.

An exhaust energy recovery system (EERS) and associated methods for an engine are disclosed. An embodiment of an EERS, for example, includes an inlet duct that is configured to divert exhaust gas from an exhaust duct of the engine into the recovery system and an outlet duct configured to return the exhaust gas to the exhaust duct downstream of the inlet duct. The recovery system is configured to heat components or fluids associated with engine to operating temperatures. The recovery system may be part of a mobile power system that is mounted to a single trailer and includes an engine and a power unit such as a high pressure pump or generator mounted to the trailer. Methods of operating and purging recovery systems are also disclosed.

A bottoming cycle power system includes a turbo-expander operable to rotate a turbo-crankshaft as a flow of exhaust gas from a combustion process passes through the turbo-expander. A turbo-compressor is operable to compress the flow of exhaust gas after the exhaust gas passes through the turbo-expander. An open cycle absorption chiller system includes an absorber section operable to receive the flow of exhaust gas from the turbo-expander and to mix the flow of exhaust gas with a first refrigerant solution within the absorber section. The first refrigerant solution is operable to absorb water from the exhaust gas as the exhaust gas passes through the first refrigerant solution. The absorber section is operable to route the flow of exhaust gas to the turbo-compressor after the flow of exhaust gas has passed through the first refrigerant solution.

Various embodiments for a hydrogen zero emissions vehicle that utilizes hydride storage of hydrogen and buffering of hydrogen for high demand power are disclosed.

A system for removing dust from exhaust gas, comprising a dust removing system inlet, a dust removing system outlet, and an electric field apparatus (1021). The electric field apparatus (1021) comprises an electric field apparatus inlet, an electric field apparatus outlet, a dust-removing electric field cathode (10212) and a dust-removing electric field anode (10211). The dust-removing electric field cathode (10212) and the dust-removing electric field anode (10211) are used to generate an ionizing electric field for dust removal. When a certain amount of dust has accumulated on the electric field apparatus, the electric field apparatus performs a black carbon removal process, thereby avoiding a reduced electrode gap resulting from an increased thickness of black carbon.

An exhaust gas purification structure of an outboard motor includes an exhaust gas pipe that has an exhaust gas passage through which exhaust gas of an engine can flow; and a catalyst that is provided in the exhaust gas passage and purifies the exhaust gas by allowing the exhaust gas to pass through the inside thereof. The exhaust gas pipe includes a coolant flow passage allowing a coolant that cools the exhaust gas to flow therethrough. An exhaust gas bypass passage allowing the exhaust gas to flow without passing through the catalyst is formed between the catalyst and an inner surface of the exhaust gas pipe forming the exhaust gas passage.

An energy recovery system and a method of recovering energy are disclosed. In one arrangement, an exhaust gas conduit system guides a flow of exhaust gas generated by a combustion process. A heat exchange fluid circuit guides a flow of a heat exchange fluid. An electrical generator generates electrical power from the flow of heat exchange fluid. The heat exchange fluid circuit is configured so that heat is transferred from the exhaust gas to the heat exchange fluid while the exhaust gas is flowing through the exhaust gas conduit system.

Disclosed is an engine exhaust dust removing system and method. The engine exhaust dust removing system involves an exhaust dust removing system inlet, an exhaust dust removing system outlet and an exhaust electric field device. The engine exhaust dust removing system has a good dust removing effect, and can effectively remove particulate matter from engine exhaust gas.

An engine exhaust gas treatment system, comprising an exhaust gas dust removal system and an exhaust gas ozone purification system. The exhaust gas dust removal system comprises an exhaust gas dust removal system inlet, an exhaust gas dust removal system outlet, and an exhaust gas electric field apparatus (1021). The exhaust gas electric field apparatus (1021) comprises an exhaust gas electric field apparatus inlet, an exhaust gas electric field apparatus outlet, an exhaust gas dust removal electric field cathode (10212), and an exhaust gas dust removal electric field anode (10211). The exhaust gas dust removal electric field cathode (10212) and the exhaust gas dust removal electric field anode (10211) are configured to produce an exhaust gas ionized dust removal electric field. The engine exhaust gas treatment system is able to effectively remove particles in engine exhaust gas, and the purification treatment effect for engine exhaust gas is good.

An aftertreatment system includes: a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system configured to decompose constituents of exhaust gas; an exhaust conduit configured to deliver the exhaust gas to the SCR system; a hydrocarbon insertion assembly; a valve operably coupled to the exhaust conduit, the valve configured to be selectively opened so as to allow a first gas to enter the exhaust conduit and mix with the exhaust gas; and a controller configured to: determine a SCR system temperature, in response to the SCR system temperature being less than a target temperature, instruct the hydrocarbon insertion assembly to insert hydrocarbons into the exhaust gas, and in response to the SCR system temperature being greater than the target temperature, instruct the valve to open so as to allow the first gas to enter the exhaust conduit, a first gas temperature of the first gas being lower than the SCR system temperature.
