Exhaust purification system of internal combustion engine
An exhaust treatment catalyst (13) arranged in an engine exhaust passage and a heat and hydrogen generation device (50) are provided. The amount of fuel fed to the heat and hydrogen generation device (50), which is required for making the temperature of the exhaust treatment catalyst (13) rise by exactly a predetermined temperature rise by heat and hydrogen fed from the heat and hydrogen generation device (50) when the exhaust treatment catalyst (13) is not poisoned and does not thermally deteriorate, is calculated based on the amount of exhaust gas. When fuel of the reference feed fuel amount corresponding to the amount of exhaust gas is fed to the heat and hydrogen generation device (50) and the temperature rise of the exhaust treatment catalyst (13) fails to reach the predetermined temperature rise, the treatment for restoration from poisoning of the exhaust treatment catalyst (13) is performed.

CONCENTRATION CALCULATION APPARATUS AND GAS DETECTION APPARATUS
A multi-gas detection apparatus includes a multi-gas sensor and a control section. A microcomputer of the control section calculates the concentration of NOx by using a correction expression; i.e., by multiplying an NOx concentration output (C) by a correction coefficient a and adding a correction addition value b. As shown in an expression, the value of the correction coefficient a is changed in accordance with the concentration of ammonia. As shown in an expression, the value of the correction addition value b is changed in accordance with the concentration of ammonia and the concentration of nitrogen dioxide. Even when a second pumping current Ip2 (in other words, the NOx concentration output) changes due to the influence of ammonia contained in the exhaust gas, the control section can compute the concentration of nitrogen oxide while mitigating the influence of ammonia.
