A first fuel addition valve disposed in a portion of a first exhaust passage upstream from a first upstream purification device, a first urea addition valve disposed in a portion of the first exhaust passage between the first upstream purification device and a first downstream purification device, and a first valve cooling passage configured such that i) refrigerant passes the first urea addition valve and the first fuel addition valve in order, and ii) the refrigerant cools the first fuel addition valve after the refrigerant cools the first urea addition valve.

The present invention relates to an exhaust treatment apparatus (1) for an internal combustion engine (5). The apparatus includes a catalyst chamber (15) containing a catalyst (35). One or more exhaust gas inlets (11A-D) are provided for supplying exhaust gases from the internal combustion engine (5) to the catalyst chamber (C). An exhaust gas outlet (21) for supplying exhaust gases from the catalyst chamber to a turbocharger (25). An injection nozzle (19) is provided for introducing a reductant (23) into the exhaust gases between the catalyst (15) and the turbocharger (25). The reductant (23) and the exhaust gases can undergo mixing as they pass through the turbocharger (25). The catalyst (15) can have a three-dimensional open structure to facilitate the flow of exhaust gases. The invention also relates to a method of treating exhaust gases from an internal combustion engine (5).

An integrated load bank and exhaust heater for a diesel genset exhaust aftertreatment system of the type having a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) section. The load bank/heater can function as a load bank when testing the genset, as a heat source to optimize SCR efficiency, as to thermally regenerate the DPF filter.

Ceramic candle filter and use of the filter in the removal of particulate matter in form of soot, ash, metals and met-al compounds, together with hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides being present in process off-gas or engine exhaust gas, the filter includes a combined SCR and oxidation catalyst being arranged on the dispersion side and within wall of the filter; and a palladium including catalyst arranged on the permeation side and within wall of the filter facing the permeation side.

Ceramic candle filter and use of the filter in the removal of particulate matter in form of soot, ash, metals and metal compounds, together with hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides being present in process off-gas or engine exhaust gas, the filter comprises a combined SCR and oxidation catalyst arranged at least on the dispersion side and/or within wall of the filter, the combined SCR and oxidation catalyst comprises palladium, a vanadium oxide and titania.

Methods and systems are provided for a fuel system. In one example, a method includes flowing fuel tank vapors to a catalyst during a fuel tank depressurization in response to a refueling request. The method further includes executing an engine vapor flush following a refueling event being completed.

Method for operating an internal combustion engine which has a gas combustion system and an exhaust gas post-treatment system. Exhaust gas that leaves the gas combustion system is directed to at least one CH4 oxidation catalytic converter of the exhaust gas post-treatment system. The CH4/NO2 mole ratio in the exhaust gas is set in a defined fashion by at least one gas-combustion-system-side and/or exhaust-gas-post-treatment-system-side measure upstream of at least one CH4 oxidation catalytic converter.

A lance injector assembly for an exhaust component includes: an exhaust conduit; a shaft configured to extend into the exhaust conduit and dispense reductant from a hydraulically-actuated valve; an actuator configured to operate the hydraulically-actuated valve; and a mounting system configured to couple the actuator and the shaft to the exhaust conduit. The mounting system prevents the actuator from directly contacting the exhaust conduit.

In an exhaust gas processing device, an air-fuel ratio sensor is provided such that a measuring portion is located in a region surrounded by a downstream-side end surface of a TWC, an upstream-side end surface of a GPF, and an inner wall surface of a case against which the exhaust gas G that has passed through the TWC flows, that is the region a region on the GPF side of the center of the TWC.
