20170370266 · 2017-12-28 ·

An exhaust treatment device for a diesel engine is provided, which includes a parked regeneration requirement notification component and a parked regeneration start operation component. A regeneration process of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) includes an automatic regeneration process and a parked regeneration process. The automatic regeneration process is automatically started when an estimation value of particulate material (PM) accumulated in the DPF reaches a predetermined automatic regeneration start determination value. The parked regeneration process is performed when first and a second conditions are satisfied. The first condition is that a parked regeneration requirement notification component performs a notification of a parked regeneration requirement when a number of cancellations of the automatic regeneration process reaches a predetermined value. The second condition is that the parked regeneration start operation component is subjected to a start operation during a parked state in which an engine equipped machine is neither traveling nor working.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING AND/OR MONITORING THE FUNCTION OF A SECONDARY AIR SUPPLY IN AN EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
20170370264 · 2017-12-28 ·

In a method and device for controlling and/or monitoring the function of a secondary air supply in an emission control system of an internal combustion engine, the emission control system includes at least two catalytic converters situated in succession in an exhaust duct, it being possible for the second catalytic converter to be implemented as a combination of catalytic converter and particulate filter. For a secondary air diagnosis and for secondary air control, a two-point lambda probe is situated, with respect to a direction of flow of exhaust gas, downstream of the first catalytic converter. Measures are applied for compensating tolerance and aging effects of the two-point lambda probe. This results in particular in cost advantages in emission control systems for fulfilling stricter emission requirements. In particular, this makes it possible to operate the particulate filter in optimized fashion.

Device for the reduction of ammonia and nitrogen oxides emissions

An exhaust gas purifying system for an engine includes a three-way catalyst, a particulate filter, an ammonia sorbent unit, an exhaust gas purifying catalyst unit, and a gas injection component including an oxygen-containing gas, all coupled to an exhaust line. Methods for purifying exhaust gas from an engine include exposing the exhaust gas to a three-way catalyst and a particulate filter, thus generating ammonia. The ammonia may be stored in an ammonia sorbent unit during a cold start condition. An oxygen-containing gas may be injected into the exhaust line. Once the ammonia sorbent has reached a desorption temperature, the ammonia may be released into the exhaust line and exposed to an exhaust gas purifying catalyst unit. The exhaust gas purifying catalyst partially oxidizes the ammonia to nitrous oxides (NOx) and subsequently catalyzes a reaction between the remaining ammonia and the nitrous oxides to give nitrogen gas and water.
