An exhaust gas cleaning component, having a housing with an inflow port and an outflow port, a first honeycomb structure in the housing with a casing, the casing having an outer surface over which exhaust gas can flow, and also having an applicator device by which an exhaust gas cleaning additive can be applied to the outer surface of the casing.

A method for diagnosing NOx sensors in an exhaust aftertreatment system includes suspending reductant dosing in an exhaust aftertreatment system; purging a reductant deposit in a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system of the exhaust aftertreatment system; adjusting at least one of an ignition timing and an engine speed for an engine to adjust an engine out nitrogen oxide (NOx) amount; receiving measured SCR inlet NOx data from a SCR inlet NOx sensor and measured SCR outlet NOx data from a SCR outlet NOx sensor; determining a phase shift between the measured SCR inlet and SCR outlet NOx data; applying the determined phase shift to the SCR outlet NOx data; and determining a diagnostic feature based on the SCR inlet NOx data and the phase shifted SCR outlet NOx data regarding a state of the SCR inlet and outlet NOx sensors.

A strainer is provided in an interior of an injection pipe serving as an injection opening through which a liquid containing a reducing agent is injected into a tank body. In the strainer, a front end portion, having a substantially triangular or substantially trapezoidal shape when a cross section is taken along a plane including an axis of a strainer body having a substantially cylindrical shape, is formed integrally with a front end of the strainer body.

An exhaust gas control system includes an upstream purification device disposed in an exhaust passage of the internal combustion engine, a downstream purification device disposed in a portion of the exhaust passage downstream from the upstream purification device, a fuel addition valve disposed in a portion of the exhaust passage upstream from the upstream purification device, and a urea addition valve disposed in a portion of the exhaust passage between the upstream purification device and the downstream purification device, and a cooling device. The cooling device is configured such that refrigerant cools the fuel addition valve first and then cools the urea addition valve subsequent to the fuel addition valve.

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.

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.
