Disclosed is a method for diagnosing a first exhaust treatment component for treatment of an exhaust gas stream comprising means for oxidizing nitric oxide into nitrogen dioxide. A first reduction catalytic converter is arranged upstream said means for oxidizing nitric oxide into nitrogen dioxide, and a second reduction catalytic converter is arranged downstream said means. A reagent is for reduction of nitrogen oxides in said first catalytic converter, and a first sensor measures an occurrence of nitrogen oxide downstream said means but upstream said second reduction catalytic converter. The method comprises: causing a supply of reagent upstream said first reduction catalytic converter to an extent exceeding the extent to which reagent is consumed by the first reduction catalytic converter, determining a first measure of the occurrence of reagent downstream said means for oxidizing, and diagnosing said means for oxidizing nitric oxide into nitrogen dioxide based on said first measure.

A leakage treatment member (50) comprising an exhaust aftertreatment component is arranged between said inner perimeter (32) of the fluid passage (30) and said outer periphery (46) of said outer wall (44) of the exhaust aftertreatment unit (40), for aftertreatment of any leakage of said flow of exhaust gases past said aftertreatment unit (40) in said fluid passage (30).

An exhaust-gas treatment module for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine has a plurality of elements which follow one another in an exhaust-gas flow direction. The elements include a first mixing path with a first reactant dispensing arrangement in an upstream end region of the first mixing path and with a first mixing channel which is elongate in the direction of a first mixing path longitudinal axis. A first exhaust-gas treatment arrangement follows and is elongate in the direction of a first exhaust-gas treatment arrangement longitudinal axis and has an upstream end region connected to a downstream end region of the first mixing path, a second mixing path with a second reactant dispensing arrangement in an upstream end region which is connected to a downstream end region of the first exhaust-gas treatment arrangement.

An object of the present invention is to provide an AFX zeolite having a novel structure. An AFX zeolite having a lattice spacing d of a (004) plane being not less than 4.84 Å and not greater than 5.00 Å, and a molar ratio of silica to alumina being not less than 10 and not higher than 32. Such an AFX zeolite can be produced by a production method comprising a crystallization step of crystallizing a composition at a temperature of not lower than 160° C.; the composition containing a silicon source, an aluminum source, a 1,3-di(1-adamantyl)imidazolium cation, and an alkali metal; a molar ratio of hydroxide ions to silica being less than 0.25 or a molar ratio of silica to alumina being not higher than 27; and a molar ratio of the 1,3-di(1-adamantyl)imidazolium cation to silica being less than 0.20.

A hybrid power plant system including a gas turbine system and a coal fired boiler system inputs high oxygen content gas turbine flue gas into the coal fired boiler system, said gas turbine flue gas also including carbon dioxide that is desired to be captured rather than released to the atmosphere. Oxygen in the gas turbine flue gas is consumed in the coal fired boiler, resulting in relatively low oxygen content boiler flue gas stream to be processed. Carbon dioxide, originally included in the gas turbine flue gas, is subsequently captured by the post combustion capture apparatus of the coal fired boiler system, along with carbon diode generated by the burning of coal. The supply of gas turbine flue gas which is input into the boiler system is controlled using dampers and/or fans by a controller based on an oxygen sensor measurement and one or more flow rate measurements.

An AFX framework type zeolite having a SiO.sub.2/Al.sub.2O.sub.3 molar ratio of greater than 50 is disclosed. The high-silica AFX framework type zeolite is synthesized from a reaction mixture having high silica and low hydroxide concentrations in the presence of an organic structure directing agent comprising 1,3-bis(1-adamantyl)imidazolium cations.

An exhaust purification device includes an adding valve that adds an additive to exhaust gas. A first partition plate includes a first hole-formation region, which includes a main flow hole extending through a central portion and sub-flow holes surrounding the main flow hole, and a first hole-free region surrounding the first hole-formation region. A second partition plate located at a downstream side of the first partition plate includes a second hole-free region, which includes a portion overlapping the main flow hole, and a second hole-formation region surrounding the second hole-free region. An injector injects the additive in a circumferential direction of the first hole-free region from a position opposing the first hole-free region in the extending direction and opposing a projection of the first hole-formation region in a cross-sectional direction.

An improved SCRoF (selective catalytic reduction on filter) device for treating exhaust from an internal combustion engine. The filter has numerous entry and exit channels. Exhaust enters the entry channels and flows through side walls into the exit channels. Relative to the exhaust flow path, these side walls are coated on the downstream side with a ceria-based catalyst and on the upstream side with a Cu-zeolite catalyst. This allows the filter to optimally achieve both particulate matter oxidation and NOx reduction, respectively.
