Proposed are a low-temperature DeNOx catalyst for selective catalytic reduction having improved sulfur resistance and a method of manufacturing the same. The low-temperature DeNOx catalyst for selective catalytic reduction having improved sulfur resistance accelerates the reduction reaction of nitrogen oxides even at low temperatures despite the small amount of vanadium supported, improves sulfur poisoning resistance, does not cause secondary environmental pollution by treated gas, has excellent abrasion resistance and strength and thus the removal efficiency of nitrogen oxides is not reduced even during long-term operation, and is easy to manufacture, thus contributing to commercialization.

An exhaust gas/reactant mixing arrangement is for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine for mixing exhaust gas and reactant. The mixing arrangement includes an exhaust gas guide housing extending in the direction of a housing longitudinal axis and a housing wall. The housing wall surrounds and defines an exhaust gas duct accommodating a flow of exhaust gas. A mixing zone is formed between an upstream end wall and a downstream end wall arranged downstream of the upstream end wall. The mixing zone includes a first chamber and a second chamber as well as a reactant dispensing unit carried on the exhaust gas guide housing for dispensing reactant into the first chamber in a reactant main dispensing direction oriented substantially along a reactant dispensing line.

A urea water supply system includes: a first supply valve for supplying urea water; a second supply valve for supplying urea water; a supply passage for connecting a urea water tank and the first and the second supply valves; and an electronic control unit (ECU). The supply passage branches to have a first supply passage extending from a branch point to the first supply valve and a second supply passage extending from the branch point to the second supply valve, and a volume of the first supply passage is greater than a volume of the second supply passage. The ECU opens the first supply valve while keeping the second supply valve closed, for starting filling of the supply passage with urea water, and thereafter determines completion of filling of urea water into the first supply passage.
