Abstract

Provided is a sulfur oxide detection device capable of improving the detection accuracy of the SOx concentration in exhaust gas. The sulfur oxide detection device (1) includes: an element part (10) having a sensor unit (51) and a diffusion rate-limiting layer (16), a voltage application part (61), a current detection part (62), a voltage control part (80b ) and the estimation unit (80a). The voltage control unit executes first control for increasing the applied voltage from the first voltage to the second voltage so that the voltage equal to or higher than the decomposition start voltage of water and sulfur oxides is applied to the sensor unit at the first time, and at the second A second control is performed after the first control, which raises the applied voltage from the first voltage to the second voltage so that a voltage equal to or higher than the decomposition start voltage is applied to the sensor unit at a second time different from the first time. Poison recovery control is executed between the first control and the second control. The estimation unit estimates the concentration of sulfur oxides in the gas to be measured based on a difference or a ratio between a first current detected when the first control is performed and a second current detected when the second control is performed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a sulfur oxide detection device (SOx detection device) for detecting the concentration of sulfur oxides (SOx) in exhaust gas. Background technique [0002] Fuels used in internal combustion engines, especially fossil fuels, contain trace amounts of sulfur (S) components. Such sulfur components contained in the fuel cause deterioration of components in the exhaust system of the internal combustion engine and the like. In addition, frequent execution of control to suppress deterioration of components due to sulfur components and / or control to regenerate degraded components will lead to deterioration of fuel efficiency and the like. Therefore, in order to minimize the deterioration of the fuel economy and the like and also to minimize the deterioration of the components, it is desired to detect the content of the sulfur component in the fuel. [0003] When the fuel used in the internal combustion engine contains sulfur c...
