Abstract

An exhaust treatment system includes an oxidation device having a plurality of channels through which a flow of exhaust flows. A first portion of the channels of the oxidation device are coated with catalytic material for converting NO to NO2 and a second portion of the channels are uncoated with the catalytic material. The exhaust treatment system also includes a selective catalytic reduction device disposed downstream from the oxidation device. The selective catalytic reduction device is configured to receive the flow of exhaust passing through the oxidation device.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present disclosure relates generally to an exhaust treatment system, and more particularly, to an exhaust treatment system with NO2 control.BACKGROUND[0002]Internal combustion engines, including diesel engines, gasoline engines, gaseous fuel-powered engines, and other engines known in the art, may exhaust a complex mixture of air pollutants. The air pollutants may be composed of gaseous and solid compounds, including particulate matter, nitrogen oxides (NOx), and sulfur compounds. Due to heightened environmental concerns, exhaust emission standards have become increasingly stringent. The amount of pollutants emitted from an engine may be regulated depending on the type, size, and / or class of engine. One method that has been implemented by engine manufacturers to comply with the regulation of NOx exhausted to the environment has been to implement a strategy called selective catalytic reduction (SCR).[0003]SCR is a process by which gaseous or liquid reductant ...
