Abstract

An exhaust gas purification apparatus includes a first oxidation catalyst provided in a passage through which exhaust gas flows, a particulate matter collecting device provided downstream of the first oxidation catalyst, a selective catalytic reduction catalyst integrally formed with the particulate matter collecting device and having ammonia adsorption property, a second oxidation catalyst integrally formed with the particulate matter collecting device and oxidizing ammonia at a predetermined temperature or higher and a urea water supply device provided upstream of the selective catalytic reduction catalyst for supplying urea water. The urea water supply device supplies urea water only when a temperature of the second oxidation catalyst is below the predetermined temperature.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to an exhaust gas purification apparatus and, more specifically, to an exhaust gas purification apparatus having a urea SCR (selective catalytic reduction) system for reducing nitrogen oxides (NOx) in exhaust gas emitted from a diesel engine.[0002]The urea SCR system has been developed for reducing NOx in exhaust gas emitted from a diesel engine. The urea SCR system employs an SCR catalyst for converting NOx into nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O) by chemical reaction between NOx and ammonia (NH3) generated by hydrolysis of urea water.[0003]The SCR catalyst is provided in the exhaust passage between the engine and the muffler. Furthermore, an oxidation catalyst and an injection valve for injecting urea water into exhaust gas are provided upstream of the SCR catalyst. The oxidation catalyst oxidizes hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gas into water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) and also promotes the oxidati...
