Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur Reduzierung des NOx-Gehalts von Abgas eines Verbrennungsmotors, das zumindest über ein Partikelfilter und über zumindest einen diesem nachgeordneten Katalysator zu einem Auslass strömt.The invention relates to a method for reducing the NOx content of exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine, which flows to an outlet at least via a particle filter and at least one catalytic converter arranged downstream thereof.
Ferner nimmt die Erfindung Bezug auf eine Anordnung zur Reduzierung des NOx-Gehalts im Abgas eines Verbrennungsmotors mit im Strömungsweg des Abgases angeordnetem zumindest einen Partikelfilter und zumindest einem diesem nachgeordneten Katalysator sowie einer im Strömungsweg dem zumindest einen Katalysator vorgeordneten Kondensationsstufe mit Kondensatablauf.Furthermore, the invention relates to an arrangement for reducing the NOx content in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine with at least one particle filter arranged in the flow path of the exhaust gas and at least one catalyst downstream of this and a condensation stage with condensate drain arranged upstream of the at least one catalyst.
Im vermehrten Umfang stehen Bemühungen an, um aus Dieselabgasen Rußteilchen zu entfernen. Hierzu ist es bekannt, dass in den Abgasstrom eines Dieselmotors ein Dieselpartikelfilter sowie zumindest ein Katalysator angeordnet werden. Häufig werden mehrere Katalysatoren wie elektrisch beheizbare Katalysatoren und SCR-Katalysatoren in Reihe geschaltet.Efforts are increasing to remove soot particles from diesel exhaust gases. For this purpose, it is known that a diesel particle filter and at least one catalytic converter are arranged in the exhaust gas flow of a diesel engine. Frequently, several catalysts such as electrically heated catalysts and SCR catalysts are connected in series.
In Abhängigkeit der die Rußteilchen entfernenden Einrichtungen muss jedoch der Motor mehr Leistung aufwenden, damit das Abgas ausgeschoben wird.Depending on the devices that remove the soot particles, however, the engine has to use more power so that the exhaust gas is expelled.
Der
Nachteilig bei der entsprechenden Vorrichtung ist es, dass weiterhin eine hohe Rußbelastung zu Beginn des Startens des Motors auftritt.A disadvantage of the corresponding device is that there is still a high level of soot at the start of starting the engine.

Bei einer Abgasanlage nach der
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren und eine Anordnung der eingangs genannten Art so weiterzubilden, dass der NOx-Anteil im Abgas reduziert wird, insbesondere bereits beim Starten des Verbrennungsmotors. Ferner soll vermieden werden, dass während des laufenden Betriebs der Strömungswiderstand merklich erhöht wird, gleichwenn der NOx-Anteil im Vergleich zu bekannten Anordnungen reduziert wird.The present invention is based on the object of developing a method and an arrangement of the type mentioned at the outset such that the NOx content in the exhaust gas is reduced, in particular already when the internal combustion engine is started. Furthermore, it should be avoided that the flow resistance is noticeably increased during ongoing operation, even if the NOx content is reduced in comparison to known arrangements.
Zur Lösung der Aufgabe wird zum einen vorgeschlagen ein Verfahren zur Reduzierung des NOx-Gehalts von Abgas eines Verbrennungsmotors, das zumindest über ein Partikelfilter und zumindest einen diesem nachgeordneten Katalysator zu einem Auslass strömt, wobei das Abgas eine im Abgasweg vor dem zumindest einen Katalysator angeordnete zumindest einen Wärmetauscher aufweisende Kondensationsstufe erst dann vollständig durchströmt, wenn an dem Wärmetauscher die Taupunkttemperatur TT oder in etwa die Taupunkttemperatur TT des Abgases erreicht ist.To achieve the object, on the one hand, a method is proposed for reducing the NOx content of exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine, which flows to an outlet at least via a particle filter and at least one catalytic converter arranged downstream thereof, the exhaust gas at least one arranged in the exhaust gas path upstream of the at least one catalyst only flows through a condenser stage having heat exchanger when the dew point temperature T T or approximately the dew point temperature T T of the exhaust gas is reached on the heat exchanger.
Dabei ist insbesondere vorgesehen, dass eine Ventileinrichtung der Kondensationsstufe vorgeordnet oder in dieser integriert wird, mittels der vor Erreichen der Taupunkttemperatur TT am Wärmetauscher Abgas zumindest teilweise von der Kondensationsstufe ferngehalten wird. Insbesondere wird sodann das Abgas über ein weiteres Partikelfilter geführt.In particular, it is provided that a valve device is arranged upstream of the condensation stage or integrated therein, by means of which exhaust gas is at least partially kept away from the condensation stage at the heat exchanger before the dew point temperature T T is reached. In particular, the exhaust gas is then passed through a further particle filter.
Hierzu ist insbesondere vorgesehen, dass vor Erreichen der Taupunkttemperatur TT am Wärmetauscher das Abgas über einen Bypass an der Kondensationsstufe vorbeigeführt wird. In dem Bypass kann ein weiteres Partikelfilter vorgesehen sein.For this purpose, it is provided in particular that the exhaust gas is guided past the condensation stage via a bypass before the dew point temperature T T is reached. Another particle filter can be provided in the bypass.
Erfindungsgemäß ist insbesondere vorgesehen, dass zu Beginn des Startens eines Verbrennungsmotors bereits eine Reduzierung der Rußpartikel erfolgt, indem ein weiteres Partikelfilter zugeschaltet wird, das dann, wenn am Wärmetauscher der Taupunkt für das Abgas noch nicht erreicht ist, die Kondensationsstufe umgangen wird. Nach Erreichen der Taupunkttemperatur TT am Wärmetauscher wird das weitere Partikelfilter nicht mehr durchströmt, so dass sich ein zusätzlicher Widerstand während des Dauerbetriebes durch das Sammeln von Rußpartikeln nicht aufbauen kann, also die Leistung des Motors nicht negativ beeinflusst wird.According to the invention, it is provided in particular that the soot particles are already reduced at the start of starting an internal combustion engine by switching on a further particle filter which, if the dew point for the exhaust gas has not yet been reached at the heat exchanger, bypasses the condensation stage. After reaching the dew point temperature T T on the heat exchanger, the further particle filter is no longer flowed through, so that an additional resistance cannot build up during continuous operation by collecting soot particles, so the performance of the engine is not adversely affected.
Die Kühlung in der Kondensationsstufe erfolgt mittels des Wärmetauschers, wobei eine Direktverdampfung oder eine indirekte Kühlung durch Schalten des Wärmetauschers in einen Solekreislauf erfolgen kann.The cooling in the condensation stage takes place by means of the heat exchanger, with direct evaporation or indirect cooling being possible by switching the heat exchanger into a brine circuit.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Kondensationsstufe nach dem Partikelfilter und vor dem Katalysator in dem Strömungsweg des Abgases angeordnet wird.In a further development of the invention, it is provided that the condensation stage is arranged after the particle filter and before the catalytic converter in the flow path of the exhaust gas.
Dabei sollte insbesondere das Abgas in der Kondensationsstufe auf eine Temperatur TA von zumindest 80 °C, insbesondere auf eine Temperatur TA zwischen 50 °C und 80 °C abgekühlt werden. In particular, the exhaust gas in the condensation stage should be cooled to a temperature TA of at least 80 ° C., in particular to a temperature T A between 50 ° C. and 80 ° C.
Das in der Kondensationsstufe anfallende Kondensat wird über einen Abfluss abgeleitet, der beheizbar ist, um auch bei tiefen Temperaturen sicherzustellen, dass der Abfluss durch ausfallendes Kondensat aus der Kondensationsstufe nicht behindert wird.The condensate accumulating in the condensation stage is drained off via a drain that can be heated in order to ensure, even at low temperatures, that the outflow is not impeded by condensate from the condensation stage.
Insbesondere wird die Kondensationsstufe derart ausgebildet, dass dem die Kondensationsstufe durchströmenden Abgas eine Strömungsrichtung aufgezwungen wird, die entlang Fahrfläche eines den Verbrennungsmotor aufweisenden Fahrzeugs verläuft, also insbesondere eine horizontal verlaufende Strömungsrichtung.In particular, the condensation stage is designed such that a flow direction is forced on the exhaust gas flowing through the condensation stage, which runs along the driving surface of a vehicle having the internal combustion engine, that is to say in particular a horizontally running flow direction.
Die Erfindung wird jedoch auch gelöst durch eine Anordnung zur Reduzierung des NOx-Gehalts im Abgas eines Verbrennungsmotors mit im Strömungsweg des Abgases angeordnetem zumindest einen Partikelfilter und zumindest einem diesem nachgeordneten Katalysator sowie einer im Strömungsweg dem zumindest einen Katalysator vorgeordneten Kondensationsstufe mit Kondensatablauf, wobei parallel zur oder in der Kondensationsstufe ein abgasführender Abgasnebenweg verläuft, der dann von dem Abgas durchströmbar ist, wenn an dem in der Kondensationsstufe vorhandenen Wärmetauscher eine Temperatur herrscht, die größer als die Taupunkttemperatur TT oder in etwa die Taupunkttemperatur TT des Abgases ist.However, the invention is also achieved by an arrangement for reducing the NOx content in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine with at least one particle filter arranged in the flow path of the exhaust gas and at least one catalyst downstream of this and a condensation stage with condensate drain arranged upstream of the at least one catalyst, parallel to or in the condensation stage there is an exhaust gas-carrying bypass, through which the exhaust gas can flow when the temperature of the heat exchanger in the condensation stage is greater than the dew point temperature T T or approximately the dew point temperature T T of the exhaust gas.
Insbesondere sieht die Erfindung vor, dass der Nebenweg, der als parallel zur Kondensationsstufe verlaufender Bypass ausgebildet sein kann, ein weiteres Partikelfilter aufweist oder ein solches ist.In particular, the invention provides that the secondary path, which can be designed as a bypass running parallel to the condensation stage, has or is a further particle filter.
In der Kondensationsstufe kann durch Direktverdampfung oder durch indirekte Kühlung des Wärmetauschers die Temperatur TK auf TK ≅ TT = Taupunkttemperatur des Abgases eingestellt werden.In the condensation stage, the temperature TK can be set to TK ≅ T T = dew point temperature of the exhaust gas by direct evaporation or by indirect cooling of the heat exchanger.
Des Weiteren sieht die Erfindung vor, dass vor der Kondensationsstufe eine Ventileinrichtung angeordnet ist, mittels der in Abhängigkeit von an dem Wärmetauscher in der Kondensationsstufe herrschender Temperatur TK Abgas der Kondensationsstufe oder dem Abgasnebenweg zuführbar ist. Hierdurch ergibt sich insbesondere der Vorteil, dass dann, wenn an dem Wärmetauscher eine Temperatur herrscht, die gleich der Taupunkttemperatur TT des Abgases ist, der Abgasnebenweg absperrbar ist, so dass das Abgas ausschließlich durch die Kondensationsstufe strömt.Furthermore, the invention provides that a valve device is arranged upstream of the condensation stage, by means of which exhaust gas can be fed to the condensation stage or to the bypass depending on the temperature TK prevailing at the heat exchanger in the condensation stage. This has the particular advantage that when the heat exchanger has a temperature which is equal to the dew point temperature T T of the exhaust gas, the exhaust gas bypass can be shut off, so that the exhaust gas flows exclusively through the condensation stage.
Die Kondensationsstufe kann ein insbesondere quaderförmiges Gehäuse aufweisen, das bodenseitig Kondensatführungen aufweist, die durch Sicken ausgebildet sein können.The condensation stage can have, in particular, a cuboid housing that has condensate guides on the bottom, which can be formed by beads.
Das Kondensat kann des Weiteren über eine beheizbare Austrittsöffnung abgeleitet werden, so dass sichergestellt ist, dass auch bei tiefen Temperaturen das Kondensat aus dem Gehäuse abfließen kann.The condensate can also be drained off via a heatable outlet opening, so that it is ensured that the condensate can flow out of the housing even at low temperatures.
Die Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand der nachfolgenden Beschreibung bevorzugter Ausführungsbeispiele näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail below with the aid of the following description of preferred exemplary embodiments.

Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung erfolgt eine Benutzung der bereits zum Einsatz gelangenden Abgasnachbehandlungssysteme von Motoren, um den NOx-Ausstoß zu reduzieren, der allgemein als „Feinstaub“ bezeichnet wird, der durch die Oxidation beim Verbrennungsprozess in Motoren mit Diesel- und Benzinkraftstoff entstehen kann.In the present invention, the exhaust gas aftertreatment systems of engines that are already in use are used to reduce the NOx emissions, which is generally referred to as “fine dust”, which can be caused by the oxidation during the combustion process in engines with diesel and gasoline fuels.
Durch die erfindungsgemäße Lehre erfolgt eine Abgasvolumenreduzierung durch einen thermischen Prozess bis auf ca. 60 %, wobei durch einen gleichzeitigen Kondensationsvorgang Stickstoffoxidverbindungen eliminiert werden (NOx-Verminderung), und zwar in etwa bis zu 30 %.The teaching according to the invention results in an exhaust gas volume reduction by means of a thermal process to approximately 60%, nitrogen oxide compounds being eliminated by a simultaneous condensation process (NOx reduction), in fact approximately up to 30%.

Nachstehende Berechnung soll die Volumenreduzierung verdeutlichen. Angenommen werden Durchschnittsverbrauchswerte für einen Dieselmotor: 5 1 Dieselkraftstoff nach DIN EN 590 pro Stunde. Die Abgasmenge beträgt ca. 1,3 m3/min und somit 78 m3/h.The following calculation should clarify the volume reduction. Average consumption values for a diesel engine are assumed: 5 1 diesel fuel according to DIN EN 590 per hour. The amount of exhaust gas is about 1.3 m 3 / min and thus 78 m 3 / h.
Beträgt die Dichte bei 600 °C des Abgases ungefähr 0,404 kg/m3, so ergäbe sich bei einer Austrittstemperatur von ca. 50 °C, bei der das Abgas eine Dichte von 1,120 kg/m3 aufweist, ein Volumen von ca. 28 m3, so dass in Folge die Reduzierung des Abgasvolumens in etwa 64 % beträgt. Die Kondensationsmenge beträgt in etwa 4 kg/h. Unter Berücksichtigung der Abgasmenge und der Temperaturreduzierung ergibt sich ein Kältebedarf von etwa 7,0 KW.If the density at 600 ° C. of the exhaust gas is approximately 0.404 kg / m 3 , a volume of approximately 28 m would result at an outlet temperature of approximately 50 ° C. at which the exhaust gas has a density of 1.120 kg / m 3 3 , so that the reduction in exhaust gas volume is approximately 64%. The amount of condensation is about 4 kg / h. Taking the amount of exhaust gas and the temperature reduction into account, there is a cooling requirement of around 7.0 KW.
