Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of structures for purifying a gas charged with gaseous pollutants essentially of NO x type. More particularly, the invention relates to honeycomb structures, in particular used to treat the exhaust gas of a gasoline or preferably diesel engine, and incorporating an electrochemical catalyst system.
- a conventional three-way catalyst allows the joint treatment of pollutants NO x , CO and HC and their conversion into neutral and chemically harmless gases such as N 2 , CO 2 and H 2 O.
- a very good efficiency of the system is not achieved only by a continuous adjustment of the richness of the air-fuel mixture. It is thus known that the slightest deviation from the stoichiometry of said mixture causes a large increase in pollutant emissions.
- the desorption of the NOx trapped on the catalyst and their catalytic reduction in nitrogen gas N 2 can not only in the presence, at the level of the reduction catalyst, of a sufficient quantity of the reducing species, in the form of hydrocarbons or carbon monoxide CO or hydrogen H 2 , the hydrogen being able to be -Even obtained by a catalytic reaction between HC hydrocarbons and water vapor or between CO and water vapor.
- the NOx adsorbing materials are generally alkali metal or alkaline earth metal oxides, in particular barium oxide, a material currently known to be the most effective in this field.
- the efficiency of the conversion of the polluting species can also be substantially limited by the intrinsic characteristics of the materials used as the ionic and electronic conductor. More precisely, since the electrochemical system consists of small grains randomly arranged with respect to each other, its efficiency is necessarily limited, on the one hand, by the connections between the grains and, on the other hand, by the small quantity of conductors (electrons). and / or ions) available for the proper functioning of the electrochemical catalysis system.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a solution for solving the problems described above.
- one of the aims of the present invention is to provide a structure for the purification of a polluted gas, in particular a structure for filtering an exhaust gas resulting from a gasoline or preferably diesel engine loaded with pollutants. gaseous and solid particles, able to work effectively regardless of the richness of the air / fuel mixture.
- the invention relates to novel electrochemical systems, having an NO x storage ability comparable to systems using the presence of alkali or alkaline earth metals of the barium type.
