Abstract
Description
本発明は、排気浄化装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an exhaust emission control device.
従来より、ディーゼルエンジンにおいては、排気ガスが流通する排気管の途中に、酸素共存下でも選択的にNOxを還元剤と反応させる性質を備えた選択還元型触媒を装備し、該選択還元型触媒の上流側に必要量の還元剤を添加して該還元剤を選択還元型触媒上で排気ガス中のNOx(窒素酸化物)と還元反応させ、これによりNOxの排出濃度を低減し得るようにしたものがある。 Conventionally, a diesel engine is equipped with a selective reduction catalyst having a property of selectively reacting NOx with a reducing agent even in the presence of oxygen in the middle of an exhaust pipe through which exhaust gas flows, and the selective reduction catalyst A required amount of a reducing agent is added to the upstream side of the catalyst so that the reducing agent undergoes a reduction reaction with NOx (nitrogen oxide) in the exhaust gas on the selective catalytic reduction catalyst, thereby reducing the NOx emission concentration. There is what I did.
他方、プラント等における工業的な排煙脱硝処理の分野では、還元剤にアンモニア(NH3)を用いてNOxを還元浄化する手法の有効性が既に広く知られているところであるが、自動車の場合には、アンモニアそのものを搭載して走行することに関し安全確保が困難であるため、近年においては、毒性のない尿素水を還元剤として使用することが研究されている。 On the other hand, in the field of industrial flue gas denitration treatment in plants and the like, the effectiveness of a method for reducing and purifying NOx using ammonia (NH 3 ) as a reducing agent is already widely known. Since it is difficult to ensure safety with respect to traveling with ammonia itself, in recent years, the use of non-toxic urea water as a reducing agent has been studied.
即ち、尿素水を選択還元型触媒の上流側で排気ガス中に添加すれば、該排気ガス中で尿素水がアンモニアと炭酸ガスに熱分解され、選択還元型触媒上で排気ガス中のNOxがアンモニアにより良好に還元浄化されることになる。 That is, if urea water is added to the exhaust gas upstream of the selective catalytic reduction catalyst, the urea water is thermally decomposed into ammonia and carbon dioxide gas in the exhaust gas, and NOx in the exhaust gas is converted into the selective catalytic reduction catalyst. It will be reduced and purified well by ammonia.
他方、ディーゼルエンジンの排気浄化を図る場合、排気ガス中のNOxを除去するだけでは十分ではなく、排気ガス中に含まれるパティキュレート(Particulate Matter:粒子状物質)についてもパティキュレートフィルタを通して捕集する必要があるが、この種のパティキュレートフィルタを採用する場合には、目詰まりにより排気抵抗が増加しないうちにパティキュレートを適宜に燃焼除去してパティキュレートフィルタの再生を図る必要がある。 On the other hand, when purifying exhaust gas from a diesel engine, it is not enough to remove NOx in the exhaust gas, and particulates contained in the exhaust gas are also collected through the particulate filter. However, when this type of particulate filter is employed, it is necessary to regenerate the particulate filter by appropriately burning and removing the particulate before the exhaust resistance increases due to clogging.
このため、パティキュレートフィルタの前段に、フロースルー型の酸化触媒を付帯装備させ、パティキュレートの堆積量が増加してきた段階で前記酸化触媒より上流の排気ガス中に燃料を添加してパティキュレートフィルタを強制再生することが考えられている。 For this reason, a flow-through type oxidation catalyst is attached to the preceding stage of the particulate filter, and fuel is added to the exhaust gas upstream from the oxidation catalyst when the amount of particulate accumulation increases. It is considered to force playback.
つまり、酸化触媒より上流の排気ガス中に燃料を添加すれば、その添加燃料(HC)が前段の酸化触媒を通過する間に酸化反応するので、その反応熱で昇温した排気ガスの流入により直後のパティキュレートフィルタの触媒床温度が上げられてパティキュレートが燃やし尽くされ、パティキュレートフィルタの再生化が図られることになる。 In other words, if fuel is added to the exhaust gas upstream of the oxidation catalyst, the added fuel (HC) undergoes an oxidation reaction while passing through the preceding oxidation catalyst. The catalyst bed temperature of the particulate filter immediately after that is raised, the particulates are burned out, and the particulate filter is regenerated.
一般的に、前述した如き燃料添加を実行するための具体的手段としては、圧縮上死点付近で行われる燃料のメイン噴射に続いて圧縮上死点より遅い非着火のタイミングでポスト噴射を実行して排気ガス中に燃料を添加することが考えられているが、その添加燃料を効率良く強制再生に活用し且つ排気ガスが極力温度降下しないうちに添加燃料を酸化処理するためには、例えば、図3に示す如く、パティキュレートフィルタ1及びその前段の酸化触媒2を選択還元型触媒3より上流側に配置することが好ましいものと考えられている。
In general, as a specific means for performing the fuel addition as described above, the post-injection is executed at the timing of non-ignition later than the compression top dead center following the main injection of fuel performed near the compression top dead center. It is considered that the fuel is added to the exhaust gas, and in order to efficiently use the added fuel for the forced regeneration and oxidize the added fuel while the exhaust gas does not decrease in temperature as much as possible, for example, As shown in FIG. 3, it is considered preferable to dispose the
また、図3中における符号の4は排気管、5は排気ガス、6は尿素水7を噴射する尿素水添加装置、8は複数枚の邪魔板を互い違いに配置して排気ガス5の流れを撹拌し得るように構成したミキサ、9はリークアンモニア対策として余剰のアンモニアを酸化処理するNH3スリップ触媒を示している。
In FIG. 3,
そして、斯かる従来構造においては、尿素水7の混合・拡散の効率を上げて尿素水7のアンモニアへの分解を促進するために、パティキュレートフィルタ1と選択還元型触媒3との間の排気管4の径を絞り込んで小径部4aを形成し、ここに尿素水添加装置6を配置して尿素水7の添加を行い、しかも、この小径部4a内にミキサ8を配置して排気ガス5の流れを撹拌するようにしている。
In such a conventional structure, the exhaust gas between the
尚、この種のパティキュレートフィルタ及びその前段の酸化触媒を選択還元型触媒より上流に配置した排気浄化装置に関連する先行技術文献情報としては、例えば、本発明と同じ出願人による下記の特許文献1等が既に存在している。
しかしながら、図3に示す如き小径部4aの形成やミキサ8の配置といった措置を施しても、尿素水7がアンモニアと炭酸ガスに分解されるまでの十分な反応時間を確保するためには、尿素水7の添加位置から選択還元型触媒3までに長く距離をとらなければならず、また、小径部4aの前後にテーパ部を介在させなければならないことからも尿素水7の添加位置から選択還元型触媒3までの距離が長くなってしまうため、排気浄化装置としての全長が長くなって車両への搭載性が悪くなるという問題があり、しかも、流路断面積を絞り込む小径部4aが長く延在することで圧力損失が大きくなるという問題もあった。
However, in order to ensure sufficient reaction time until the
本発明は、上述の実情に鑑みてなされたものであり、パティキュレートとNOxの同時低減を図り得る排気浄化装置の搭載性を従来よりも改善し且つ圧力損失も抑制し得るようにすることを目的としている。 The present invention has been made in view of the above-described circumstances, and is intended to improve the mountability of an exhaust purification device capable of simultaneously reducing particulates and NOx as compared to the conventional one and to suppress pressure loss. It is aimed.
本発明は、排気管の途中に選択還元型触媒を装備し且つ該選択還元型触媒の上流側に還元剤として尿素水を添加してNOxを還元浄化するようにした排気浄化装置であって、尿素水の添加位置より上流に、排気ガス中のHCを酸化処理する酸化触媒を備える共に、前記尿素水の添加位置と前記選択還元型触媒との間に、尿素水をアンモニアと炭酸ガスに加水分解する加水分解触媒を担持したパティキュレートフィルタを備えたことを特徴とするものである。 The present invention is an exhaust emission control device equipped with a selective reduction catalyst in the middle of an exhaust pipe and reducing and purifying NOx by adding urea water as a reducing agent upstream of the selective reduction catalyst, An oxidation catalyst for oxidizing HC in the exhaust gas is provided upstream from the urea water addition position, and the urea water is added to ammonia and carbon dioxide gas between the urea water addition position and the selective catalytic reduction catalyst. A particulate filter carrying a hydrolysis catalyst for decomposition is provided.
而して、このようにすれば、パティキュレートフィルタにより排気ガス中のパティキュレートが捕集されると共に、その下流で尿素水が排気ガス中に添加されてアンモニアと炭酸ガスに分解され、選択還元型触媒上で排気ガス中のNOxがアンモニアにより良好に還元浄化されることになるので、排気ガス中のパティキュレートとNOxの同時低減が図られる。 Thus, in this way, particulates in the exhaust gas are collected by the particulate filter, and urea water is added to the exhaust gas downstream thereof to be decomposed into ammonia and carbon dioxide, and selectively reduced. Since NOx in the exhaust gas is satisfactorily reduced and purified by ammonia on the type catalyst, simultaneous reduction of particulates and NOx in the exhaust gas can be achieved.
この際、選択還元型触媒に向けて添加される尿素水が、熱容量の大きな固体物であるパティキュレートフィルタに対し直接衝突して効率の良い熱交換(従来の排気ガスを熱媒体とした熱交換と比較して効率が良い)が行われると共に、パティキュレートフィルタに担持されている加水分解触媒により確実に尿素水からアンモニア及び炭酸ガスへの分解反応が促進され、しかも、尿素水の添加位置と選択還元型触媒との間にパティキュレートフィルタが介在することで尿素水の添加位置から前記選択還元型触媒に到るまでの間に反応時間を稼ぐための十分な距離も確保されるので、従来よりもアンモニアの生成効率が大幅に改善されることになる。 At this time, the urea water added toward the selective catalytic reduction catalyst directly collides with the particulate filter which is a solid material having a large heat capacity, so that efficient heat exchange (heat exchange using conventional exhaust gas as a heat medium) The hydrolysis reaction carried on the particulate filter surely promotes the decomposition reaction from urea water to ammonia and carbon dioxide, and the addition position of urea water Since a particulate filter is interposed between the selective reduction catalyst and a sufficient distance for securing reaction time from the urea water addition position to the selective reduction catalyst is secured, As a result, the ammonia generation efficiency is greatly improved.
また、パティキュレートフィルタを強制再生するに際しては、従来と同様に、エンジン側でのポスト噴射等により排気ガス中にHCを添加し、その添加したHCを酸化触媒で酸化反応させて反応熱により排気ガスを昇温し、これによりパティキュレートフィルタの触媒床温度を上げて捕集済みパティキュレートの燃焼除去を図るようにすれば良い。 In addition, when forcibly regenerating the particulate filter, HC is added to the exhaust gas by post injection on the engine side, and the added HC is oxidized by an oxidation catalyst and exhausted by reaction heat. It is only necessary to raise the gas temperature and thereby raise the catalyst bed temperature of the particulate filter so that the collected particulates are burned and removed.
尚、パティキュレートフィルタには、強制再生時に限らず排気ガスの熱が効率良く蓄えられ、しかも、運転状態の変化により排気ガスの温度が急激に低下しても、パティキュレートフィルタに蓄えられた熱により尿素水の分解反応が暫時継続されて選択還元型触媒へアンモニアが供給され続けるので、排気ガスの温度が低くなる運転領域での選択還元型触媒のNOx低減率が従来よりも向上されることになる。 It should be noted that the particulate filter is not limited to forced regeneration, and the heat of the exhaust gas is efficiently stored, and even if the temperature of the exhaust gas suddenly decreases due to a change in the operating state, the heat stored in the particulate filter As a result, the decomposition reaction of urea water is continued for a while and ammonia is continuously supplied to the selective catalytic reduction catalyst, so that the NOx reduction rate of the selective catalytic reduction catalyst in the operating region where the temperature of the exhaust gas becomes lower is improved than before. become.
また、本発明においては、尿素水の添加位置とパティキュレートフィルタとの間に、添加尿素水をパティキュレートフィルタの入側端面の広範囲に拡散し得るよう複数の拡散孔を開口した拡散板を配設することが好ましく、また、選択還元型触媒の直後には、リークアンモニア対策として余剰のアンモニアを酸化処理するNH3スリップ触媒を配設しておくと良い。 In the present invention, a diffusion plate having a plurality of diffusion holes is arranged between the urea water addition position and the particulate filter so that the added urea water can diffuse over a wide range of the inlet side end face of the particulate filter. It is preferable to provide an NH 3 slip catalyst that oxidizes excess ammonia as a measure against leakage ammonia immediately after the selective reduction catalyst.

図1は本発明を実施する形態の一例を示すもので、本形態例の排気浄化装置においては、前述した図3の従来例のものと同様に、排気管4の途中に選択還元型触媒3を装備し且つ該選択還元型触媒3の上流側に尿素水添加装置6により尿素水7を還元剤として添加し得るようにしていますが、この尿素水添加装置6による尿素水7の添加位置より上流には、排気ガス5中のHCを酸化処理する酸化触媒2だけが備えられており、パティキュレートフィルタ1は、尿素水添加装置6による尿素水7の添加位置と前記選択還元型触媒3との間に配置されるように変更されている。
FIG. 1 shows an example of an embodiment for carrying out the present invention. In the exhaust purification apparatus of this embodiment, the selective
しかも、このパティキュレートフィルタ1には、白金等の酸化触媒を担持させることに替えて、尿素水7をアンモニアと炭酸ガスに加水分解する反応を促進する触媒作用を備えた酸化チタン、酸化ジルコニウム、希土類金属、酸化アルミニウム、ゼオライト等の加水分解触媒のみが担持されている。
In addition, the
また、ここに図示している例では、前述した図3のものと同様に、選択還元型触媒3の直後に、リークアンモニア対策として余剰のアンモニアを酸化処理するNH3スリップ触媒9が配設されている。
Further, in the example shown here, as in the case of FIG. 3 described above, immediately after the selective
尚、前記尿素水添加装置6による尿素水7の添加位置に特に小径部は形成しておらず、酸化触媒2、尿素水添加装置6、パティキュレートフィルタ1、選択還元型触媒3、NH3スリップ触媒9の全てが単一のケーシング内にコンパクトに収まるようにしてある。
In addition, the small diameter part is not formed in the addition position of the
而して、このように排気浄化装置を構成すれば、パティキュレートフィルタ1により排気ガス5中のパティキュレートが捕集されると共に、その下流で尿素水7が排気ガス5中に添加されてアンモニアと炭酸ガスに分解され、選択還元型触媒3上で排気ガス5中のNOxがアンモニアにより良好に還元浄化されることになるので、排気ガス5中のパティキュレートとNOxの同時低減が図られる。
Thus, if the exhaust gas purification apparatus is configured in this way, particulates in the
この際、選択還元型触媒3に向けて添加される尿素水7が、熱容量の大きな固体物であるパティキュレートフィルタ1に対し直接衝突して効率の良い熱交換(従来の排気ガス5を熱媒体とした熱交換と比較して効率が良い)が行われると共に、パティキュレートフィルタ1に担持されている加水分解触媒により確実に尿素水7からアンモニア及び炭酸ガスへの分解反応が促進され、しかも、尿素水7の添加位置と選択還元型触媒3との間にパティキュレートフィルタ1が介在することで尿素水7の添加位置から前記選択還元型触媒3に到るまでの間に反応時間を稼ぐための十分な距離も確保されるので、従来よりもアンモニアの生成効率が大幅に改善されることになる。
At this time, the
また、パティキュレートフィルタ1を強制再生するに際しては、従来と同様に、エンジン側でのポスト噴射等により排気ガス5中にHCを添加し、その添加したHCを酸化触媒2で酸化反応させて反応熱により排気ガス5を昇温し、これによりパティキュレートフィルタ1の触媒床温度を上げて捕集済みパティキュレートの燃焼除去を図るようにすれば良い。
When the
尚、パティキュレートフィルタ1には、強制再生時に限らず排気ガス5の熱が効率良く蓄えられ、しかも、運転状態の変化により排気ガス5の温度が急激に低下しても、パティキュレートフィルタ1に蓄えられた熱により尿素水7の分解反応が暫時継続されて選択還元型触媒3へアンモニアが供給され続けるので、排気ガス5の温度が低くなる運転領域での選択還元型触媒3のNOx低減率が従来よりも向上されることになる。
The
従って、上記形態例によれば、パティキュレートフィルタ1と選択還元型触媒3との間の排気管4に小径部を長く形成して尿素水7の添加を行うようにしたり、この小径部内に複数枚の邪魔板を互い違いに配置してミキサを構成したりしなくても、アンモニアの生成効率を従来より大幅に改善することができるので、排気浄化装置としての全長を短縮して車両への搭載性を向上することができ、しかも、流路断面積を絞り込む小径部が不要となることで圧力損失を小さく抑えることもできる。
Therefore, according to the above-described embodiment, a small diameter portion is formed long in the
また、選択還元型触媒3で処理しきれずに未処理のまま前記選択還元型触媒3を通り抜けてしまった余剰のアンモニアをNH3スリップ触媒9で酸化処理することができ、余剰のアンモニアが未処理のまま排気ガス5と一緒に車外へ排出されてしまう虞れを未然に防止することができる。
In addition, surplus ammonia that has not been treated with the selective
図2は本発明の別の形態例を示すもので、本形態例においては、尿素水7の添加位置とパティキュレートフィルタ1との間に、尿素水添加装置6により添加した尿素水7をパティキュレートフィルタ1の入側端面の広範囲に拡散し得るよう複数の拡散孔10を開口した拡散板11を配設するようにしており、特に、ここで例示している拡散板11には、排気ガス5を半径方向外側へ案内するガイド翼12を各拡散孔10の縁部に付設した形式としている。
FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the
このようにすれば、排気ガス5の流れ方向に長さをとらずにコンパクトに配置することが可能な拡散板11により、添加した尿素水7をパティキュレートフィルタ1の入側端面の広範囲に拡散することができるので、車両への搭載性に悪影響を及ぼすことなくアンモニアの生成効率の更なる向上を図ることができる。
In this way, the added
尚、本発明の排気浄化装置は、上述の形態例にのみ限定されるものではなく、拡散板に放射状に拡散孔を開口して排気ガスの旋回流を形成し得るようなガイド翼を付けるようにしても良いこと、その他、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲内において種々変更を加え得ることは勿論である。 The exhaust emission control device according to the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but is provided with guide vanes that can form a swirling flow of exhaust gas by opening diffusion holes radially in the diffusion plate. Of course, various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
