Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an exhaust purification device of a compression ignition type internal combustion engine.
  • an internal combustion engine arranging in an engine exhaust passage an NO X storage catalyst storing NO X contained in exhaust gas when the air-fuel ratio of the inflowing exhaust gas is lean and releasing the stored NO X when the air-fuel ratio of the inflowing exhaust gas becomes a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio or rich.
  • NO X formed when burning fuel under a lean air-fuel ratio is stored in the NO X storage catalyst.
  • the NO X storage catalyst approaches saturation of the NO X storage ability, the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas is temporarily made rich, whereby NO X is released from the NO X storage catalyst and reduced.
  • the exhaust gas also contains SO X .
  • This SO X is stored together with the NO X in the NO X storage catalyst.
  • This SO X is not released from the NO X storage catalyst by just making the exhaust gas a rich air-fuel ratio. Therefore, the amount of SO X stored in the NO X storage catalyst gradually increases. As a result, the storable NO X amount ends up gradually decreasing.
  • the SO X trap catalyst can be regenerated by raising the temperature of the SO X trap catalyst.
  • the amount of SO X trapped by this SO X trap catalyst is much greater than the amount of SO X stored in the NO X storage catalyst, and thus, if the SO X trap catalyst is excessively raised in temperature even a little, the trapped SO X is released all at once. As a result, the SO X concentration in the exhaust gas flowing out from the SO X trap catalyst ends up becoming extremely high.
  • SO X is itself harmful, and if the temperature becomes higher, SO X sometimes changes to harmful hydrogen sulfide H 2 S. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid the concentration of SO X in the exhaust gas, which is exhausted into the outside air, from becoming high. That is, when using an SO X trap catalyst, it is necessary to hold the concentration of SO X in the exhaust gas flowing out from the SO X trap catalyst within a constant limit.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a compression ignition type internal combustion engine able to hold the SO X concentration in the exhaust gas flowing out from the SO X trap catalyst at a certain limit or lower.

  • This NO X storage catalyst 14 is comprised of a substrate on which for example a catalyst carrier comprised of alumina is carried.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates the cross-section of the surface part of this catalyst carrier 60 .
  • the catalyst carrier 60 carries a precious metal catalyst 61 diffused on the surface.
  • the catalyst carrier 60 is formed with a layer of an NO X absorbent 62 on its surface.
  • the precious metal catalyst 61 platinum Pt is used.
  • the ingredient forming the NO X absorbent 62 for example, at least one element selected from potassium K, sodium Na, cesium Cs, and other such alkali metals, barium Ba, calcium Ca, and other such alkali earths, lanthanum La, yttrium Y, and other rare earths is used.
  • the ratio of the air and fuel (hydrocarbons) fed into the engine intake passage, combustion chamber 2 , and exhaust passage upstream of the NO X storage catalyst 14 is called the “air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas”
  • an NO X absorption and release action such that the NO X absorbent 62 absorbs the NO X when the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas is lean and releases the absorbed NO X when the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas falls is performed.
  • the reducing agent feed valve 23 feeds the reducing agent to make the exhaust gas a rich air-fuel ratio or stoichiometric air-fuel ratio
  • the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas falls, so the reaction proceeds in the reverse direction (NO 3 ⁇ ⁇ NO 2 ), therefore the nitrate ions NO 3 in the NO X absorbent 62 are released in the form of NO 2 from the NO X absorbent 62 .
  • the released NO X is reduced by the unburned HC and CO contained in the exhaust gas.
  • the NO X in the exhaust gas is absorbed in the NO X absorbent 62 .
  • the NO X absorbent 62 eventually ends up becoming saturated in NO X absorption ability, therefore the NO X absorbent 62 ends up becoming unable to absorb the NO X . Therefore, in this embodiment of the present invention, before the NO X absorbent 62 becomes saturated in absorption ability, the reducing agent is fed from the reducing agent feed valve 23 to make the exhaust gas temporarily rich air-fuel ratio and thereby make the NO X absorbent 62 release the NO X .
  • the exhaust gas contains SO X , that is, SO 2 . If this SO 2 flows into the NO X storage catalyst 14 , this SO 2 is oxidized on the platinum Pt 61 and becomes SO 3 . Next, this SO 3 is absorbed in the NO X absorbent 62 , bonds with the barium oxide BaO, is diffused in the form of sulfate ions SO 4 2 ⁇ in the NO X absorbent 62 , and forms stable sulfate BaSO 4 .
  • the NO X absorbent 62 has a strong basicity, so this sulfate BaSO 4 is stable and hard to break down. If just making the exhaust gas rich air-fuel ratio, the sulfate BaSO 4 remains as is without breaking down. Therefore, in the NO X absorbent 62 , the sulfate BaSO 4 increases along with the elapse of time, therefore the NO X amount which the NO X absorbent 62 can absorb falls along with the elapse of time.
  • the NO X absorbent 62 releases SO X .
  • the NO X absorbent 62 only releases a little SO X at a time. Therefore, to make the NO X absorbent 62 release all of the absorbed SO X , it is necessary to make the air-fuel ratio rich over a long time, therefore there is the problem that a large amount of fuel or reducing agent becomes necessary.
  • the SO X trap catalyst 13 is arranged upstream of the NO X storage catalyst 14 to trap the SO X contained in the exhaust gas by this SO X trap catalyst 13 and thereby prevent SO X from flowing into the NO X storage catalyst 14 .
  • this SO X trap catalyst 13 will be explained.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates the cross-section of the surface part of a substrate 65 of this SO X trap catalyst 13 .
  • the substrate 65 is formed with a coat layer 66 on its surface.
  • This coat layer 66 carries a precious metal catalyst 67 diffused on its surface.
  • platinum is used as the precious metal catalyst 67 .
  • the ingredient forming the coat layer 66 for example, at least one element selected from potassium K, sodium Na, cesium Cs, and other such alkali metals, barium Ba, calcium Ca, and other such alkali earths, lanthanum La, yttrium Y, and other rare earths is used. That is, the coat layer 66 of the SO X trap catalyst 13 exhibits a strong basicity.
  • the SO X contained in the exhaust gas that is, SO 2
  • the platinum Pt 67 as shown in FIG. 3 then is trapped in the coat layer 66 . That is, the SO 2 diffuses in the form of sulfate ions SO 4 2 ⁇ in the coat layer 66 to form a sulfate.
  • the coat layer 66 exhibits a strong basicity. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3 , part of the SO 2 contained in the exhaust gas is directly trapped in the coat layer 66 .
  • the shading in the coat layer 66 shows the concentration of the trapped SO X .
  • the SO X concentration in the coat layer 66 is highest near the surface of the coat layer 66 . The further in, the lower it becomes. If the SO X concentration near the surface of the coat layer 66 increases, the surface of the coat layer 66 weakens in basicity and the SO X trap ability weakens.
  • the SO X trap rate if the ratio of the amount of the SO X trapped in the SO X trap catalyst 13 to the amount of the SO X in the exhaust gas is called the “SO X trap rate”, if the basicity of the surface of the coat layer 66 is weakened, the SO X trap rate falls along with that.
  • FIG. 4 shows the change along with time of the SO X trap rate.
  • the SO X trap rate is first close to about 100 percent, but rapidly falls as time elapses. Therefore, in the present invention, when the SO X trap rate falls below a predetermined rate, a temperature raising control for raising the temperature of the SO X trap catalyst 13 under a lean or rich exhaust gas air-fuel ratio is performed and thereby the SO X trap rate is restored.
  • the SO X present concentrated near the surface of the coat layer 66 diffuses toward the deep part of the coat layer 66 so that the concentration becomes uniform. That is, the nitrates formed in the coat layer 66 change from an unstable state where they concentrate near the surface of the coat layer 66 to the stable state where they are diffused evenly across the entire inside of the coat layer 66 . If the SO X present near the surface of the coat layer 66 diffuses toward the deep part of the coat layer 66 , the SO X concentration near the surface of the coat layer 66 falls. Therefore, when the temperature raising control of the SO X trap catalyst 13 has ended, the SO X trap rate is restored.
  • the SO X trap rate can be restored. That is, if making the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing into the SO X trap catalyst 13 in the state of raising the temperature of the SO X trap catalyst 13 rich, the trapped SO X is released from the SO X trap catalyst 13 and therefore the SO X trap rate is restored. Therefore, both when making the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing into the SO X trap catalyst 13 lean and rich in the state raising the temperature of the SO X trap catalyst 13 , the SO X trap rate can be restored.
