Definitions
- the invention relates to methods that permit a diesel engine to operate efficiently with low particulate emissions.
- Particulate emissions e.g., PM 10 and PM 2.5, particularly from diesel engines, are considered health risks by a growing number of regulatory and health organizations.
- NO * no technology available to reduce diesel particulate emissions to less than 0.1 g/bhp-Hr while also controlling NO * and not creating servicing and reliability problems or requiring ultra-low sulfur (less than 50 ppm) fuel.
- Diesel engines provide advantages in fuel economy and are favored for this reason. However, there is a tradeoff between economy on the one hand, which favors complete combustion, and emissions of NO x/ produced in large quantities under these conditions. Moreover, there is a tradeoff between NO * and particulates and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions. There is no known technology that is available to take full advantage of diesel economy without suffering ⁇ penalty in terms of increased particulate and/or NO x emissions.
- HC hydrocarbon
- EGR exhaust gas recirculation
- ITR injection timing retard
- particulate traps for diesel engines has become common due to an inherent trade-off between NO x and particulates - when actions are taken to reduce one, the other increases.
- the use of a trap could permit NO x to be reduced to a great extent by techniques such as exhaust gas recirculation, engine timing adjustments, or other known technologies.
- the capture of particulates in a trap can be a problem due to loss in engine efficiency when the pressure drop across the trap becomes too high.
- trap regeneration by burning the particulates can cause physical damage to the trap and requires the use of catalyst coatings, fuel additives or supplemental heaters to assist regeneration. Low sulfur fuel is also required for most catalyzed systems.
- Oxidizers are not effective at removing particulates because they principally reduce the SOF; and while traps are effective at collecting particulates the are troubled with inherent regeneration and durability problems and high back pressures.
- the method of the invention comprises: equipping a diesel engine with a catalyzed particulate oxidizer having an inlet, an outlet, an enlarged central chamber and a plurality of parallel plates within the chamber, the plates having catalyzed, undulating surfaces provided to create large number of points of contact for particulates in exhaust; operating the diesei engine under conditions that create an exhaust containing particulates; and passing the exhaust through the catalyzed particulate oxidizer.
- the catalyzed particulate oxidizer is also claimed.
- the fuel will contain a fuel-soluble organo-platinum group metal compound, e.g., comprising a platinum group metal selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium, rhodium and mixtures of two or more of these.
- a fuel-soluble organo-platinum group metal compound e.g., comprising a platinum group metal selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium, rhodium and mixtures of two or more of these.
- an effective platinum group metal compound can be added to the exhaust gases before the trap or combustion air.
- cerium, iron, copper, manganese or combinations of any of these with platinum can be used to reduce engine out particulate loading, including both the soluble and carbon soot fractions of the soot prior to the oxidizer.
- the resulting metal activated soot will also promote enhanced oxidation when it contacts the catalyzed surfaces.
- the engine is operated with exhaust gas recirculation and/or injection timing retard.
- Figure 1 is a schematic representation of a diesel engine with an exhaust system including a catalyzed particulate oxidizer in accord with the invention
- Figure 2 is a schematic representation of a catalyzed particulate oxidizer in accord with the invention.
- Figure 3 is an enlarged, cut-away schematic representation of a portion of a catalyzed particulate oxidizer in accord with the invention.
- Figure 4 is a schematic representation of a diesel engine operating with exhaust gas recirculation and an exhaust system including a catalyzed particulate oxidizer in accord with the invention.
- Diesel engine is meant to include all compression-ignition engines, for both mobile (including marine) and stationary power plants and of the two-stroke per cycle, four-stroke per cycle and rotary types.
- hydrocarbon fuel is meant to include all of those liquid and gaseous fuels prepared from “distillate fuels” or “petroleum”.
- distillate fuel means all of those products prepared by the distillation of petroleum or petroleum fractions and residues.
- petroleum is meant in its usual sense to include all of those materials regardless of source normally included within the meaning of the term, including hydrocarbon materials, regardless of viscosity, that are recovered from fossil fuels.
- diesel fuel includes “distillate fuels” including diesel fuels meeting the ASTM definition for diesel fuels or others even though they are not wholly comprised of distillates and can comprise alcohols, ethers, organo-nitro compounds and the like (e.g., methanol, ethanol, diethyl ether, methyl ethyl ether, nitromethane). Also contemplated, are emulsions and liquid fuels derived from vegetable or mineral sources such as corn, alfalfa, shale, and coal.
- These fuels may also contain other additives known to those skilled in the art, including dyes, cetane improvers, anti-oxidants such as 2,6-di-tertiary-butyl-4-methylphenol, corrosion inhibitors, rust inhibitors such as alkylated succinic acids and anhydrides, bacteriostatic agents, gum inhibitors, metal deactivators, upper cylinder lubricants, antiicing agents and the like.
- additives known to those skilled in the art, including dyes, cetane improvers, anti-oxidants such as 2,6-di-tertiary-butyl-4-methylphenol, corrosion inhibitors, rust inhibitors such as alkylated succinic acids and anhydrides, bacteriostatic agents, gum inhibitors, metal deactivators, upper cylinder lubricants, antiicing agents and the like.
- FIG. 1 shows a diesel engine 10 fed fuel from a tank 11.
- the fuel is preferably catalyzed with a platinum group metal compound or one or more other catalyst compounds, such as cerium, iron or manganese. These latter material can be used alone or with a platinum group metal catalyst.
- Exhaust from the engine will pass through exhaust pipe 12, carrying catalytic metals released from the fuel additive catalyst compositions of cerium, and preferably also platinum, to a catalyzed particulate oxidizer (CPO) 14.
- CPO catalyzed particulate oxidizer
- the CPO can be catalyzed either as installed or by building up a catalyst deposit by operating the engine with a platinum group metal fuel additive.
- the CPO of the invention is schematically shown in longitudinal cross- section in Figure 2,
- the CPO 14 is shown as having an inlet 16, an outlet 18 and an enlarged central chamber 20.
- Within the chamber 20 are a plurality of essentially parallel plates 22 with catalyzed, undulating surfaces provided to create large number of points of contact for particulates in exhaust which enters at 16 and exits at 18.
- the plates will preferably be made of a ceramic, a silica-alumina composition such as cordierite, silicon carbide, glass or metal fibers, porous glass or metal substrates, or the like, or a suitable metal such as alloys of the type used in automotive exhaust systems.
- suitable catalysts are those known to be useful for catalyzing traps and pass-through catalytic oxidizers.
- platinum group metals such as platinum, palladium and rhodium.
- the oxidizer may or may not be precoated with an alumina washcoat to provide high surface area prior to catalyzing. It is an advantage of the invention that the washcoat is not required.
- FIG. 3 schematically shows a section of a CPO enlarged to illustrate the dynamics of the process.
- Channels 24 are formed between individual plates 22.
- the channels are sufficiently wide to permit the exhaust gases to pass through with minimal pressure drop.
- the exact configuration of the channels will vary depending on many design and manufacturing variables.
- the peaks 26 and the valleys 28 formed in the sheets cause the gases to change direction frequently,
- the particulates, even though small, have a mass that causes them to impact the walls of the channels formed by the plates while the gases easily turn following the undulations in the plates.
- the particulates are not collected, but are oxidized at least partially by frequent impact with catalyzed surfaces of the plates 22.
- the undulations in the drawings are seen to be of chevron shape, but other suitable shapes, including sinusoidal, flat-topped chevrons, and the like can also be employed.
- the plates could be assembled into 2 to 5 sections, each filling the cross section of the chamber, but extending only a portion of its length.
- the sections would be separated by a space of preferably less than 5 inches, e.g, 0.25 to 3 inches.
- the fuel will preferably also contain a fuel-soluble organo-platinum group metal compound, e.g., of platinum, palladium or rhodium.
- a fuel-soluble organo-platinum group metal compound e.g., of platinum, palladium or rhodium.

S. Patent Application Serial No. 08/597,517, filed January 31 , 1996, by Peter-Hoblyn, Valentine and Sprague, hereby incorporated by reference.
- a blend of these compounds can be used with one or more other platinum group metal compounds such as soaps, acetyl acetonates, alcoholates, ⁇ -diketonates, and sulfonates, e.g., of the type which will be described in more detail below.
- platinum group metal compounds such as soaps, acetyl acetonates, alcoholates, ⁇ -diketonates, and sulfonates, e.g., of the type which will be described in more detail below.
- the platinum group metal compound suitable for use as a fuel or gas- borne additive and/or other catalyst additive material can be added in any manner effective for its intended purpose, such as by adding it to the fuel in bulk storage, to the fuel in a tank associated with the engine, or by continuous or intermittent addition, such as by a suitable metering device, e.g., 27 from tank 29 in Figure 1 , into: the fuel line leading to the engine or the fuel return line from the engine, or in the form of a vapor, gas or aerosol into the air intake, the exhaust gases before the CPO, exhaust gases after the CPO but before recirculation to the engine, or a mixing chamber or equivalent means wherein the exhaust gases are mixed with incoming air.
- a suitable metering device e.g., 27 from tank 29 in Figure 1
- platinum group metal catalyst compositions are preferably employed at concentrations of less than 1 part by weight of platinum group metal per million parts by volume fuel (ppm).
- ppm platinum group metal per million parts by volume fuel
- all "parts per million” figures are on a weight to volume basis, i.e., grams/million cubic centimeters (which can also be expressed as milligrams/liter), and percentages are given by weight, unless otherwise indicated.
- Auxiliary catalysts are employed at levels effective for their intended purpose, preferably at levels of from 1 to 200 ppm of the fuel utilized, e.g., 5 to 60 ppm.
- auxiliary catalytic materials are organometallic salts of manganese, magnesium, calcium, iron, copper, cerium, sodium, lithium and potassium, which can be employed at suitable levels, e.g., from about 1 to about 100 ppm and preferably 20 to 60 ppm of the catalyst metal in combination with the platinum group metal catalyst in diesel fuels.
- alcoholates e.g., selected from the group consisting of ste ⁇ r ⁇ tes, p ⁇ lmit ⁇ tes, l ⁇ ur ⁇ tes, t ⁇ ll ⁇ tes, n ⁇ pth ⁇ n ⁇ tes, other fatty acid soaps, and mixtures of two or more of these, of copper, calcium, magnesium, manganese, iron, cerium, sodium, lithium and potassium compounds as are known as fuel soluble and useful fuel additives.
- soaps e.g., selected from the group consisting of ste ⁇ r ⁇ tes, p ⁇ lmit ⁇ tes, l ⁇ ur ⁇ tes, t ⁇ ll ⁇ tes, n ⁇ pth ⁇ n ⁇ tes, other fatty acid soaps, and mixtures of two or more of these, of copper, calcium, magnesium, manganese, iron, cerium, sodium, lithium and potassium compounds as are known as fuel soluble and useful fuel additives.
- cerium III acetylacetonate and various cerium soaps such as cerium III napthanate, cerium octoate, cerium stearate, cerium neodecanoate, and the like.
- the dosage level will be at a level of from about 1 to 100 ppm cerium per million parts of fuel (mg per liter), and preferably in the range of from about 5 to 30 ppm, preferably less than 20 ppm.
- FIG. 4 shows, schematically, a diesel engine 10 operating with exhaust gas recirculation and an exhaust system including a catalyzed particulate oxidizer 14 in accord with the invention.
- combustion air from intake 13 at high or low pressure, heated or cooled
- exhaust gases from line 32 separated from the main exhaust gas stream 34
- one or more cylinders of engine 10 e.g., either diesei or lean-bum gasoline.
- the proportion of exhaust gases recirculated to the engine for forming a combustion air mixture will be effective to lower the production of NO x by the engine utilizing the combustion air mixture as compared to combustion air not containing exhaust gases.
- from about 0 to about 30% can be recirculated.
- the combustion air mixture is typically compressed prior to introduction into engine cylinder(s) wherein it is further compressed, causing heating.
- the appropriate fuel is injected into the cylinders following compression.
- the fuel is then combusted with the combustion air mixture to produce exhaust gases that are discharged through exhaust stream 34.
- the cycle just described is repeated continuously as the engine continues to run in the EGR mode.
- EGR lowers the combustion temperature and oxygen to the combustion chamber and reduces the amount of NO x produced, but as has been observed, it increases production of particulates and unburned hydrocarbons - again, the compromise between NO x and complete combustion.
- Downstream of exhaust stream 34 is a CPO unitl4.
- the CPO is effective within a temperature window of from about 150 to about 650° C, depending on the catalyst.
- the exhaust temperature is maintained at the temperatures most preferred for the CPO.
- NO x conversion by EGR is practical, and the EGR system is therefore operated.
- ITR can be used alone or in conjunction with EGR to reduce NO x .
- Figure 4 also illustrates a control system of a type useful to maintain the proper operation of EGR and CPO units.
- the controller 36 can, if desired, measure any of a number of parameters to assure optimum NO x reduction and particulate oxidation.
- the temperature of the exhaust (sensor means 38) is one parameter of importance.
- Engine load is another key parameter (sensor means 40), and this or like factor can be monitored to determine the amount of NO x being generated and the need for NO x -reduction by EGR or engine timing changes (hot shown).
- the sensing means provided for sensing operating parameters indicative of conditions effective for NO x reduction, sense the appropriate operating parameter and generate an operation signal representative thereof.
- the controller 36 provides control means for comparing one or more operation signals to appropriate reference value(s) and determines if NO x reduction can be effectively operated. The controller then generates appropriate control signals representative of the result of the comparison. Means ' are provided to be responsive to the control signals for operating the EGR unit (and/or engine timing changes), as called for by the controller. Figure 1 shows, as representative of these latter means, valve 42.
- the EGR unit and/or engine timing adjustments can be controlled, in response to a feed-forward controller in response to a number of measured parameters, including: engine load as represented by various mechanical or electronic measures such as fuel flow, tack or pulse width, engine speed, intake air temperature; barometric pressure; intake air humidity; exhaust gas temperature and/or other parameters effective for particular engines.
- trim or feed back control can be provided based on residual gas species following the CPO, e.g., the level of NO x , HC or CO. If desired, feedback control can be employed to trim the system in response to specific gas species, or any other measurable engine or exhaust gas property.
