- the inventors of the present application have first studied diligently the relationship between the injection timing and depth of a rich spike and the NOx purification performance using a NOx storage reduction catalyst. As a result, it was found that the reduction efficiency was high when a rich spike was injected before the NOx storage amount was saturated, and the reduction efficiency by the rich spike was the highest when the storage amount was 50% or less of the saturated NOx storage amount. Found high.
- a catalyst that can store NOx equal to or greater than the saturated NOx storage amount of the conventional NOx storage-reduction type catalyst even when the storage amount is 50% or less of the saturated NOx storage amount was used.
- the present invention should be noted has been made by the selection of such a finding and optimal catalyst "Saturated N0 X storage amount" is the NO after the stored NOx sufficiently reduced during the catalyst began introduced into the catalyst It means the total amount of NOx stored in the catalyst from the time when the NOx concentration at the catalyst outlet gas reaches the NOx concentration at the catalyst inlet gas. In the present invention, the amount of NOx occluded in the catalyst per 1 liters in terms of N0 2 wt seeking this value.
- the NOx occlusion amount of the actual NOx storage reduction catalyst is N0 2 as 5 g or more NOx storage reduction catalyst in 500 ° C, the NOx occlusion amount of the actual NOx storage reduction catalyst
- the rich spike is controlled so as to be 50% or less of the saturated NOx storage amount. This makes it possible to reduce most of the stored NOx even if the frequency of the rich spike is equal to or longer than before, and the reduction efficiency is greatly improved. Therefore, both improvement in fuel efficiency and improvement in NOx purification rate can be satisfied.
- the upper limit of the saturated NOx storage amount is determined by the amount of NOx storage material used.
- the upper limit is 184 g (2 moles of barium carbonate) per liter of catalyst. Value. This is because even if more barium is supported, the effect is saturated, and the noble metal carried is covered with barium, so that the activity is reduced.
- 500 ° is saturated NOx occlusion amount is a 5 g or more NOx storage reduction catalyst as N0 2 in C, as described in JP-A-10- 249199, the starting materials magnesium salt and aluminum Niu arm alkoxide at least one NOx storage and support of a composite oxide represented by the MgO-A1 2 0 3 which is prepared by a sol-gel method, which is selected from alkali metals, Al force re-earth metals and rare earth element supported on a carrier as A material containing a material and a noble metal can be used.
- MgO-A1 2 0 first composite oxide represented by 3 and Ti0 2 - Zr0 has also preferable to use a NOx occlusion reduction type catalyst using become more carriers and a second composite oxide represented by 2 .
- Mg0 -Al 2 0 3 composite oxide, such as a spinel compound has higher basicity than alumina, is improved NOx storage capacity in a high temperature range. Therefore, use of such a carrier can be saturated NOx occlusion amount is a 5 g or more NOx storage reduction catalyst as N0 2 in the high temperature region of 500 ° C.
- the saturation NOx absorption amount in 500 ° C is less than 5 g as N0 2, in order to continue to use such that the NOx occlusion amount of 50% or less has to shorten the interval between Ritsuchi spike.
- the amount used to control the combustion state of the engine to the fuel-rich air-fuel ratio increases, and the amount used to reduce NOx decreases.
- the effect of improving fuel efficiency is hardly realized.
- the NOx storage material and precious metal are supported on the above-mentioned carrier to form a NOx storage reduction catalyst. It is.
- the NOx storage material an element selected from alkali metals such as K, Na, Li, and Cs, alkaline earth metals such as Ba, Ca, Sr, and Mg, and rare earth elements such as La, Sc, and Y are used.

- the above-mentioned NOx storage reduction catalyst is brought into contact with exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine capable of selecting operation at a fuel lean air-fuel ratio and operation at a fuel stoichiometric or rich air-fuel ratio. Since the exhaust gas burned at the fuel-lean air-fuel ratio becomes a lean atmosphere of reducing components, NO in the exhaust gas is oxidized on the catalyst to NOx and stored in the NOx storage material on the catalyst. When the exhaust gas becomes rich in reducing components by the injection of rich spikes, NOx stored in the NOx storage material is released and reduced by reducing components such as CO and HC in the exhaust gas.

Injecting a rich spike in a state where the saturated NOx storage amount is not enough in this way will greatly increase the NOx reduction efficiency and make it possible to reduce and purify most of the stored NOx.
- the saturated NOx storage capacity corresponds to the area of a square
- the square with a large area indicates catalyst A with a large amount of saturated NOx storage capacity
- the square with a small area indicates a catalyst B with a small area of saturated NOx storage capacity.
- the shaded area having the same area indicates the amount of stored NOx.
- catalyst A stores NOx at sites that are easily absorbed and released
- catalyst B carries NOx at sites that are easily stored and hardly released.
- the saturated NOx storage amount of the NOx storage reduction type catalyst is large, even when the rich spike is injected so that the NOx storage amount becomes 50% or less or 30% or less, the rich spike is introduced.
- the spacing can be as long or longer than conventional. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the problem of reduced fuel consumption.In this sense, the timing of applying the rich spike depends on the saturated NOx storage amount, but when the NOx storage amount is 50% or less, or 30% or less, 50% or 30% It is preferable to carry out the treatment when the amount reaches as close to% as possible.
- the exhaust gas purifying apparatus of the present invention which can surely carry out the exhaust gas purifying method of the present invention, includes a NOx storage reduction catalyst, NOx storage amount estimating means, air-fuel ratio adjusting means, and a control device.
- NOx storage reduction catalyst may be the same as those used in the exhaust gas purifying method of the present invention described above, as the saturated NOx occlusion amount is N0 2 at 500 ° C per catalyst volume 1 rate Torr 5 g or more are used.
- the NOx storage amount estimating means is a means for estimating the actual NOx storage amount of the NOx storage reduction catalyst.
- the amount of NOx stored and retained by the NOx storage reduction catalyst is the amount of NOx stored in the NOx storage reduction catalyst per unit time, and is proportional to the amount of NOx generated in the engine per unit time. .

- the atmosphere of the exhaust gas is changed by changing the timing, intake air amount, intake pressure, fuel supply amount, etc.
- the control device controls the air-fuel ratio adjusting means based on the estimated value estimated by the NOx storage amount estimation means so that the actual NOx storage amount becomes 50% or less of the saturated NOx storage amount. Used.
- the fuel-lean air-fuel ratio operation of the engine must be performed.
- the accumulated NOx amount stored in the NOx storage reduction catalyst is estimated by the NOx storage amount estimating means, and the accumulated NOx amount is known in advance.It is 50% or less or 30% or less of the saturated NOx storage amount of the NOx storage reduction catalyst.
