OCE Informal Document No. 25 Ninth Plenary Meeting of the Working Group On Off-Cycle Emissions 11&12 January 2005 Palais des Nations, Geneva Active Regeneration Technology for DPF& NSR JASIC 9 th Plenary Meeting of WWH-OCE (11-12 January, 2005)
Needs for Active Regeneration • Regeneration of accumulated soot on DPF is critical for practical application. • Exh. Temp. in urban driving is not enough for continuous (passive) regeneration of CR-DPF or C-DPF. • Therefore Japanese DPF installed engines in production mostly apply active regeneration technologies. Those differ for each manufacturers’ design philosophy. • An example already presented in SAE2004-01-0824 by Japanese manufacturer. • Active regeneration is also necessary for de-sulfurization of NOx Storage Reduction (NSR) catalyst. Because sulfur in fuel is accumulated on NOx adsorbing material on the catalyst and poisons NOx reduction performance. 2

Technology Outline for DPF (SAE2004-01-0824) • Accumulated soot amount on DPF is estimated by ECU. When the amount exceed the threshold, active regeneration start to increase catalyst bed temp.. • In the active regeneration process, different injection events (after inj. or post inj.) and different air management occur using electronic control of fuel inj. equipment, turbo-charger and EGR devices. • The process continues several minutes, and during the process, different level of exhaust gases are emitted from tail-pipe. 4

Technology Outline for NSR • Fuel rich circumstances for catalyst bed necessary for NSR regeneration to remove sulfur. • In the active regeneration process, much sophisticated injection events (fuel injection to catalyst bed) and air management is necessary for fuel rich circumstances. • The process continues several minutes, and during the process, different level of exhaust gases are emitted from tail-pipe. 10

Summary • Active regeneration is necessary for both DPF and NSR technology. • The regeneration process continues several minutes, and in the process different emission characteristics should be observed. The duration and emission level depend on design. • We propose the different emission characteristics during active regeneration should be considered in OCE-GTR. 13
