Objective
The NOx reduction technique that seems most promising for diesel engine applications is selective catalytic reduction with urea since it is not sensitive to sulphur in the fuel. In this project the focus is on new catalyst materials which will expand the active temperature window towards lower temperatures and also on developing a heat management system that will keep the catalyst at its most active temperature region. The goal of the project is to show the potential for an urea based SCR system to comply with the Euro-IV and Eur-V legislative objectives year 2005 and 2008 for heavy duty diesel engines at transient urban driving as well as highway driving with an optimal fuel consumption. The project also includes development of NH3 and NOx sensors that will be instrumental for the OBD and feed back on a closed loop emission control system, in order to reduce the amount of reducing agent and consequently the NH3 slip.
