Definitions
- the present application relates generally to selective catalytic reduction (SCR) exhaust aftertreatment apparatuses, systems and methods.
- SCR exhaust aftertreatment is an important technology for reducing emissions of oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) from internal combustion engines.
- NOx oxides of Nitrogen
- One embodiment is a unique SCR catalyst including multiple washcoat formulations with differing performance characteristics.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an exemplary exhaust aftertreatment system.
- FIG. 2 illustrates another exemplary exhaust aftertreatment system.
- FIG. 3 illustrates another exemplary exhaust aftertreatment system.
- FIG. 3 A illustrates an enlarged partial sectional view of an SCR catalyst of Fig. 3
- FIG. 4 illustrates another exemplary exhaust aftertreatment system.
- FIG. 4A illustrates an enlarged partial sectional view of an SCR catalyst of Fig. 4
- FIG. 5 illustrates another exemplary exhaust aftertreatment system.
- Fig. 5 A illustrates an enlarged partial sectional view of an SCRF catalyst of Fig. 5.
- Fig. 6 illustrates another exemplary exhaust aftertreatment system.
- Fig. 6A illustrates an enlarged partial sectional view of an SCRF catalyst of Fig.
- FIG. 7 illustrates another exemplary exhaust aftertreatment system.
- FIG. 8 illustrates another exemplary exhaust aftertreatment system.
- FIG. 9 illustrates graphs depicting the performance differences of a plurality of combinations of catalyst washcoat formulations.
- system 100 receives a flow of exhaust output by an internal combustion engine (not illustrated) such as a diesel engine.
- the flow of exhaust travels through an oxidation catalyst 104, which is structured to oxidize exhaust constituents such hydrocarbons, and a diesel particulate filter (DPF) 106 which is structured to remove particulate constituent matter from the flow of exhaust.
- the oxidation catalyst may be structured to provide cold temperature hydrocarbon (HC) and NOx storage.
- System 100 further includes a doser 108 which is structured to introduce reductant into the flow of exhaust.
- the reductant comprises an aqueous solution of urea such as diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) that decomposes into ammonia after injection into the exhaust flow.
- the reductant may comprise a gaseous reductant such as gaseous ammonia.
- SCR catalyst 1 10 further details of which are described below. From SCR catalyst 1 10 the flow of exhaust proceeds to ammonia slip catalyst (ASC) 1 14. Treated exhaust is then output to the ambient environment through as indicated by arrow 1 16.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIVE EMBODIMENTS
[0017] With reference to Fig. 1 there is illustrated an exemplary exhaust aftertreatment system 100. As indicated by arrow 102, system 100 receives a flow of exhaust output by an internal combustion engine (not illustrated) such as a diesel engine. The flow of exhaust travels through an oxidation catalyst 104, which is structured to oxidize exhaust constituents such hydrocarbons, and a diesel particulate filter (DPF) 106 which is structured to remove particulate constituent matter from the flow of exhaust. In certain embodiments the oxidation catalyst may be structured to provide cold temperature hydrocarbon (HC) and NOx storage.
[0018] System 100 further includes a doser 108 which is structured to introduce reductant into the flow of exhaust. In certain preferred embodiments the reductant comprises an aqueous solution of urea such as diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) that decomposes into ammonia after injection into the exhaust flow. In further embodiments the reductant may comprise a gaseous reductant such as gaseous ammonia. The combined flow of exhaust and reductant is provided to an SCR catalyst 1 10 further details of which are described below. From SCR catalyst 1 10 the flow of exhaust proceeds to ammonia slip catalyst (ASC) 1 14. Treated exhaust is then output to the ambient environment through as indicated by arrow 1 16.
[0019] SCR catalyst 110 includes a front catalyst brick 1 1 1 and a rear catalyst brick 1 12.
Catalyst bricks 11 1 and 1 12 comprise carrier structures defining a plurality of flow channels through which exhaust gasses may pass. A catalyst washcoat is provided on surfaces of the flow channels and is exposed to the exhaust passing through the flow channels. In certain preferred forms catalyst bricks 1 1 1 and 112 are structured as an extruded ceramic monolithic substrates including a plurality of parallel channels separated by thin walls that are coated with a catalyst washcoat. In various forms the channels may be round or polygonal (e.g., square or hexagonal). Various other configurations of catalyst bricks 1 1 1 and 112 are also contemplated.
[0020] Front catalyst brick 111 and rear catalyst brick 1 12 are provided with distinct catalyst washcoat formulations having differing compositions and differing performance characteristics. In one aspect the ammonia storage density of the catalyst washcoat of front catalyst brick 11 1 is lower than the ammonia storage density of the catalyst washcoat of the rear catalyst brick 112. Table 1 below lists several non-limiting examples of combinations of catalyst washcoat formulations that may be utilized for catalyst brick 111 and catalyst brick 112
such that catalyst brick 1 11 includes the Composition A and catalyst brick 112 includes the Composition B in each of the example combinations.

[0021] It shall be appreciated that each the foregoing example combinations of catalyst washcoat formulations as implemented in the embodiments disclosed herein provides an upstream SCR catalyst formulation which is compositionally distinct from a downstream SCR catalyst composition as opposed to simply providing different washcoat loading or effective loading by virtue of more dense substrate structure. It shall further be appreciated that the upstream SCR catalyst N¾ storage may be substantially zero in certain embodiments, for example, in embodiments which utilize non-zeolite based catalyst formulations such as the Vanadia based formulations examples in Table 1 above.
[0022] It shall be appreciated that the Vanadia based formulations referred to herein are compositions including Vanadia as a constituent in the catalyst washcoat and possessing NOx conversion ability under various feed gas conditions. The Cu-zeolite and Fe-zeolite formulations referred to herein are compositions including Cu-zeolite or Fe-zeolite, respectively, as a constituent in the catalyst washcoat and possessing NOx conversion ability under various feed gas conditions.
[0023] It shall be further appreciated that ammonia storage density is a tunable parameter for a given catalyst washcoat composition. For example, for a given Cu-zeolite, by changing the copper amount or by incorporating a third element such as an alkaline earth element the ammonia storage density can be tuned to desired level. For a given Fe-zeolite, by changing the
iron or ferrous constituent amount or by incorporating a third element such as an alkaline earth elements the ammonia storage density can be tuned to desired level. As a further examples, ammonia storage density can be tuned by changing the catalyst composition (e.g., changing the ratio of Silica to alumina), using a structurally different zeolite types (e.g., those having structures providing greater or lesser ammonia adsorption density), and/or varying the aging conditions of the catalyst washcoat. Combinations of these and other tuning techniques may also be utilized.
[0024] It shall also be appreciated that ammonia storage density can be expressed as in units of mass of stored ammonia per unit volume of catalyst or expressed as mass of stored ammonia per unit mass of catalyst. Furthermore, the low ammonia storage density and high ammonia storage density Cu-zeolite and Fe-zeolite formulations referred to herein connote relative differences in ammonia storage density. As notes above, various formulations of washcoats with a variety of ammonia storage properties can be prepared and utilized. Low ammonia storage density storage could range from as low as zero or substantially zero ammonia storage to relatively high ammonia storage. In one non-limiting example, low ammonia storage can be 0.1 to 1 grams of ammonia per liter of catalyst volume, and high ammonia storage can be 1-5 grams per liter of catalyst volume or other ranges greater than 1 gram per liter of catalyst volume.
