Abstract:
An exhaust after-treatment system includes a first set of exhaust after-treatment components, a second set of exhaust after-treatment components, an inlet to the exhaust after-treatment system, an outlet from the exhaust after-treatment system, and a valve and conduit arrangement configurable in a plurality of modes, in a first mode, exhaust gas entering the inlet flows through the second set of exhaust after-treatment components, then through the first set of exhaust after-treatment components, and then through the outlet. In a second mode, exhaust gas entering the inlet flows through the second set of exhaust after-treatment components without flowing through the first set of exhaust after-treatment components, and then through the outlet in a third mode, exhaust gas entering the inlet flows through the first set of exhaust after-treatment components, then through the second set of exhaust after-treatment components, and then through the outlet.
