Abstract:
The invention pertains to a catalysed particulate filter provided in its entire dispersion side and within its partition walls with a first catalyst being active in selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides, and in its entire permeate side with a second catalyst combination with a catalyst being active in oxidation of ammonia mixed with a catalyst being active in oxidation of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons and a method for its preparation. The mean particle size of the first catalyst is smaller than the mean pore diameter of the longitudinal porous walls, and the mean particle size of the second catalyst combination is larger than the mean pore diameter of the longitudinal walls. In the example, the first catalyst is a silica aluminium phosphate SAPO-34 promoted with 2% copper and the second catalyst is a mixture of platinum and palladium (molar ratio 3:1) supported on alumina particles and beta zeolite powder with 1.0% copper.
Abstract:
The invention provides a process for purification of an exhaust gas comprising nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and particulate matters from an internal combustion engine comprising the step of contacting the exhaust gas with one or more catalysts on one or more cross corrugated wire mesh sheets (5) being arranged between two or more gas impermeable cross corrugated sheets (4). The exhaust gas is contacted with one or more catalysts being coated in different zones on the one or more cross corrugated wire mesh sheets (5). Particulate matters in the exhaust gas are retained in a zone of the gas impermeable sheets (4), where the zone is porous and optionally coated with an oxidation catalyst. The exhaust gas from the combustion engine can be heated by the purified exhaust gas. The invention further comprises an apparatus for the purification process of an exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine.
