Integrated System For Controlling Diesel Engine Emissions
US Patent:
6615580, Sep 9, 2003
Filed:
Sep 24, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/961442
Inventors:
Magdi K. Khair - San Antonio TX
Cynthia C. Webb - San Antonio TX
Gordon J. Bartley - San Antonio TX
Christopher A. Sharp - San Antonio TX
Cynthia C. Webb - San Antonio TX

Assignee:
Southwest Research Institute - San Antonio TX
International Classification:
F01N 300
US Classification:
60286, 60274, 60285, 60288, 60311
Abstract:
A method for controlling diesel engine emissions is disclosed. The diesel engines exhaust system has a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and a lean NO trap (LNT). The DPF is a filter and is monitored to determine the need for regeneration. The LNT is monitored to determine the need for regeneration or desulfurization. A fuel injector is used to inject fuel upstream of the LNT under certain conditions, and a bypass may be used to bypass exhaust around the DPF to provide richer or hotter exhaust to the LNT. The sensor outputs and controls for providing the appropriate heat or fuel mix for regeneration and desulfurization may be controlled with enhancements to existing engine control circuitry.

International Classification:
F01N 300
US Classification:
60286, 60274, 60276, 60285, 60288, 60295, 60297
Abstract:
A method for controlling diesel engine emissions is disclosed. The diesel engines exhaust system has a NO oxidation catalyst, a diesel particulate filter (DPF), and a lean NO trap (LNT). The DPF is monitored to determine the need for regeneration. The LNT is monitored to determine the need for regeneration or desulfurization. A fuel injector is used to inject fuel upstream of the LNT under certain conditions, and a bypass may be used to bypass exhaust around the oxidation catalyst to provide richer or hotter exhaust to the LNT.

Method And Apparatus For Testing Catalytic Converter Durability
US Patent:
7140874, Nov 28, 2006
Filed:
Aug 6, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/213890
Inventors:
Gordon J. Bartley - San Antonio TX, US
Cynthia C. Webb - San Antonio TX, US
Cynthia C. Webb - San Antonio TX, US
Assignee:
Southwest Research Institute - San Antonio TX
International Classification:
F23M 9/00
US Classification:
431185, 431181, 431350, 731181
Abstract:
The present application relates in general to an apparatus and to methods for testing the performance of an automotive catalytic converter under conditions simulating those which occur in motor vehicles over extended driving conditions. The application provides a novel swirl plate and a novel fuel injector which enable the burner to run stoichiometric for extended periods of time.
