Abstract
NOx –SCR over Ag/ Al2O3 catalyst using ethanol (C2H5OH) as a reductant has proven its ability to significantly reduce NOx emission in a simulated engine exhaust gas environment. However the real engine exhaust gas environment is too complicated to be simulated. Therefore，the performance evaluation of the Ag/ Al2O3 catalyst in real exhaust gas environment is necessary. Moreover, the ethanol dosing device and control strategy also need to be validated for the practical use. In this paper, firstly the catalyst performance and its sulfur tolerance was tested on an engine test bench and the effect of the catalyst on PM emission was investigated. Then the aftertreatment system composed of Ag/Al2O3 catalyst + Cu/TiO2 catalyst + Pt/TiO2 catalyst and ethanol dosing control based on open loop control was designed, and the diesel engine emission with the aftertreatment system was tested according to ESC test cycle. Finally, the whole aftertreatment system was integrated on a bus and demonstrated. The performance test results showed that under the conditions of fresh catalyst and SV=30,000 h -1 , high NOx conversion (up to 90%) can be obtained in the range of temperature 350~450 . The aging test showed that
