Zusammenfassung:An engine system comprises a fuel processor that is supplied with air and a fuel stream to produce a hydrogen-containing gas stream. The fuel processor comprises a housing, and at least a portion of the housing is located within an exhaust stream conduit from the engine. During operation of the engine, heat transfer between the fuel processor and the engine exhaust stream occurs. An exhaust after-treatment assembly is located downstream of the fuel processor and is connected to selectively receive hydrogen-containing gas stream from the fuel processor.
