REDUCTION OF TAILPIPE EMISSIONS FROM GASOLINE INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES WITH A COMBINATION OF SORBENTS

An exhaust treatment system includes an engine, an exhaust line in fluid communication with the engine, a three-way catalyst downstream of the engine on the exhaust line, a particulate filter downstream of and proximate to the three-way catalyst on the exhaust line, and a sorbent unit comprising a f...

Zusammenfassung:An exhaust treatment system includes an engine, an exhaust line in fluid communication with the engine, a three-way catalyst downstream of the engine on the exhaust line, a particulate filter downstream of and proximate to the three-way catalyst on the exhaust line, and a sorbent unit comprising a first sorbent and a second sorbent downstream of the three-way catalyst and the particulate filter on the exhaust line. The first sorbent and the second sorbent are proximate to a tailpipe of the exhaust line. A method of treating an exhaust emission from an internal combustion engine during an engine cold-start is also described.
