Abstract: An exhaust emission control system of the present
invention comprises a generator (4) having a thermoelectric
conversion element for achieving thermoelectric
conversion by making use of heat of exhaust gas; an
exhaust purifying catalyst (9) disposed in the generator (4) or
on the exhaust downstream side of the generator (4); and a
heat conduction varying device for making heat
conduction from the exhaust gas to the thermoelectric
conversion element (15) variable between a high conduction
state and a low conduction state. When a temperature
of the exhaust purifying catalyst (9) is higher than a
predetermined temperature, the heat conduction varying
device varies the heat conduction from the exhaust gas
to the thermoelectric conversion element (15) into the high
conduction state. This permits the system to
efficiently re-collect thermal energy from the exhaust
gas and convert it into electric energy, without
increase in a time to arrival of the exhaust purifying
catalyst (9) at an activation temperature thereof.
