Patent ID: 11105285

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for exhaust gas aftertreatment in an internal combustion engine. For purposes of the exhaust gas aftertreatment in the internal combustion engine, an exhaust gas system is provided in which a first three-way catalytic converter is arranged, as seen in the direction in which the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine flows through the exhaust gas system, while at least another three-way catalytic converter is arranged downstream from the first three-way catalytic converter. Here, at least one lambda probe is arranged in an exhaust gas channel of the exhaust gas system upstream from the appertaining three-way catalytic converters. In the proposed method, a component temperature of the three-way catalytic converters is determined and compared to a light-OFF temperature. In this process, the lambda control of the internal combustion engine is carried out by means of the lambda probe upstream from the last three-way catalytic converter that has reached its light-OFF temperature.Moreover, according to the invention, an exhaust gas aftertreatment system for carrying out such a method is being proposed.
