Patent ID: 11143075

Abstract:
An exhaust gas aftertreatment system for an internal combustion engine comprises an exhaust gas system with an exhaust gas channel in which at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment components for the selective, catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides are arranged. Downstream from the first exhaust gas aftertreatment component and upstream from the second exhaust gas aftertreatment component is a burner with which the exhaust gas can be heated up before it enters the second exhaust gas aftertreatment component. Downstream from the second exhaust gas aftertreatment component is an oxidation catalytic converter that converts unburned hydrocarbons. In a method for exhaust gas aftertreatment in an internal combustion engine having such an exhaust gas aftertreatment system, the exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine is heated up by the burner in order to heat up the second exhaust gas aftertreatment component for the selective, catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides.
