Abstract:
An exhaust gas treatment system for an internal combustion engine may have a reductant delivery system that delivers reductant to an exhaust stream in an exhaust aftertreatment system. A temperature sensor may be positioned in or near the flow of reductant and exhaust to measure the temperature of the reductant and exhaust. A change in temperature over time, such as an increase, decrease, or change in variation amplitude, may indicate the presence of a reductant deposit in the system. Detection of the deposit may initiate a regeneration cycle in which the operating characteristics of the system change to eliminate the reductant deposit to prevent it from hindering the performance of the exhaust aftertreatment system.

Claim (Index 18):
The system of  claim 16 , wherein the temperature sensor is positioned near a boss that extends from a decomposition chamber of the exhaust aftertreatment system, and a reductant delivery system of the exhaust aftertreatment system is configured to deliver reductant to the exhaust gas through the boss.
