  • Patent number: 11619157
    Abstract: A method for exhaust gas aftertreatment is provided, the method comprising: a) providing a nitrogen oxide-containing raw exhaust gas, b) introducing the nitrogen oxide-containing raw exhaust gas into a catalytic evaporator (1), c) introducing a urea solution and a fuel into the catalytic evaporator (1), as a result of which a reducing agent is obtained, and d) supplying the reducing agent to an exhaust gas aftertreatment system (8). Alternatively or in addition, a device for producing a reducing agent may be provided, a reducing agent produced with same, and the use of these objects.

  • Publication number: 20220259998
    Abstract: A method for exhaust gas post treatment is provided, comprising the following steps: a) providing a nitrogen oxide-containing raw exhaust gas, b) introducing the nitrogen oxide-containing raw exhaust gas into a catalytic evaporator (1), c) introducing a fuel into the catalytic evaporator (1), whereby a converted fuel is obtained, d) mixing urea with the converted fuel, and e) feeding the mixture obtained after step d) into an exhaust gas post treatment system (8). Alternatively or in addition, a device may be provided for exhaust gas post treatment.
