Publication number: 20110200522Abstract: A catalyst made by the introduction of copper ions and cobalt ions into a Y-type zeolite to produce a CuCoY zeolite improves the reduction of NOx in exhaust from a lean burn engine, such as a diesel engine. A dual bed selective reduction reactor in the exhaust stream comprising a first bed of BaY or of Ag/alumina and a second bed of CuCoY is particularly effective in reduction of NOx. In one embodiment, the exhaust stream is suitably treated with an oxidant, such as ozone, and a reductant, such as a diesel hydrocarbon or oxygenated diesel hydrocarbon, before the exhaust passes in contact with the dual bed catalyst.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2011Publication date: August 18, 2011Applicant: GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS LLCInventors: Byong K.

Patent number: 7891171Abstract: A method for reducing nitrogen oxides including NO and NO2 in an exhaust stream also comprising oxygen, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons at a temperature above about 150° C., the method including in embodiments oxidizing NO in the exhaust stream to NO2; reforming raw diesel fuel to produce OHC's from the fuel; adding diesel fuel hydrocarbons and their oxygenates to the exhaust stream for the reduction of nitrogen oxides; and contacting the exhaust stream with a reduction hybrid catalyst comprising BaY—Ag/Al2O3 to reduce the nitrogen oxides to N2. The method reduces NOx initially through the (HC+OHC)/SCR process producing N2, while also producing NH3 as a byproduct over Ag/Al2O3. The NH3 subsequently reduces NOx over the BaY—Ag/Al2O3 hybrid catalyst through the NH3/SCR process, producing more N2 and thereby enhancing the NOx reduction efficiency of the hybrid catalyst system.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2006Date of Patent: February 22, 2011Assignee: GM Global Technology Operations LLCInventors: Byong K.
