The apparatus comprises a gas storage means for storing hydrogen gas therein, an odorant-addition means for adding an odorant to the hydrogen gas fed from the gas storage means, and a temperature control means for controlling the temperature of at least one of the hydrogen gas stored in the gas storage means, the hydrogen gas fed from the gas storage means and the odorant.

Abstract: In an exhaust purification system of an internal combustion engine of the present invention, a silver-alumina-based catalyst device and NOX reducing catalyst device are arranged in the engine exhaust system. When a temperature of the silver-alumina-based catalyst device becomes a first set temperature T1 on the high temperature side, NOX released from the silver-alumina-based catalyst device is reduced by reducing material to be purified in the NOX reducing catalyst device. When the temperature of the silver-alumina-based catalyst device becomes a second set temperature on the low temperature side, NOX released from the silver-alumina-based catalyst device is reduced by reducing material to be purified in the NOX reducing catalyst device.

Abstract: In an exhaust purification system of an internal combustion engine of the present invention, a silver-alumina-based catalyst device and NOX reducing catalyst device are arranged in the engine exhaust system. When a temperature of the silver-alumina-based catalyst device becomes a first set temperature TI on the high temperature side, NOX released from the silver-alumina-based catalyst device is reduced by reducing material to be purified in the NOX reducing catalyst device. When the temperature of the silver-alumina-based catalyst device becomes a second set temperature on the low temperature side, NOX released from the silver-alumina-based catalyst device is reduced by reducing material to be purified in the NOX reducing catalyst device.

Abstract: A detector for detecting sulfur components having a storage portion for storing SOX and NOX in the exhaust gas passing through an exhaust passage and a temperature sensor for measuring a temperature of the storage portion. The detector includes a heater for heating the storage portion and determines the current heat capacity (C) of the storage portion on the basis of an increase in (T2?T1) the temperature of the storage portion measured by the temperature sensor and a quantity of heat (QH) generated by the heater when the heater heats the storage portion.

Abstract: The present detector for detecting sulfur components includes a storage portion for storing SOx and NOx in the exhaust gas passing through an exhaust passage, in which the more an amount of stored SOx increases, the more an amount of NOx that can be stored decreases, estimates the amount of stored SOx on the basis of an amount of NOx stored in the storage portion, and detects an integrated amount of SOx passing through the exhaust passage during a given period or an value on the basis of the integrated amount. In the present detector, the estimating of the amount of stored SOx for detecting the integrated amount of SOx or the value on the basis of the integrated amount is prohibited when a current amount of NOx that can be stored is not stored in the storage portion.

Abstract: An exhaust purification system of an internal combustion engine which is controlled so that a combustion air-fuel ratio becomes lean at the time of ordinary operation, provided with an adsorption part which adsorb unburned fuel which is contained in exhaust gas and an oxidation part which has catalyst particles of a metal which oxidizes carbon monoxide. The adsorption part includes zeolite which substantially adsorbs the lower olefins which are contained in the exhaust gas. The adsorption part and the oxidation part are arranged so that the exhaust gas contacts the adsorption part, then contacts the oxidation part.

Abstract: The present detector for detecting sulfur components includes a storage portion for storing SOx and NOx in the exhaust gas passing through an exhaust passage, in which the more an amount of stored SOx increases, the more an amount of stored NOx decreases, and which does not release SOx but release NOx at a set temperature, and a temperature sensor, estimates the amount of stored SOx on the basis of a relationship between, after the storage portion becomes the set temperature by heating, a heating pattern of the storage portion and temperature change of the storage portion measured by the temperature sensor, and detects an integrated amount of SOx passing through the exhaust passage during a given period or an value on the basis of the integrated amount.
