Plamen TOSHEV has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10876449
    Abstract: Method for operating an internal combustion engine which has a gas combustion system and an exhaust gas post-treatment system. Exhaust gas that leaves the gas combustion system is directed to at least one CH4 oxidation catalytic converter of the exhaust gas post-treatment system. The CH4/NO2 mole ratio in the exhaust gas is set in a defined fashion by at least one gas-combustion-system-side and/or exhaust-gas-post-treatment-system-side measure upstream of at least one CH4 oxidation catalytic converter.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 4, 2016
    Date of Patent: December 29, 2020
    Assignee: MAN Energy Solutions SE

  • Patent number: 9315391
    Abstract: The invention relates to an ammonia gas generator for producing ammonia from an ammonia precursor substance as well as the use thereof in exhaust after treatment systems. The invention further relates to a method for producing ammonia gas to reduce nitrogen oxides in exhaust gases, in particular combustion gases from internal combustion engines such as diesel engines.

  • Patent number: 8980208
    Abstract: An exhaust gas aftertreatment system for an internal combustion engine, particularly for a ship's diesel engine operated with heavy oil, has a SCR catalyst that uses ammonia as reductant. A nozzle is positioned upstream of the SCR catalyst viewed in flow direction of the exhaust gas. Using the nozzle, an aqueous urea solution is decomposed at a defined pressure and at a defined temperature to form water vapor, carbon dioxide and ammonia vapor such that ammonia evaporated by the nozzle is injected into the exhaust gas via the nozzle.

  • Patent number: 8955771
    Abstract: A device for injecting a liquid, particularly an aqueous urea solution, into an exhaust gas flow has at least one atomizing nozzle which is designed as a two-component nozzle and by means of which the liquid is injected into the exhaust gas flow by means of pressurized air such that the liquid can be mixed with the pressurized air first directly upon exiting, or after exiting, the respective atomizing nozzle outside of the atomizing nozzle. The atomizing nozzle, or each atomizing nozzle, has a nozzle base body, a nozzle air cap and a nozzle insert which are formed as turning parts. The respective atomizing nozzle can be connected to a nozzle lance via the nozzle base body, and the nozzle air cap and the nozzle insert are received and held in the nozzle base body.
