Abstract: The present invention discloses an exhaust gas purification system for an internal combustion engine, which is provided with: a low pressure EGR mechanism that is equipped with a low pressure EGR passage and a low pressure EGR valve; a selective reduction type catalyst that is arranged in a portion of the exhaust passage downstream; a supply device which serves to supply an ammonia derived compound to said selective reduction type catalyst; and a control unit that causes said supply device to supply the ammonia derived compound when said low pressure EGR valve is in a valve open state, makes the amount of the ammonia derived compound supplied from said supply device larger in cases where an amount of the low pressure EGR gas flowing through said low pressure EGR passage is large, in comparison with the case where it is small.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to increase the NOx purification rate of an unactivated SCR catalyst in an exhaust emission control system for an internal combustion engine that has an oxidation catalyst and the SCR catalyst disposed downstream of the oxidation catalyst. In order to achieve this object, the present invention provides an exhaust emission control system for an internal combustion engine, including an oxidation catalyst disposed in an exhaust passage of the internal combustion engine, an SCR catalyst that is disposed downstream of the oxidation catalyst in the exhaust passage, and a supply device for supplying unburnt fuel to the oxidation catalyst when the SCR catalyst is not yet activated, wherein the amount of NO2 that flows into the SCR catalyst is increased by reducing the amount of unburnt fuel supplied, when a low-load operation of the internal combustion engine is performed.
