Abstract: The invention relates to an exhaust gas after-treatment device and a method, having a storage container and a buffer reservoir, both of which can be heated. In this manner it is possible to significantly reduce the energy requirement for providing gaseous ammonia for an exhaust gas after-treatment device of an internal combustion engine.

Abstract: The invention relates to an ammonia tank of an exhaust gas treatment system of a vehicle, having a tank wall. The invention provides that the tank wall is surrounded by a reagent reacting with regard to ammonia.

Abstract: In a device for dosing and transporting dry urea, e.g., for implementing the SCR method in a motor vehicle, the device includes a storage vessel containing the dry urea in the form of pellets, the wall of the storage vessel having an opening to which a transport line is connected on the outer side. The device also includes a compressed air nozzle which is arranged inside the storage vessel at a distance from the opening, is oriented towards the opening, and may be supplied with compressed air, and a portioning element having an upper side oriented towards the inside of the storage vessel and a lower side opposite the wall of the storage vessel. At least one continuous channel having a larger cross section than the dimensions of the pellets connects the upper side and the lower side in order to form at least one receiving element for the pellets.

Abstract: A method for loading a gas accumulator, which contains at least one solid storage material, in a first step, introducing a gas that is to be stored into the gas accumulator that is partially filled up with the solid storage material, the storage material expands by absorbing the gas, and, in a last step, additional gas that is to be stored is introduced into the gas accumulator, so that the solid storage material is compacted together with the gas contained in it. Also, a use of the method.
