Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for reducing methane in an aftertreatment system of a vehicle are described. An oxidation catalyst is disposed in an exhaust path between an engine block and a turbocharger. The oxidation catalyst stores methane in the exhaust gas from the engine block during low temperatures and oxidizes the stored methane during high temperatures. The temperatures at the oxidation catalyst are controlled, in part, by operating engine cycles and/or a back pressure valve that can adjust pressure in the exhaust path and/or increase engine load.
