Abstract

See full text

An NO.sub.x absorbent (19) which absorbs NO.sub.x when an air-fuel ratio of an inflowing exhaust gas is lean, while releases the absorbed NO.sub.x when lowering an oxygen concentration in the inflowing exhaust gas, is arranged in an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine. An SO.sub.x absorbent (18) which absorbs SO.sub.x when the air-fuel ratio of the inflowing exhaust gas is lean, while releases the absorbed SO.sub.x when the air-fuel ratio of the inflowing exhaust gas is made rich is arranged in the exhaust passage on the upstream side of the NO.sub.x absorbent (19). When the lean air-fuel mixture is burned, the SO.sub.x is absorbed into the SO.sub.x absorbent (18) and, at the same time, the NO.sub.x is absorbed into the NO.sub.x absorbent (19), and when the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture is switched from lean to rich, SO.sub.x is released from the SO.sub.x absorbent (18), and NO.sub.x is released from the SO.sub.x absorbent (19 ).
