Abstract
An exhaust emission control device of an engine 1 comprises an NOx storage catalyst 9 which traps and stores NOx in exhaust gas and reduces the stored NOx according to an air fuel ratio of inflowing exhaust gas. A controller 6 determines conditions for discharging the SOx stored in the catalyst 9. When SOx discharge conditions are satisfied and the engine running conditions are in a predetermined SOx discharge running region, the controller 6 performs SOx discharge control of the catalyst 9. As lean air fuel ratio control is prohibited from when SOx discharge conditions are satisfied to when SOx discharge is complete, lean air fuel ratio control is prevented from taking place when the NOx trapping capacity of the catalyst 9 is insufficient, and increase of exhaust emission is thereby prevented.
