Abstract

See full text

A system and method for providing operating conditions that provide higher efficiency NOx reduction in a lean NOx catalyst coupled to a lean-burning internal combustion engine. A catalyst containing reductant is caused to attain a temperature greater than 300.degree. C. After a duration of about 10 seconds at the elevated temperature, the NOx conversion efficiency of the catalyst is increased in the 140-250.degree. C. temperature range.
