| 摘要 |
<p>The invention relates to a device and a method for reducing emissions in catalytic converter exhaust systems for a vehicle provided with a combustion engine. The invention comprises a control unit adapted to control the air-fuel being fed to the engine so that a high concentration of hydrogen is generated in the exhaust gas during start-up of the engine. Furthermore, secondary air is supplied downstream of the engine during cold starting thereof for forming a gas mixture with the exhaust gas. This gas mixture is oxidized, so that heat energy generated by means of this oxidation is supplied to the catalyst, thereby providing a reduction of the light-off time of the catalyst.</p> |
