Method for purifying internal combustion engine exhaust gas

摘要

In an exhaust gas purifier for an internal combustion engine having a trap for trapping particulate matters contained in exhaust gas discharged from the internal combustion engine, the present invention aims at suppressing production of ashes and thereby preventing pressure logs associated with the clogging of the trap. In order to achieve this object, the present invention provides an exhaust gas purifier for an internal combustion engine having a trap for trapping particulate matters contained in exhaust gas discharged from the internal combustion engine, wherein the trap carries a metal which has an electronegetivity equal to or lower than a predetermined content contained in fuel or lubricating oil for the internal combustion engine. <IMAGE>
