    Abstract: A method for monitoring a thermal degradation state of a reducing solution contained within a reservoir includes the steps of providing a first functional relationship associating a quantity indicative of a temperature of the solution with a first parameter associated with the thermal degradation state, acquiring the quantity, and determining the first parameter as a function of the acquired quantity via the first functional relationship, wherein the degradation state is monitored based on the first determined parameter. The first functional relationship comprises an increasing function of a product between the running time and an increasing coefficient with said quantity of the temperature.

    Abstract: An internal combustion engine system is described herein. The system uses an additive added to the exhaust of the internal combustion engine to maintain a range of NO2 to NO within a range that provides for a fast SCR reaction in a selective catalyst reduction unit. The additive and the exhaust enter a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), whereby the NO2 undergoes a two-stage process. In the first stage, the NO2 from the exhaust is adsorbed onto the precious metal catalyst of the DOC and an atomic oxygen is removed from the NO2, reducing the NO2 to NO. Because of the higher reactivity of the additive, the additive scavenges a portion of the atomic oxygen from the catalyst. During the second stage of the DOC process, the NO is oxidized over the catalyst to form NO2.

    Abstract: A tractor including: a traveling body having an engine; a post-processing device configured to purify exhaust gas of the engine; and a reductant tank configured to store a reductant to be supplied to the post-processing device. A pair of left and right fuel tanks are arranged respectively on left and right sides of a longitudinally midway portion of the traveling body. A tank-accommodation recess for accommodating a reductant tank is formed at a lower-front portion of one of the left and right fuel tanks. While the reductant tank is accommodated in the tank-accommodation recess, an upper front portion of the fuel tank and the reductant tank are aligned up and down.

    Abstract: A control device and a method for deriving an engine-out NOx concentration in an exhaust system comprising a SCR catalyst, a dosing device for dosing a reductant, a first NOx sensor arranged downstream of the dosing device and a second NOx sensor arranged downstream the SCR catalyst. The method comprises deriving engine-out NOx concentration based on a first concentration reading obtained from the first NOx sensor and a second concentration reading obtained from the second NOx sensor, said first concentration reading being obtained while the dosing device is in operation. An exhaust system as well as a vehicle comprising the control device are also provided.

    Abstract: An exhaust aftertreatment system includes a first decomposition chamber that receives exhaust and treatment fluid, a first dosing module that includes a first injector that injects the treatment fluid into the first decomposition chamber, and a second decomposition chamber disposed downstream of the first decomposition chamber and that receives the exhaust and the treatment fluid from the first decomposition chamber. The exhaust aftertreatment system further includes a second dosing module that includes a second injector that injects the treatment fluid into the second decomposition chamber and a pressure sensor that generates a pressure signal based on a pressure of the treatment fluid in the second dosing module. The exhaust aftertreatment system further includes a variable resistor selectively switchable between multiple resistances.
