ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed at an engine exhaust system comprising: (1) a main catalyst located downstream from engine; (2) a honeycomb adsorber structure having an inlet and outlet end disposed in a housing and located downstream from the main catalyst, the honeycomb structure having a first substantially unobstructed flow region (a by-pass port) having an inlet face, and a second more obstructed flow region adjacent the first region (plurality of channels) having a second inlet face, the inlet face of the first region located upstream that of the inlet face of the second region; (3) a fluidics apparatus disposed in the housing and comprising a diverter body located upstream and proximate to the inlet face of the first region, a diversion fluid source conduit for directing the diversion fluid, proximate the diverter body; and, (4) a burn-off catalyst located downstream of the honeycomb adsorber.
