ABSTRACT:
A purification system and a method for controlling exhaust gas emissions from internal combustion engines during start-up and restart, as well as during normal engine operation is disclosed. A method for controlling emissions during low load operation of a diesel engine fueled with a diesel fuel/methane mixture is also provided. Exhaust gases are contacted with a gas permeable solid material containing an adsorbent and a catalyst capable of converting the noxious components into innocuous materials. The flow of the gases through the gas permeable solid material is reversed in a series of continuing cycles to bring or to maintain the catalyst in a temperature range suitable for controlling the noxious components, below which temperature the noxious materials are adsorbed by the adsorbent.
