ABSTRACT:
A method for an internal combustion engine includes the steps of collecting exhaust gas in a volume (902) and flowing exhaust gas out of the volume in a first and a second portions (904). The first portion forms a tailpipe gas stream (906), and the second portion forms an EGR gas stream (908). The tailpipe gas stream goes through a turbine (910). The EGR gas stream is catalyzed by an oxidizer coating in a heat exchanger, and thermal energy is transferred from the EGR gas stream to the tailpipe stream in the heat exchanger (916).
