SCR exhaust aftertreatment apparatus, system and methods including multiple washcoat formulations

Abstract:

Unique SCR catalyst including multiple washcoat formulations with differing performance characteristics are disclosed. One exemplary embodiment is an apparatus including a catalyst substrate defining a plurality of flow channels leading from an inlet to an outlet, a first washcoat composition distributed over a first portion of the flow channels, and a second washcoat composition distributed over a second portion of the flow channels. The first washcoat composition has a lower ammonia storage density than the second washcoat composition.
