An exhaust-gas burner for an exhaust-gas system of a motor vehicle includes a combustion chamber, which is surrounded by an outer wall, for a channel section in an exhaust-gas system. A dosing unit is provided for the controlled feed of a fuel into the combustion chamber. An ignition unit is provided for the ignition of a combustible mixture in the combustion chamber. A cooling circuit is provided for the exchange of heat with the dosing unit, and is arranged within the outer wall of the exhaust-gas burner.

An exhaust-gas tract for a motor vehicle has an exhaust-gas burner that includes an air inlet connection for the introduction of air into the exhaust-gas burner. The air inlet connection has a connection piece in which a check valve for the closure of the connection piece is arranged. The air inlet connection has an air inlet flange which connects the connection piece to a combustion chamber of the exhaust-gas burner and which seals off the combustion chamber. A motor vehicle incorporates the exhaust-gas tract.

A holding device for an injection valve of an exhaust-gas burner of a motor vehicle includes a receiving section and a cooling-water jacket. The receiving section is shaped such that it can receive a front end of the injection valve. The cooling-water jacket extends around the receiving section and is shaped such that, after the holding device has been mounted on the exhaust-gas burner, the cooling-water jacket, together with a corresponding cooling-water jacket of the exhaust-gas burner, forms a cooling-water chamber of the exhaust-gas burner.

A catalytic converter for an internal combustion engine has a housing () and a catalyst element () formed in the housing (). The housing () is formed such that exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine can flow through the housing (). The catalyst element () is formed such that fluid can flow around and through it. Additionally, the catalyst element () has a plurality of ribs () on its surface () that faces the exhaust gas.
