Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method for operating an exhaust gas aftertreatment device for cleaning an exhaust gas flow of a motor vehicle with an internal combustion engine operated in normal mode with oxygen surplus. An oxygen store arranged downstream of an NOx storage catalyst of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device receives oxygen in normal mode, and during a regeneration mode emits oxygen for converting breakthrough hydrocarbons and/or carbon monoxide. The oxygen store is assigned to a particulate filter and/or an oxidation catalyst of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device. The particulate filter and/or the oxidation catalyst is arranged downstream of the NOx storage catalyst.
