Abstract

An aftertreatment system comprises a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) unit, a reductant injector configured to insert reductant into the aftertreatment system, a first NOsensor configured to measure an amount of NOgases at a location upstream of the reductant injector, and a second NOsensor configured to measure an amount of NOgases at a location downstream of the SCR unit. A controller is programmed to estimate an amount of reductant deposits formed in the aftertreatment system based on at least the amount of NOgases measured at the location upstream of the reductant injector, the amount of NOgases measured at the location downstream of the SCR unit, and an amount of reductant that has been inserted into the aftertreatment system. The controller adjusts an amount of reductant to be inserted into the aftertreatment system based on the estimated amount of reductant deposits formed in the aftertreatment system.
