Abstract

A method for determining a nitrogen oxide emission and an ammonia emission in the combustion exhaust gas of an engine system having an exhaust-gas-guided internal combustion engine using an output-side nitrogen oxide sensor having a cross-sensitivity to ammonia. The method including: detecting a measurement signal of the nitrogen oxide sensor; ascertaining a partial conversion indication for each of multiple catalytic converter segments arranged in series in the combustion exhaust gas depending on local operating conditions with the aid of a provided conversion model that maps a local operating condition on the partial conversion indication; determining a conversion indication from the multiple partial conversion indications; and ascertaining a nitrogen oxide emission and an ammonia emission depending on the measurement signal and the conversion indication.
