Abstract
An aftertreatment system for treating exhaust gas includes: an exhaust conduit configured to receive the exhaust gas; a preheating oxidation catalyst disposed in the exhaust conduit; a primary oxidation catalyst disposed in the exhaust conduit downstream of the preheating oxidation catalyst; a selective catalytic reduction system disposed in the exhaust conduit downstream of the primary oxidation catalyst; and a controller configured to: determine a temperature of the exhaust gas at an inlet of the selective catalytic reduction system, and in response to the temperature of the exhaust gas at the inlet of the selective catalytic reduction system being below a threshold temperature, cause hydrocarbons to be provided to the preheating oxidation catalyst or to the exhaust conduit at a location upstream of the preheating oxidation catalyst. The preheating oxidation catalyst catalyzes combustion of the hydrocarbons so as to increase the temperature of the exhaust gas to above the threshold temperature.
