Abstract
A method of desulfurization of a ceramic storage medium for sulfur oxides and/or nitrogen oxides situated in a gas stream, in particular a storage device for nitrogen oxides or sulfur oxides situated in the exhaust gas stream of an internal combustion engine, is described, a mixture having a low oxygen concentration being established in the gas stream to release the stored sulfur oxides. A measuring signal is recorded by an oxygen probe positioned downstream from the storage medium in a gas stream flow direction, the curve of this measuring signal being used to determine the loading of the storage medium with sulfur oxides. This method allows determination of the need for desulfurization as a function of the loading of the storage medium with sulfur oxides, to monitor and control the progress of desulfurization initiated and to check on how complete the desulfurization that is concluded has been.
