Abstract
An exhaust gas purifying apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes a particulate filter for trapping particulates found in the exhaust gases of the engine. The regeneration process for burning the particulates trapped in the particulate filter is executed by performing post injection of fuel. The regeneration process is suppressed according to an amount of fuel injected during post injection.
