Abstract
A device and a method for reducing carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and soot particles present in the exhaust gases of diesel engines are provided. The device includes 1) a diesel oxidation catalyst for the oxidation of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen monoxide; 2) a first unit by means of which ammonia and/or a compound that breaks down to form ammonia can be metered into the exhaust gas that is to be purified; 3) a catalytically activated particulate filter, containing a wall-flow filter substrate comprising a catalytically active material that promotes the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides to form nitrogen; 4) a second unit by means of which ammonia and/or a compound that breaks down to form ammonia can be metered into the exhaust gas that is to be purified; as well as 5) a catalyst for the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides to form nitrogen.
