With the emission norms becoming more and more stringent along with the focus on reducing ownership and operating costs, the need to optimize the aftertreatment system becomes much more evident. Thus, the well monitored, optimized usage of urea or ammonia (NH₃) for the NOx reduction in an SCR system is critical to reduce the operating cost of the vehicles and to comply with emission regulations. In Ammonia Storage and Delivery System (ASDS), pure gaseous NH₃ from the NH₃ cartridges is being used for the reduction of the engine-out NOx in the exhaust stream over the NPF (NOx Particulate Filter). In almost all NOx reduction systems, NOx sensors play an important role in determining the amount of urea or NH₃ to be dosed for efficient NOx reduction with minimal NH₃ consumption and slippage for best possible fluid economy.
