The challenges of an aftertreatment system for Stage V with SCR-F

Abstract
The introduction of the Stage V emission legislation requires a Particulate Matter
(PM) filtration due to the Particle Number (PN) limit.
The main objective of FPT’s Stage V development was to maintain the proven bene-
fits of the high efficiency SCR-only technology implemented for Stage IV (HI-eSCR).
In particular this involved low fuel consumption, compact and maintenance-free de-
sign as well as an overall robust layout.
FPT integrated the filter function on the SCR (SCR-F) in cooperation with catalyst
and substrate suppliers to meet all these challenging objectives. During the develop-
ment further challenges as the reduction of SCR performance due to ash loading as
well as the soot regeneration had to be tackled.
FPT’s HI-eSCR2 for Stage V reaches all emissions targets while maintaining the muf-
fler volumes and canning designs of Stage IV.
A description of the HI-eSCR2 concept for Stage V as well as the development chal-
lenges are described in this paper.
