Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An exhaust gas purification system for an internal combustion engine, which is provided with: a selective reduction type catalyst arranged in an exhaust passage of the internal combustion engine; a low pressure EGR mechanism that is equipped with a low pressure EGR passage for introducing a part of an exhaust gas flowing through a portion of the exhaust passage downstream of a turbine of a centrifugal supercharger to a portion of an intake passage upstream of a compressor as a low pressure EGR gas, and a low pressure EGR valve for changing a channel cross section of the low pressure EGR passage; a supply device.

First claim
