Abstract
An exhaust gas control apparatus and method for an engine includes a urea water supply mechanism that adds urea water to exhaust gas, a SCR catalyst that adsorbs ammonia and removes NOx in the exhaust gas by using the adsorbed ammonia, and a control device that controls a urea water addition amount based on a target adsorption amount for the ammonia adsorbed onto the SCR catalyst. The control device executes an integration processing that acquires a temperature of the SCR catalyst at a predetermined cycle and integrates the acquired temperature of the SCR catalyst when equal to or higher than a threshold, and an initialization processing that decreases the amount of the ammonia adsorbed on the SCR catalyst on a condition that an integrated value of the temperature of the SCR catalyst calculated in the integration processing has become equal to or higher than a predetermined value.
