Abstract

Provided is an exhaust purification system including: an NOx occlusion reduction type catalyst (32), a catalyst temperature estimating unit (115), an NOx occlusion amount estimating unit (113), a regeneration control unit (100) that performs catalyst regeneration of bringing an exhaust gas into a rich state to recover NOx occlusion capacity of the NOx occlusion reduction type catalyst (32), an interval setting unit (118) that sets a target interval from the termination of the catalyst regeneration to a start of next catalyst regeneration, a catalyst regeneration start processing unit (110) that starts the next catalyst regeneration when the NOx occlusion amount is equal to or greater than a threshold and an elapsed time from the termination of the catalyst regeneration reaches the target interval, and an interval target value correcting unit (119) that extends and corrects the target interval based on the NOx occlusion amount when the catalyst temperature is lower than a predetermined catalyst activation temperature.
