Abstract
A lean NOx trap catalyst and its use in an emission treatment system for internal combustion engines is disclosed. The lean NOx trap catalyst comprises a first layer for storing nitrogen oxides (NOx) under lean exhaust gas conditions and releasing and/or reducing stored NOx during rich exhaust gas conditions, and a second layer, said second layer comprising a first zone for oxidizing carbon monoxide (CO) and/or hydrocarbons (HC), and a second zone for oxidizing nitric oxide (NO), and a substrate having an inlet end and an outlet end.
