Abstract

A control system includes a temperature module that determines a temperature of a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst, a derivative module that determines a derivative of the temperature, and a dosing module that regulates a dosage of a reductant supplied to the SCR catalyst to regulate an engine out NOx level. A control module generates control signals based on the temperature derivative, wherein the control signals regulate an amount of reductant accumulated within the SCR catalyst to reduce reductant release from the SCR catalyst during thermal transients.
