Abstract
A monitoring system for a selective catalyst reduction system according to the present invention includes a selective catalyst reduction system that reacts with ammonia and reduces NOx, a first NOx sensor that is disposed upstream of the selective catalyst reduction system and measures the amount of the NOx that flows into the selective catalyst reduction system, a second NOx sensor that is disposed downstream of the selective catalyst reduction system and measures the amount of the NOx that is reduced, an injector that is disposed between the first NOx sensor and the selective catalyst reduction system and injects a urea solution, and a control portion that calculates reduction efficiency based on signals that are detected from the first NOx sensor and the second NOx sensor, determines the necessary amount of the ammonia according to the reduction efficiency, and controls the injection amount of the urea solution through the injector. The first and second NOx sensors are mean value sensors having a permissible deviation of ±6.7%.
