Abstract
An exhaust-pipe injection system capable of accurately monitoring a lowered injection pressure generated in a fuel line due to exhaust pipe injection and appropriately perform feedback control for the exhaust injection amount. The exhaust-pipe injection system includes: an exhaust pipe injector that injects fuel to an exhaust pipe of an internal combustion engine; a supply pump that sends a fuel to the exhaust pipe injector via a fuel line; a pressure compensating device provided in the vicinity of the exhaust pipe injector of the fuel line; a fuel pressure sensor provided in the fuel line in an upstream side from the pressure compensating device; and an injection control device that adjusts an injection amount of the exhaust pipe injector based on a monitoring value of the fuel pressure sensor.
