A system for determining a reagent solution quality indicator includes a
reagent solution source for supplying the reagent solution to an
emissions catalyst configured to receive a NOx-containing gas
therethrough, means for determining a flow rate of NOx reduced from the
gas by the catalyst, means for determining a flow rate of the reagent
solution into the catalyst, and a control circuit determining the reagent
solution quality indicator as a function of the NOx flow rate and the
reagent solution flow rate. The system may additionally be configured to
diagnose reagent solution quality by configuring the control circuit to
monitor the reagent solution quality indicator over time and produce a
fault value if the reagent solution quality indicator crosses a reagent
quality indicator threshold, and to diagnose the catalyst by producing
another fault value if the catalyst capacity point falls outside of a
catalyst capacity point threshold.
