The apparatus (1) for treating exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine includes a storing catalyzer for absorbing NOxduring lean operating conditions and a device for burning fuel (3) in an exhaust gas stream (2) to produce a reducing atmosphere in the exhaust gas for storing catalyst regeneration and an aerodynamic control device for controlling the burning of the fuel in the exhaust gas stream, so that combustion is clearly improved when the engine is operated under lean operating conditions and no carbon is formed.

1. An apparatus for treating exhaust gas from an Internal combustion engine, said apparatus for treating exhaust gas comprising: a storing catalyzer (12) connected with the internal combustion engine to receive said exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine; means for supplying fuel to an exhaust gas stream (2) behind the internal combustion engine: means (4, 5, 6) for burning fuel (3) in the exhaust gas stream (2) to provide a reducing atmosphere in the exhaust gas; and aerodynamic means (7, 8, 9, 10, 11) for controlling the burning of the fuel (3) in the exhaust gas stream produced by said means for burning, so that substantially no carbon is formed, even during under-stoichiometric operation, said aerodynamic means including at least one swirling means. 2. The apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein said aerodynamic means (7, 8, 9, 10, 11) include at least one flow-restricting device (7). 3. The apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein said aerodynamic means (7, 8, 9, 10, 11) include at least one recirculating device (10, 11). 4. The apparatus as defined in claim 1, further comprising at least one bypass receiving a portion of said exhaust gas stream. 5. The apparatus as defined in claim 1, further comprising means for supplying air. 6. The apparatus as defined in claim 1, further comprising a cooling means. 7. The apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein said means for burning said fuel in said exhaust gas stream comprises a combustion chamber (6) and said storing catalyzer is arranged downstream of the combustion chamber, and further comprising a particle filter (14) arranged between the combustion chamber (6) and the storing catalyzer (12), so that said exhaust gas stream passes through said particle filter (14) to said storing catalyzer. 8. The apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein said means (4,5,6) for burning said fuel in said exhaust gas stream comprises a combustion chamber (6) and said supply catalyzer (12) is arranged downstream of the combustion chamber, and further comprising an oxidation catalyzer (13) arranged between the combustion chamber (6) and the supply catalyzer (12), so that said exhaust gas stream passes through said oxidation catalyzer (13) to said storing catalyzer. 9. A motor vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine, said motor vehicle comprising apparatus for treating exhaust gas comprising a storing catalyzer (12) connected with the internal combustion engine to receive the exhaust gas; said apparatus for treating exhaust gas comprising means for burning fuel (3) in an exhaust gas stream (2) to provide a reducing atmosphere in the exhaust gas and aerodynamic means (7, 8, 9, 10, 11) for controlling the burning of the fuel (3) in the exhaust gas stream produced by the means for burning, said aerodynamic means including at least one swirling means. 10. A process for treating exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine with a storing catalyzer (12), said process comprising the steps of: a) burning fuel (3) in an exhaust gas stream (2) from the internal combustion engine in order to produce a reducing atmosphere in the exhaust gas; b) aerodynamically by aerodynamic means controlling the burning of the fuel in the exhaust gas stream during strongly under-stoichiometric air/fuel conditions so as to produce substantially no carbon; and c) including at least one swirling means in the aerodynamic means.
