REDUCTION METHOD FOR REDUCING THE OXYGEN CONTENT IN THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER, ENGINE ARRANGEMENT AND VEHICLE

A reduction method for a catalytic converter in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine for reducing the oxygen content in the catalytic converter, in particular after an overrun fuel cutoff mode of the internal combustion engine, the method including first injection of fuel into a first cylinder, the first injection taking place after an ignition point in time of a compression stroke of a first working cycle of the cylinder and including an introduction of the injected fuel from the cylinder into the catalytic converter during an exhaust stroke of the first cylinder.
