What is an automotive catalyst?
Combustion engines produce toxic emissions due to incomplete combustion of fuel and the generation of by-products
Automotive catalysts are needed for reducing these toxic emissions
Legislation enforces this by setting emission limits for vehicles Non-toxic by-products
•
Carbon Dioxide (CO2 )•
Water (H2 O)•
Nitrogen gas (N2 )Canning
•
Metal housing•
Insulation
Toxic pollutants•
Carbon Monoxide (CO)•
Hydrocarbons (HC, NMOG)•
Nitrogen Oxides (NOx )•
Particulate Matter (PM)
Washcoat•
(Inert) fine particulate support materials (Al, Ce, Zr, …)
•
Supporting precious metals (Pt, Pd, Rh)
Substrate (ceramic or metallic)
