Automotive exhaust catalysis

TLDR
The general trend has been one of increasingly complex catalyst formulations in response to increasingly stringent emission standards as discussed by the authors, but with greater emphasis on optimizing catalyst formulations for lean-burn applications and reducing catalyst cost and complexity without sacrificing performance.

Synthesis of Boron Nitride Nanotubes Incorporated with Pd and Pt Nanoparticles for Catalytic Oxidation of Carbon Monoxide

TL;DR: In this paper, the reduction agent and stabilizer-free synthesis solely relies on the ultrasound treatment of the aqueous Pd2+ and Pt4+ precursors under the presence of BNNT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Syngas production from catalytic partial oxidation of n-butane: Comparison between incipient wetness and sol-gel prepared Pt/Al2O3

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied catalytic partial oxidation (CPO) of n-butane under autothermal condition over both incipient wetness (IW) and sol−gel (SG) prepared Pt/Al2O3 catalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical study of catalytic oxidation of CO on free PdxO2+ (x = 4–6) clusters: size dependent comparison of combustion

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors predicted the complete reaction mechanisms of the catalytic cycle and compared the size dependency of the CO oxidation barrier for free PdxO2+ (x = 4-6) clusters.

Effect of nano-sized cerium–zirconium oxide solid solution on far-infrared emission properties of tourmaline powders

TL;DR: In this paper, tourmaline modified with ammonium cerium(IV) nitrate alone was also prepared by a co-precipitation method, and the results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that tourmalines modified with Ce and Zr has a better far-infrared emission property than tourmalined modified with ce alone.

Rh-Loaded CeO2-ZrO2 Solid-Solutions as Highly Efficient Oxygen Exchangers: Dependence of the Reduction Behavior and the Oxygen Storage Capacity on the Structural-Properties

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that incorporation of ZrO2 into a solid solution with CeO2 strongly promotes bulk reduction of the Rh-loaded solid solutions in comparison to a Rh/CeO2 sample.

Twenty-five years after introduction of automotive catalysts: what next?

TL;DR: The union of catalysts and the automobile has been one of the greatest successes of heterogeneous catalysis over the last 25 years as mentioned in this paper, and there will be continued research and development activity focused also on downstream applications (i.e. exhaust emission aftertreatment), especially for fuelefficient, lean-burn vehicles, both diesel and spark-ignited.
